+Let's dance!
+Hello and welcome to today's episode of Hacker Public Radio.
+I will be your host for today, Deep Geek.
+Over my several years I have enjoyed many rants while listening to the podcasts and the
+internet radio shows that we've come familiar with.
+And I hope you can imagine my surprise when I found a documentary that showed how
+the situation all these rants were about came about to be.
+I have enjoyed listening to the rants of dual about how the media has become a wasteland
+about how lousy clear channel communication stations are and how we should become the
+media.
+I've also enjoyed thanks rants about the corruption of our government in Washington and how bad
+the RIA and MPAR.
+I was searching through some bit torrent search engines to see if I could possibly find
+out about a documentary mentioned on binary revolution radio about George Orwell's life.
+But instead I found something else that I thought was so informative to us as Geeks
+and hackers and I found it only because it had Orwell in its title.
+So I want to give a detailed review of a film that documents the merging of the following
+elites in American society, the financial elite, the political elite, and the media elite.
+And the film I want to review for you today is called Orwell Roles in His Grave and came
+out in 2003.
+It was directed by Robert K. Papas and many notable people appeared in this documentary.
+There's Charles Lewis who is a former 60 minutes producer, Peter Mitchell Moore, a former
+editor of the New York Post, Professor Robert Mick Chasney, founder of mediareform.net.
+Michael Moore, which we all know as a documentary director and is also an author, a representative
+from Vermont, representative Bernie Sanders, U.S. congressman, Vincent Bugliosi, who's a legal
+scholar who successfully prosecuted Charles Manson and wrote the book The Betrayal of
+America.
+And I will go through several main points and also list several of the scandals that were
+documented by this film.
+Main points that the media is now a special interest, a lot like the tobacco and automotive lobbies,
+they function a lot like the Ministry of Truth in George Orwell's novel 1984, although
+it is enhanced by their usage of what we call valorization.
+Valorization is a term that refers to the fact that if enough people repeat the same
+lie enough times, people will believe them no matter what.
+Another main point is that the financial elite and the political elite have merged.
+Most of the powers that be has dropped to less than 25% of the American people trusting
+their government.
+This figure, this 25% is a third of the same figure at the height of our country's Vietnam
+war scandal.
+So this figure which is so low is the symptom or the problem that caused the symptom of
+people just refusing to vote, people feeling that they have no representation of Washington
+that they cannot have a voice in our government.
+That's because of this.
+The consolidation of the media, whether it be the thousands of radio stations or the hundreds
+of cable channels, does not represent a diversity of viewpoint because they are owned by the
+same small number, less than a dozen of media companies.
+That the media is the largest lobbyist in Washington and they also have a unique ability
+to sense with politicians at will.
+And also the media is owned by the wealthiest percentiles of our country.
+Conservatives and Republicans are funding think tanks which create a future, our country's
+future, right ring propagandists, let's have trouble saying that right ring propagandists.
+This constitutes an a form of ideological warfare against the American people.
+And this is where our interests should peak that the internet is being changed from open
+access to closed access.
+By the telcos, the cable and media interests.
+This from a movie in 2003 which successfully predicts the reasons that will be given
+to try to sell this to the American people.
+This has become known as the net neutrality debate.
+So this documentary, you know, it elucidates on those main points, but also shows those
+main points through several scandals of recent times that it documents.
+The scandals such as the Bush Brother Collusion to disenfranchise voters in Florida in 2000.
+The involvement of the Supreme Court justices to squelch all efforts of a fair vote count
+in Florida on behalf of a party which so often speaks of state rights.
+The October surprise to out present Jimmy Carter and replace him with the Republican president.
+Also documents another scandal how FCC regulations being changed against the will of the American
+people to allow for the mass purchases of radio stations by monopoly style companies such
+as clear channel communications.
+How legal bribes actually work for both FCC officials as well as congressmen and senators.
+Also the subsequent ability of senate organizations to financially punish those who publicly disagree
+with them.
+So I think this documentary is a fantastic documentary.
+I hope you all will try to rent a coffee or borrow a coffee from a library or perhaps even
+purchase a coffee to check out and enjoy.
+And that I hope this enhances your understanding of the world and which we live in.
+Today's geek tidbit, I promised you guys a little bit of poetry so I'm going to share
+with you a geek high coup written by Charlie Gibbs.
+Eris have occurred.
+We won't tell you where or why lazy programmers.
+Thank you and that concludes today's episode of Hacker Public Radio.
