Frontline: Truth, War and Consequences Frontline: Truth, War and Consequences

Since 1983, Frontline has served as PBS's flagship public affairs series. Frontline's stature is reaffirmed each week through incisive documentaries covering the scope and complexity of the human experience and by the series' 2003 News and Documentary Emmy win. In "Truth, War and Consequences," Frontline traces the roots of the war in Iraq and examines how administration infighting and faulty intelligence have led to continuing conflict.
