I went to a cool Thing at Parliament house last night. Dad's a subscriber to the Greens website and they sent him an invite to see a screening of "Outfoxed: Murdoch's War on Journalism" at the Parliament house theatre. It was cool, lots of hippy looking people, Politicians, workers, randoms, all there in Australia's home of politics discussing issues before watching the very very cool documentary. It was opened by the man himself, Bob Browne, leader of the Greens.
It was pretty much all about Fox News, its monopoly, bias, tactics and results of all previous stuff. The conservative grounding of Fox is unbelievable. Afterwards, Dad and I came out feeling lucky we live in Australia. We could never believe that this was on TV and that the majority of Americans tuned into it??!?!? I mean, seriously! They were saying stuff like "and that ends the news for tonight, remember people, just 212 days until Bush is reelected" .... O K
so yeah, quite interesting
