Norman Solomon is an American journalist, media critic, author and activist. His latest book, War Made Invisible: How America Hides the Human Toll of Its Military Machine, was published in June 2023. In a starred review, Kirkus Reviews called the book “a powerful, necessary indictment of efforts to disguise the human toll of American foreign policy.”
Solomon's dozen other books include War Made Easy: How Presidents and Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death. The Los Angeles Times called it “brutally persuasive” and “a must-read for those who would like greater context with their bitter morning coffee, or to arm themselves for the debates about Iraq that are still to come.” The newspaper's reviewer added: “Solomon is a formidable thinker and activist.”
Solomon wrote the nationally syndicated "Media Beat" weekly column from 1992 to 2009. His book Target Iraq: What the News Media Didn’t Tell You (co-authored with foreign correspondent Reese Erlich) was published in January 2003, two months before the invasion of Iraq.
A collection of Solomon’s columns won the George Orwell Award for Distinguished Contribution to Honesty and Clarity in Public Language.
