The terms of a controversial 2006 Sky News interview are revealed through the responses of nine pairs of individuals invited to view it. Raising questions about the ‘truth’ of political reality, the manipulation and manufacture of narrative, and the ethics of personal conduct pitted against political expedience, each pair elucidates and complicates our received understanding of the media debate in question. In turn, the events debated by the Sky News protagonists – another instalment of regional conflict within the Middle East - become at once both blurred and unreliable, clear and compelling. As people’s personal commentaries unfold, bias, agenda and partisanship cease to be merely the domain of the corporate entity or the politician, but the backdrop against which our interactions – and compulsion to assert dominion over the truth – are played out.
