ITT Contributing Editor Frida Berrigan, author of today's viewpoint marking the 63rd anniversary of the atomic bombings of Japan, was featured on Grit TV (with Laura Flanders) last night. Check out the short clip here.
After Frida's portion, the clip seques into a very, very bizarre music video about the Enola Gay and Hiroshima. I don't know about you, but a cheesy techno/macareana beat over CGI of the bombing doesn't seem like the most tasteful way to remember the deaths of tens of thousands of people. But that's just me.
