Beck, Limbaugh, half of Fox...I started to say "What happened to the American pulbic?" But I think this has been around forever. The movie was just prescient in its understanding of how media can create a monster of such greater magnitude than before.

Damn fine movie. Miss you, Andy. <<<<shudder>>>>
