Homeland

A white mob marches on a mosque in Chicago. A priest stands and tells his stunned parishioners that their intolerance must change. In West Virginia, a high school girl writes on her shirt, ‘When I saw the dead and dying Afghani children on TV, I felt a newly recovered sense of national security.’ The school board calls it a ‘treasonous act.’ The president signs a $350 billion tax cut. The United States launches ‘preventive war’. Flag sales jump 150%. The flying flags cover a wound, but not the one we expect. Homeland sets a new standard for journalism.
