a GREAT movie.

Network came out only a few years after Roe v. Wade set us on the path to our current culture of death. I don't know if the movie was meant as a warning, or if, by going to such extremes, it meant to mock those pro-lifers who feared the reality in which we are now living.

Lloyd, Are you suggesting that life is imitating tv? It's a pity that Shakur/Chesimard (or whatever) is still alive in that paradise of Cuba. Finally, did you see the pix of the Zizians getting out of the paddy wagon? They looked like fearsome revolutionaries, just escaped from some parent's basement.

I don't trust any of these talking heads.

Network was a real eyeopener for me when It came out.

Now we know WHY Megyn Kelly, go against Tucker Carlson. Fox News Would Not Approve!

BTW

"Red Seat’s client list includes former New York Times journalist Bari Weiss, former HLN host Nancy Grace, true-crime podcaster Chris Hansen, television personality Dr. Phil and former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly."
