on DVD. If you have not yet seen this film, you must. It lays out in no uncertain terms how the media in this country has betrayed the American people. The entire press corps comes across like a bunch of wannabee middle school kids doing whatever they need to in order to get into the "cool clique" and journalistic integrity is the first casuality. The segments with Susan McDougal are particularly poignant and what she has to say will make you very angry.

...but media have a herd mentallity. There is very little originallity left in them. One could argue that they hardly cover real news which is what makes sites like this very useful. What's the movie about?

2. The red dress is something everyone can understand |

It was deliberate coercion of the worst kind, and shows the deep unscrupulousness of smiling Ken Starr at his best.
