This is a pretty amazing documentary.


I think this started out as a homegrown documentary, kind of fuzzy
video about one family, and now there are all kinds of researchers
and pundits in it describing the history of the brainwashing media.

Just how and when the media became so right-wing ... back in the
70's when the richest people started controlling the government
though lobbying and bribes, and the revolving door of politics, jobs
and lobbying.

The FCC Fairness Doctrine lasted for 50 years up to the 80's and said
that the media should operate in the public interest. Wonder why they
had to change that? This documentary tells you.

They talk about the almost nothing but lies that Rush Limbaugh told
on his radio show, which is today echoed by the very President of the
United States who constantly lies.

This is another of the amazing documentaries that Americans need to
watch and understand.
