After the plug by Kaz, I rented and just watched the Corporation (in two sittings— started it too late last night), tonight. Really excellent. LOts of video interview snippets from Howard Zinn, Noam Chomsky, Michael Moore, and lots of other top minds on how corporations shape so much of government policy, and sell themselves so that they have the people who suffer from their exploits supporting them in the process, so effective is their PR and media campaigning and “undercover reporting” (ie: pressuring of news agencies) and creation of “think tanks” that evangelize and distribute “news” for them.
Highly recommened by me as well.
