Where the Romans of old had their Coloseums to make sport of death and destruction, to entertain today's empire one must go to Hollywood; there, amid the detritus of American culture exist the new purveyors of homocide as theatre, mayhem as light entertainment. But what's running there is more than just entertainment. Today, killing games add a new dimension to the death as diversion for fun and profit business; and it's a business of strange partnerships. Robin Andersen is the Director for Peace and Justice Studies at Fordham University, and author of the book 'A Century of Media, A Century of War.' Robin Andersen and games without frontiers in the first half.

But first, Robin Andersen and a century of media, a century of war.
