In this acclaimed documentary from the co-editor of Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media, 40 corporate insiders and critics -- including Michael Moore, Noam Chomsky, No Logo author Naomi Klein and Nobel Prize-winning economist Milton Friedman -- explore the nature and spectacular rise of the most pervasive institution of our time. Combining analysis with footage and advertising, television news and industrial films, The Corporation is an entertaining and provocative look at the inner workings, curious history, controversial impacts and possible futures of the modern global conglomerate.

10. You can order the DVD through their web site

The actual link to purchase the DVD is http://www.hellocoolworld.com/store/index.htm . Looks like the DVD is only available for purchase in Canada or the USA. There is also a book available by the same name, "The Corporation", which was written when the film was being made. I notice on the home page at www.thecorporation.com they are also accepting donations from people who have seen the film on Youtube etc. and would like to support the filmmakers in making more documentaries along the same lines.

5. OutFoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War On Journalism

"Outfoxed" examines how media empires, led by Rupert Murdoch's Fox News, have been running a "race to the bottom" in television news. This film provides an in-depth look at Fox News and the dangers of ever-enlarging corporations taking control of the public's right to know.

The film explores Murdoch's burgeoning kingdom and the impact on society when a broad swath of media is controlled by one person.

Media experts, including Jeff Cohen (FAIR) Bob McChesney (Free Press), Chellie Pingree (Common Cause), Jeff Chester (Center for Digital Democracy) and David Brock (Media Matters) provide context and guidance for the story of Fox News and its effect on society.

This documentary also reveals the secrets of Former Fox news producers, reporters, bookers and writers who expose what it's like to work for Fox News. These former Fox employees talk about how they were forced to push a "right-wing" point of view or risk their jobs. Some have even chosen to remain anonymous in order to protect their current livelihoods. As one employee said "There's no sense of integrity as far as having a line that can't be crossed."

7. Iraq For Sale

Iraq for Sale: The War Profiteers is the story of what happens to everyday Americans when corporations go to war.
Acclaimed director Robert Greenwald (Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price, Outfoxed and Uncovered) takes you inside the lives of soldiers, truck drivers, widows and children who have been changed forever as a result of profiteering in the reconstruction of Iraq. Iraq for Sale uncovers the connections between private corporations making a killing in Iraq and the decision makers who allow them to do so.
