On the topic of media.

In the early 90's satellite TV was a new fangled technology still in its infancy. There were some major shortcomings that disadvantaged the broadcasters, the most notable is the lack of encryption in the feeds. Due to this problem the public could watch live unedited footage from news stations before they were due to come on air. Many times this allowed for a unique perspective into the spin and manipulation by the media.

Brian Springer recorded hundreds of hours of these live feeds and put together an excellent documentary 'Spin' in which he showcases his findings. It centers around the 1992 Presidential election. Enjoy!

I watch a lot of documentaries. Came across this one about a year and a half or so ago. I sent it to a few friends who were quite shocked by it. Great stuff, it really shows how much the MSM outright lies to us.

Really, who has ever heard of Larry Agran? He got screwed then just like Dr. Ron Paul is getting the shaft right now.

FWIW, star and flag.

No problem. Yeah, I had looked up Agran when I saw the movie, he's relegated to nowheresville.

I'm surprised that this video had not been put up here before. It's been around a while. I'm also surprised there are no responses to this. Seems quite sad to me, unless everyone here has already seen it. Between this movie and Outfoxed they really show how screwed up our media is.
