I watched Network last night for the 3rd? time. It's been a while and I had forgotten this particular rant. So right on, and such a great flick. Enjoy.

JT, did you watch the one I recommended a couple months ago, The Fearmakers? It was pretty good, a lot of the plot revolved around how Madison Avenue manipulates public opinion.

I just found it on Netflix, Dak.
Thanks and I'll watch it this week.

You'll like it - dead on stuff from nearly 40-years ago.
