Mike Shiley, "Inside Iraq"

This afternoon on my show, Mike Shiley talked about his movie, "Inside Iraq: The Untold Stories," in which he made a press pass at Kinko's, cashed in his frequent flyer miles, and went to Iraq with a digital camera to capture what life is really like there during the war.

He told remarkable stories about he became embedded with an Army unit, who gave him a 90-minute training session and then behind the gun on an Abrams tank as they patrolled an Iraq-Syria border town. Shiley explained why he thinks Iraq should be split into three regions -- Kurdish, Shiite, and Sunni -- and filled in some of the holes in the mainstream media's coverage (or lack of coverage) throughout much of the nation.
