How far we've come from highly literate communicators like Murrow. What will it take to make the pendilum swing in the other direction? The words still ring just as true today as they did 50 years ago. We need another Murrow now more than ever.

Test audience found McCarthy's impersonation in this film "over the top". Not realising it was historical footages. Telling, isn't it ?

In reply to Johan Bach....What a blind little baby you are....Probably a spoiled, little white, greed monger who doesn't have a clue about the real world....Dream on.....! How about another war to up the profits of your portfolio and the giant corporations....Dumb asses never learn.

I found that speech to be, ironically, entertaining and in turn this will result in me wasting 90 min watching this whole movie and not doing something productive. There is no escape.

While watching a recent segment on, of all things, the Daily Show with John Stewart, I could not help but think of these words. The segment detailed how CNN recently did away with its investigative reporting division because such reports were demmed "unentertaining" and "unprofitable." Indeed, television is being treated as little more than wires and lights in a box.

The depressing part is that all this is more than ever relevant, even though we had been warned so long ago.
