Can the Corporate Media Turn Lies Into Truth? Robert Kane Pappas, Director of: ^Orwell Rolls in His Grave^ Speaks Out

"Watching "Orwell Rolls in His Grave," it becomes increasingly clear that we can't see the forest through the trees, because with the consolidation of for-profit corporate media, the forest of information is pretty much owned by just a few companies. And those companies not only frequently create "facts" to enhance profits, but also create the frame through which public policy is debated to meet their business goals.

"Could a media system, controlled by a few global corporations with the ability to overwhelm all competing voices, be able to turn lies into truth?" This is a question Robert Kane Pappas, the director and narrator of "Orwell Rolls," undertakes to answer in a documentary that is both a journey through the harm done by corporate media consolidation and a testament to how relevant George Orwell's book on totalitarianism - "1984" - is today."
