false <![CDATA[DMZ Vol. 2: Body of a Journalist]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172273953m/158682.jpg 158682 3 America's worst nightmare has come true. Having neglected the threat of anti-establishment militias, the U.S. government is in danger of losing control. Middle America has violently risen up, coming to a standstill at Manhattan or, as the world now knows it, the DMZ. <P>Matty Roth, a naïve, aspiring photojournalist, lands a dream gig following a veteran war journalist into the heart of the DMZ. Things soon go terribly wrong, and Matty finds himself lost and alone in a world he's only seen on television. <P>In this volume, Roth's star power as a wartime reporter rises both within and outside the DMZ and the embedded journalist lands the break of a lifetime: an interview with the infamous leaders of the Free Armies. 153158 7 2 2007 DMZ Vol. 2: Body of a Journalist total:579|5:209|4:273|3:82|2:14|1:1| 579 2412 666 48 158682 1401212476 9781401212476 578 47 DMZ Vol. 2: Body of a Journalist 4.17 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172273953m/158682.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/158682.DMZ_Vol_2_Body_of_a_Journalist 2 2 false Sat Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Sat Sep 15 14:52:49 -0700 2007 Sat Sep 15 15:06:20 -0700 2007
Most of the book deals with the abduction of a journalist and the ways in which the government tries to use his experience as a propaganda tool, but this kind of forced drama just seems to squander the potential of the book's central idea.
