MORE INFO:
Though history has witnessed many unspeakable horrors, only once has a highly cultured, highly technological nation attempted the "scientific" murder of an entire people -- and nearly succeeded. Though what happened is still in the living memory of millions today, millions of others are growing up with only a vague idea of what occurred, jeopardizing humanity's vow of "never again." Jack Lessenberry, head of the journalism program at Wayne State University, examines the media's role.
