Live from Baghdad (film)

Live from Baghdad is a 2002 American war drama television film directed by Mick Jackson. The screenplay by Robert Wiener, Richard Chapman, John Patrick Shanley and Timothy J. Sexton is based on Wiener's 1992 book. The film premiered on HBO on December 7, 2002, during the prelude stage of the Iraq War.

Michael Keaton stars as Wiener, a CNN on-location producer in Baghdad, Iraq during the Gulf War in 1991. The film focuses on the news media's (primarily CNN's) coverage of the war. Fundamentally an action–drama, the characters grapple with the ethics and implications of 24-hour journalism in the days leading up to and during the United States-led bombing of Baghdad.
