That is all.

1. Wow!

We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason...

Peace.

2. it's good to see Clooney gets it BIG time as to what needs to happen

to OUR media ... I signed up

[hootinholler]

3. I signed up too...

We need to promote this. WB needs to be awakened. Can you imagine if they get a million email addresses? 2 million?

Please consider keeping this kicked, or rec'd.

4. Bammm... me too!......

I signed up. Now I have to develop my filming skills and writing techniques.

11. Did you see him on TDS the other night? He takes it seriously

Didn't know until he was on with Jon Stewart that his dad was an old newsman. Very interesting Daily Show interview with Clooney. HE does indeed 'get it BIG time'.

[hootinholler]

18. No, I missed it.

Have to watch for the re-run.

Thanks!

5. Kick and recommend!

Peace.

[hootinholler]

7. Thanks Fooj!

We need to create buzz about this film. The kind of buzz that will scare the MSM.

The unspoken message from this film is 'You are NOT doing YOUR job'.

I'm thinking about writing a LTTE asking why the Librul conspiracy in hollywierd is dragging up McCarthy. :evilgrin:

6. Could we organize voter registrations tables outside for

opening nights across the country? It worked well for F911, could work well with this one too. OPening in October, perhaps that will fall well within most states required dates for voting in the election in November?

[hootinholler]

8. That's a great idea! n/t

[madame defarge]

9. Great film, great timing...

Man, I hope this film becomes #1 in the box office -- it's about damn time we remind the country what it means to report the truth about what's happening in our country and our world... The truth may not be pretty, but it sure has more impact on people's lives that f*ing runaway brides...

I can't WAIT for this film to open. (And George Clooney & David Strathairn are so good for my eyes & mind.)

[fooj]

10. C'mon everybody...this is our chance! Recommend!

Peace.

[havocmom]

12. Yep, more recommendations please!

This opportunity along with the movie release can do much for America, the REAL America!

Cudos to the producers to take this on in the present political climate.

[hootinholler]

15. Yeah I hope they filmed the discussions

When trying to get this project funded.

13. Only 2 more to go for Greatest...

Peace.

14. thanks hoot!

[hootinholler]

17. You're welcome!

16. Perhaps we need a FORUM? for BE THE MEDIA

a place to discuss just what needs to be covered and how? to strategize our efforts?

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

19. Nominated and signed up! This is way too cool! I just watched the trailer

again and WOW!!!!!!

[fooj]

20. Pretty good gig, huh?

Peace.:toast:

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

21. It's the kind of movie that I have been waiting to see for a few years now

Hopefully, George Clooney and Robert Downey Jr. can bring people in to see it. More important! Mainstream Media has to see this and become very ashamed of what they've done to us!


Peace right back at you and :toast: and a :hug:

[fooj]

22. This morning, Alex Witt (MSNBC) talked about it and said it is

a MUST SEE for all journalists! Wow. Just about knocked me off my couch!

:kick:

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

23. Alex Wittless? You've got to be kidding!!!! Wanna bet she doesn't

correlate it to what's happening today? Anyone taking odds here! Giggling :)

[fooj]

24. I catch your drift!

:smoke:

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

25. ;)

[hootinholler]

26. Thanks to all who rec'd this thread....

We really need to create what the industry calls buzz not only about this film, but about this campaign!

Damnit, this is important, and I'm asking for help here people!

-Hoot

[DemReadingDU]

27. sounds like a great movie!

[CBHagman]

28. Washington Post article on Clooney and the film.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/09/30/AR2005093000260.html

Note how they just HAD to mention Ann Coulter and Bill O'Reilly. :eyes: It's part of the Post's pattern of turning to that crowd for commentary on anything. Why couldn't they have turned to, say, a historian or some actual journalists for perspective?

[hootinholler]

29. Nasty tone to the fluff piece...

No mention of the associated media campaign, almost as if it's a stealth thing.

But the last paragraph is cool:
On the other hand, Clooney likes what he's created: "My job is to try to do films that I'll be proud of in 20 or 25 years." He smiles that killer George Clooney smile. "And this is one of them."

Thanks for posting it.
