The consummate critical examination of the Fourth Estate, once the bastion of American democracy.

This film isn't ancient, but I found it generally old hat by 2007. Might be of more use to others. It also makes annoying use of the same sort of sensationalist and manipulative reporting styles it criticizes.

"If Pappas's aesthetic is on the rudimentary side, it's more than made up for by his sheer force of will." - Ed Gonzalez

The content is great but the presentation and editing is extremely amateurish and cringeworthy - when viewed in 2021(!) it's so bad it brings up nostalgic memories of what the Internet used to be like 20 years ago. Interesting to see how fucked the US media landscape was going back to the Clinton administration.
