Infotainment on infotainment

Rating: 8/10 (5 November 1999)

This dramatization of the cave-in of CBS News to the CBS corporate interests is very well done. Although it is a dramatization, the film leaves you with the feeling that they were in fact understated in describing the complicity of CBS News in suppressing a truly important news story. In the end it brings an interesting angle on the whole infotainment transition of the network news.
