"OutFoxed"
 
http://http.dvlabs.com/carolina/Outfxd2/Trailer_A(Med).mov

"Outfoxed" examines how media empires, led by Rupert Murdoch's Fox News, have been running a "race to the bottom" in television news. This film provides an in-depth look at Fox News and the dangers of ever-enlarging corporations taking control of the public's right to know.



The film explores Murdoch's burgeoning kingdom and the impact on society when a broad swath of media is controlled by one person.



Media experts, including Walter Cronkite, Jeff Cohen (FAIR) Bob McChesney (Free Press), Chellie Pingree (Common Cause), Jeff Chester (Center for Digital Democracy) and David Brock (Media Matters) provide context and guidance for the story of Fox News and its effect on society.



This documentary also reveals the secrets of Former Fox news producers, reporters, bookers and writers who expose what it's like to work for Fox News. These former Fox employees talk about how they were forced to push a "right-wing" point of view or risk their jobs. Some have even chosen to remain anonymous in order to protect their current livelihoods. As one employee said "There's no sense of integrity as far as having a line that can't be crossed."



Director/Producer Robert Greenwald has produced and/or directed 53 television movies, miniseries and features. He is the director of Uncovered and the Executive Producer of the UN series - Unprecedented, Uncovered and the soon to be released Unconstitutional.


...wow. Looks great. I've had the luxury here in Canada of not having to watch it so.. :) and people wonder how they watch this everyday and yet they still say they have not rigth bias is beyond me.

I think LESS things that have ANYTHING to do with politics is what is needed on these forums. Seems to me theres only a select few of Americans and Canadians that are keeping it up.

I think we should kill them. Who's in?

I think anyone discussing politics in general should just shut their cockholsters, always ends up with "omg america pwnz canada" duur. Fuckin tools. oOo:

Let it not be said this forum stifles opposing views. I dont see how this thread in anyway devolved into the Canada Vs. America bs so feel free to advertise your "documentary" Mr. Hand.
