"The World According to Bush" -- a Canadian Documentary will . . .
make it into SOME theaters before the Nov 2nd election. It is considered a "Compliment" to Moores F-9/11 and even more damaging to the Bush Family.

I cannot wait personally.

4. correction
the film is from France, though it was broadcast in Canada.

And you can buy a copy at Amazon.com for $14.99

p.s. what is stopping any American broacaster from airing it?

5.  what is stopping any American broacaster from airing it?
Backbone. Journalistic integrity. Freedom of media/speech.
you pick.

btw, what's the latest on Sinclair? I heard on the radio for about 2 minutes that i could stomach on Savage radio broadcast that they had backed down on showing anti Kerry film. of course the weiner didn't give any details about it.

anybody?

13. thanks
he was playing some audio from it. I listened. Kerry stills comes off as intelligent and determined with his point. Of course, it was out of context, and Savage ripped it apart with accusations of treason. But for the few minutes i listened, it wasn't damning.

i wouldn't spend the same 2 minutes viewing the same program. But was scanning the radio while on the road, and curiousity got the best of me.

14. They didn't show it here
in St. Paul, MN. It was listed for TONIGHT (Weds) under the "new name--POW, etc." in the Comcast guide for this evening and WASN'T SHOWN. Elimidate was shown instead. AND, it does NOT appear in the program listings for the rest of this week or next week's either.

Does this mean they backed down????

16. Don't give up on the good fight until after the election.
They are pulling this shit hoping we think we have won when we haven't. Now is the time to start really putting the pressure on the advertisers. We can win!!

10. Re: correction
Yes you are right it was originally a French documentary. It almost competed at Cannes Film Festival.

8. Hi
I was the chick who called into the Mike Malloy show about this documentary!

I'm so pissed off today, I have such a headache and I'm screaming inside. I can't take this shit anymore. The Rethuglicans are really pissing me off!

I just had to get that out.

as you were.

15. It aired on SBS TV in Australia in August
It is definitely a must see, best yet doco on the incompetence and insanity that is *. I have it on tape and have watched it over and over.

19. It's repeated tomorrow night (Friday) at 10 on CBC Newsworld.
So you have to get CBC's all-news cable channel to see it. It's not on the main service.

22. Sorry, but CBC Newsworld and CBC NWI are different services
with different schedules. And I don't think NWI carries the "Passionate Eye" documentary series, which is showing this film.

The domestic service schedule is here:
http://www.cbc.ca/programguide/schedule/dailySchedule.jsp?network=CBC%20Newsworld

And the international schedule is here:
http://www.nwitv.com/schedule/

Sorry about that. "The Passionate Eye" is a great series, and progressive Americans would love it. It's broadcast the Chavez documentary about the coup, The Control Room, The Panama Deception and lots of other great stuff.
