The day of Reagan's inauguration, the medOia reports the release of Iran's American hostages. On September 11th, 2001, the media does not report on literally dozens of firefighters hearing explosions in the towers prior too and during their collapses. The media completely ignores the thousands of protesters on Wall Street last week protesting the bailout. and that's just the beginning...

I am watching it, but any person that uses Michael Moore as serious evidence against someone else is laughable in my book. I really hope they don't over show him...he's disgusting.

This would be far better if it wasn't so into blaming one side.
Funny they should talk about being fair with balanced views when they, this documentary, isn't that well balanced itself.
There is, however, great information in it. Thanks for sharing.

I have to point out that there are people who have either been assigned to, or have taken up the task themselves to, monitor and respond to comments and postings, picking out easy targets that have been commonly labeled as easily dismissed in the past (such as Michael Moore).
Anyone who has been paying any kind of attention to the media in the last 10 years can relate to the accuracy of this film. It is to you that I speak right now. Do your best to spread the word, and understand that there will be those who will do what they have been taught to discredit certain postings and comments.
Anyone who would argue against the obvious, undeniable harm that certain elements of today's media has done to the democratic process in this country, and others, has aligned themselves with an agenda that will soon be evident to everyone, including them. The truth is coming out. Period.

Far better and makes this one seem like child's play.

What the corporate controlled media has done to this country, is astoundingly disgraceful, disgusting and a blatant betrayal of the public trust...
It's time to change this stranglehold over our country's people...the idealogical warfare that continuously supports the right-wing agenda in favor of the wealthy few and deliberately disregards the progressive agenda that would provide protection for and the free speach of the lower and middle class masses...
So, the reason one side is being blamed, is because that's who is responsible for these transgresssions... totalitarianism, despotism, fascism...that is the simple truth...
Whatever happened to real journalists and real journalism...who report the actual truth istead of propagating lies...

True journalism suppose to expose the wrong doings of the public and the government. I did said that true Journalism die somehow. Not completely! Some honest people are starting to come out, Thank GOD. However a lot of people are living in darkness. They have no time to use the internet. They come home and turn the TV on that controlled corp media. By the way, we are living in a Fascist Public and Government Society.

Whew! Long movie, but I enjoyed in immensely! The endless line of contemporary "muckrackers" are evident in their splendor. They made this movie exceptional in that they precisely hit the nail on the head when in comes to control by the mainstream media.
I especially liked the fact that the movie made special reference to how the mainstream media is connected to the conservatives in Government and the different facets of big business. Of course American citizens rose after they caught on to the deceptions, that includes so many instances concerning voter fraud, and colusion by the Supreme Court! I can't imagine why anybody would want to have a system that allows consolidation of media. It's so big and they have so much wealth and resources, it would only take antitrust laws from keeping them in check.
Thanks for the post jkw077! I know very well the fight isn't over from the Free Press messages I get.

I think this is one of the greatest and honest media commentary around covering the situation of the Corp Controlled Media in this Country. If you are like me concerned with the role of Media in the US both local, national and International this it is a must in our video library.
Just think about for a moment. This Corp Controlled Media helped to drive many innocent lives into their deaths to protect lies and a system of oppression.

Incredible documentary, thanks for posting!

Thank you for posting this documentary. I watched it last night - another excellent piece to understand better what we see, don't see, and why!
freedocumentaries.com is worth taking a good look at, full of eye opening presentations! -
As I watched this documentary, I felt the wet warmth of a tear or two streak down my cheek. They were tears of mourning, for American democracy is in its final throes of existence....
Without question, there is something sinister going on, and anyone who denies it is either blind or in cahoots with the "powers- that- be"...

Well I'm glad that I don't have a TV. What company owns Current?
