CGiii Comment

Fast-forward to the 38th minute...Pat Robertson (a bible-bashing televangelist) spouts his paranoid venom.

An interesting project that highlights the manipulative power the media has over each and every single one of us!


Watch...

The(ir) Blurb...

Pirated satellite feeds revealing U.S. media personalities' contemptuous plans for their viewers come full circle in Spin. TV out-takes appropriated from network satellite feeds unravel the tightly spun fabric of television, a system which silences public debates and furthers the intolerance of anyone outside the pack of journalists, politicians, spin doctors and televangelists who manufacture the news. Spin moves through the L.A. rebellion and the floating TV talk-show called the 1992 U.S. presidential election.
