War on Whistleblowers: Free Press and the National Security State (2013)
Great documentary!
This documentary is very interesting and highlights the problematic ways whistleblowers are treated in America. The whistleblowers dare to come forward and tell the public about things that highly disturbs them in their professional lives - and they risk everything by doing it! Both their personal and professional lives are affected greatly due to the whistleblowing. While watching the documentary you get a sense that the people whistleblowing are people that do not deserve to be treated like criminals. Their concerns should be heard and the companies should react and change their wrongful actions. It is unacceptable that whistleblowers are not protected by the government, and that journalists cannot report on these issues without being afraid of harassment!
Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism (2004)
Awesome documentary!
This documentary highlights everything that's bad about Fox News. It is scary to watch how biased a news channel can be - especially when their own slogan used to be "Fair and Balanced". You want to laugh out loud in disgust an disbelief that Fox News in fact promotes themselves as balanced - when they are everything but! They are definitely doing everything WRONG when it comes to journalistic standards - and serving their very well thought messages to the people as "news". Fox News is a propaganda machine for very conservative, republican values - and at least they should own up to it and declare what they are - instead of acting like they are fair and balanced. It is a disgrace for journalism that a news channel like Fox News exists. This documentary is very powerful, and it is so important that people realize how biased Fox News is. I really loved the part where the hosts are all saying "some people say" - instead of citing actual sources. It is so ridiculous! I love that this documentary is showing these awful methods.
