1) What does Deborah Scranton mean by the “disconnect” she hopes to “bridge” with her documentary?
The disconnection between our society in North America and our troops in Afghanistan and Iraq. There is almost no information given to us about the war in Iraq.

2) How does media (television, news, documentaries, film) contribute to creating this disconnect?
They are the ones who are supposed to be giving us the information on what's happening over there but they can and do leave out information.

3) How can a documentary like "War Tapes" help remedy or bridge this disconnect?
It lets us see through the soldiers eyes and brings a new light/viewpoint to something that not many North Americans know.
