Trailer and review for new "The Corporation" documentary (must see!)

Wired review:

Take the power and cultural reach of the Roman Catholic Church, the British monarchy or the Soviet Communist Party at their respective heights. Add a suit and tie and lots of legal wiggle room. Plaster logos on every square inch of available space. Replace any deep sense of social responsibility with a profit motive. Boom! You'll have The Corporation, the most pervasive political-cultural force in the world.

At least that's the argument filmmakers Mark Achbar, Jennifer Abbott and Joel Bakan build in The Corporation, a provocative new documentary opening this week in San Francisco and later this summer in cities around the country.

This quote in the trailer is chilling. "We just paid $3 billion for these television stations, the news is what we say it is."

2. The first I've heard of this!

Great news! It's going to be a busy movie summer:

The Corporation
F 9/11
Clinton's movie --- can't remember the name at the moment.

Dems are going to be ramping up to the election in a big way.

... viewing these previews is making me feel better than I have during the past three years. Do they say, "the Truth always comes home to roost"?
