WHAT’S IT ABOUT THEN?

Film-maker Robert Greenwald probes deep inside the Fox News Corporation in search of the moral and ethical corruption that he is convinced lies at it’s heart.

SO IS IT ANY GOOD?

These days it seems the only ones telling it like it really is are the documentary film-maker’s, especially those with some kind of agenda. Of course the media has always manipulated the news to it’s own ends, trying to make us believe what it wants us to believe and arch leader of that for some years now has been Rupert Murdoch the Australian who has chosen global world domination as his career plan, it seems to going well too with the thousands of media outlets that Murdoch owns, chief among them of course being Fox and in particular it’s news network.

Superb stuff Outfoxed shows us how it is in the Fox newsroom, with interviews with former key players and media watchdogs, the key material is provided by Fox itself though with it’s skewiff approach to the recent US election and their pro-Bush propaganda, every second of Fox’s news output was examined 24 hours a day by a team of volunteers looking for bias in it’s programming and it found it by the bucketload.

Yes at the end of the day Outfoxed is not really telling us anything we don’t already know but as we sit by and let just a few people govern what we see and feed off then it’s what they don’t tell us that makes Outfoxed absolutely essential viewing.

ANY SPECIAL FEATURES?

A making of featurette, film-maker bios, a specially shot message to Australia from the director, the original trailer and a text based Easter Egg which features the Fox team responding to the movie.
