Network (1976): "This is Mass Madness, you Maniacs!" 

*looking for the lie*

The technology for producing moving pictures has spread everywhere nowadays. Truth and knowledge spread faster than ever before, but so does the shit we just want to hear. We're in desperate need for truth, even discomforting truth, so keep turning to yourselves and discovering the truth around you.

I agree, but the tube thinks different.

Not to the mass morons that love the Kardashians.

Over the years it has, just not on the internet.

Why? It's not like he's saying anything everybody doesn't already know.

Word!

Sure is.

It was real then, too. But the condition went untreated back then so it only got worse with time.

It had already made Kennedy.

When you think about how old this movie is, it sure says alot about life today. The part near the end when he talks about the dehumanization of people it's almost scary. It is scary. I own this film & watch it atleast a few times a year.

You Tube

i didnt seen the movie but it looks like he pass away.

Well, it was not the first time he passed out in the movie, so maybe he didn't do it on purpose

I think he’s supposed to be actually passing out from exhaustion, but it is so common with Beale that the audience goes with it.

Oh he's given a dramatic exit at the end of the movie alright. More dramatic than this, but in a different way.

well if you take 3% of the us population (todays pop) thats 9810000 potential customers for the book business.

Books today have become just another form of TV. It's all propaganda. Every podcast is just a 3-hour book commercial.

@@andybaldman YEP! Most people take positions of office just to later "write a book" which ends up in them making "millions". Yea ok. They are just being paid off for 'keeping in line'.

To launder money.

Yes the launder money is spot on, look at all these supposed political pundits that sell trash books over and over, to be gate keepers and obviously the politicians too

Well they'll always know what they did, foreeeverrrr

i'm sure they killed him because he got low ratings

CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, all of them, they're all doing the exact same shit. The only thing that differentiates any TV news network from any other TV news network is that they cater to different audiences. If you want the news, you'd have better luck saying "fuck the outside world" and just reading your local small-town newspaper. If your local newspaper isn't on the verge of going out of business, however, then be skeptical of what they print. Generally speaking, the newspapers that actually give a shit about giving their communities unbiased news without catering to the masses are the ones that struggle to make any money. Newspapers that are financially solvent typically cater to the whims and desires of those who give them money to advertise in their paper.
