| Comment by AS: | As a documentary, the movie fails in two ways: it doesn't clarify the ways in which Rupert Murdoch is involved in White House our politics. It is just noted that he is a republican. Maybe there is nothing more, but there is a feeling that the research wasn't properly carried out. Also, there is not a word about legal issues: how is it possible that propaganda, disguised as news, is legal? Is the fraud that Fox News can portray itself as fair & balanced backed by the reedom of speech act? Do the media watchdogs have no power at all? |
