DOCUMENTARY - "Orwell Rolls In His Grave" AMAZING look at the media!
This is an excellent breakdown of the problems we are having as a democracy as a function of the media serving the corperate interests instead of ours. Great to show or link to people still watching the MSM for ANY news, the 1st step for everyone still in the dark is to get them of the TV news. Progressive talk and the right Internet sites (and word of mouth) are all we have to wake up the people! I totally agreed when they called this issue the most important problem we face!

So, watch this.. learn, and then do what you can to fight propaganda and to bring awareness to as many other Americans as you can!

"Director Robert Kane Pappas’ "Orwell Rolls In His Grave" is the consummate critical examination of the Fourth Estate, once the bastion of American democracy. Asking whether America has entered an Orwellian world of doublespeak where outright lies can pass for the truth, Pappas explores what the media doesn’t like to talk about: itself."

1. Orwell is actually SPINNING in that grave of his.
Twirling. Doing sommersaults. I'm surprised he hasn't stumbled out of the crypt all zombified, crying for Bush's head.
