Director and actor Rob Reiner brings his new journalism film “Shock and Awe,” based on a true story, to “Salon Talks.” The film follows the Knight Ridder journalists, played by Woody Harrelson and James Marsden, who reported the lack of evidence of weapons of mass destruction leading up to the 2003 Iraq War when no one else did. Reiner calls the film “a cautionary tale of what’s at stake for the survival of self-governance.”
