Some of the concerns about media that you mention are reasons why I threw myself into media activism and subsequently, graduate school and working at a newspaper. The critical role of news media in a democracy cannot be over stated. It is sad that this institution has deteriorated to such a pathetic, self-serving mess that we see today. Mr. Beal's rants echo into our time and we are seeing the results — a decaying democracy. This movie should be required viewing. Thanks for bringing the film to our attention, Sue.Tom Blaziernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11103434.post-346263276124301602017-04-18T09:56:15.241-06:002017-04-18T09:56:15.241-06:00Thanks again for visiting!Thanks again for visiting!Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04779183231776072253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11103434.post-22345266711202731002017-04-18T09:55:31.211-06:002017-04-18T09:55:31.211-06:00That scene was fantastic!

So many great scenes like when Ned Beaty gives his speech to Peter Finch in the giant darkened conference room. The camera work alone is amazing for that scene. Really a true classic. So glad you posted about this movie.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04172950855059589022noreply@blogger.com
