From the Frontline: Jon Ronson @7pm UK time – watch here

November 14th, 2008Posted by Judith Townend in Events

Live stream from the Frontline Club tonight: ‘Insight with Jon Ronson’. Peter Curran will chair tonight’s event.

“Why are Iraqi prisoners of war being forced to listen to Barney the Purple Dinosaur’s theme tune repeatedly, at top volume? Why have 100 de-bleated goats been secretly placed inside the Special Forces command centre at Fort Bragg, North Carolina? Has the US army really enlisted the help of Uri Geller? In The Men Who Stare at Goats, soon to be made into a feature film with an all-star cast, author Jon Ronson searches for answers to these and many other questions, revealing some of the extraordinary beliefs at the core of the War on Terror.”

UPDATE: we have removed the video portion while we search for the right archived footage from the frontline.
