Has anyone seen it? I just saw it tonight & thought it was very relevant to so much of the conversation on this forum.

"I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank." - Barack Obama
when you told me 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'
i was thinkin 'death before dishonor'
A good read about the media is Media Monopoly - http://benbagdikian.net/index.htm
Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis

Yeah, I studied about this stuff in my communications & journalism classes in college. And I agree that there's a problem across the board. I did think it was notworthy, though, that Rupert Murdoch has SO MUCH more power than all the others.
You've reminded me of another good saying: The revolution will not be televised. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsO4u46wIlk
Somehow I missed the Monsanto segments. :?
No, I haven't seen The Corporation. But my friends and I decided last night that it would be the next film we watch. One of my friends had already seen it and loved it.
now that i think about it i think the monsanto segment is in the corporation, it's about 3 fox news journalists that had their story pulled because it wasn't flattering to monsanto and the 3 were then fired when they refused to re-edit it to be more positive towards monsanto

It figures. Ya know, I think people should be able to spin things to fit whatever perspective they like - but this should never ever be confused with actual news. It's that giant blurry line (or lack of a line) that's causing us problems.
"I've never used the phrase 'shut up', ever!"
Bill O'Riely: "Shut up!"
"Will you shut UP?"
"some body pull his mic. Shut him up!
Shut up, just shut up!"
Nope, never seen it.
If I opened it now would you not understand?
