NOTES

Special features: extended interviews with the stars of the film; behind-the-scenes of the making-of the film; interviews with the "media monitors" around the country who watched Fox 24-7

Examines Rupert Murdoch's Fox News media empire. Takes an in-depth look at Fox News and the dangers of ever-enlarging corporations taking control of the public's right to know. Examines how the FCC helped Murdoch break the rules to establish a fourth network in the United States. The film explores the impact on society when media is controlled by one person. A system was created to monitor Fox News 24 hours a day for months to discover exactly how its shows worked. The result is an intense examination of Fox News and the lie inherent in its favorite motto "Fair and Balanced"
