Ramadan has begun in Londonistan. It's another sign of how Islam is encroaching on Western culture, says Tim Dieppe. It's a long time since critics of any other religion were imprisoned. But don't you dare insult Islam!

Ofcom has been hounding GB News for its 'bias' in not being uniformly Left-wing. David Craig wonders when the brave regulator will notice that Times Radio pours forth anti-Trump bile all day long and takes action there.

Videoactive: 2pm - Outfoxed: Rupert Murdock's War on Journalism

category dublin | arts and media | event notice author Friday October 22, 2004 16:31author by k Report this post to the editors

Film fest.

Saturday 2pm Screening
Outfoxed: Rupert Murdock's War on Journalism (77 mins) + Trailer: Bush in Ireland: 100,000 Unwelcomes (30 Mins)
"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."

I thought outfoxed was one of the best films of the festival - only because it was so funny and scary at the same time. the level of insanity among the presenters would be hilarious if they werent dealing with such serious issues. the slant of the yank media to the right as well (the fox effect) probably swung the election for Dubya... four more years...
