Is 'Outfoxed' Worth Buying?
What is the feedback from people who've seen/bought it, do you think it was worth the $10?

Did you learn anything new that you couldn't have realized from sitting down and watching Faux News for 5 minutes any day of the week?

2. Yes it is worth it, but you can get it here for $5.99 plus...
free shipping. Buy it and pass it on to an uninformed friend when you are done.

7. Yes, it was
Without a doubt, it was. It's something to keep for our future generations to see.

8. yes; you learn that TV producers do in fact get marching orders
from above - from the powers that run the corporations who own the media.
Mind you that Fox is an extreme case, but not unique.

13. Very worth it! I don't watch Fox News, and what I saw in this
documentary made me so goddam mad I could hardly see. Yes, you will learn more than you want to know about how Fox is run.

14. You are kidding, Right?
It is worth every dollar and then some. I know someone that is making multiple copies and handing them out. No Charge, period. Interesting question, I say "freeper", but then I could be wrong.

15. Abso-freakin-lutely
True, anyone with 1000+ posts on DU is not going to "learn" anything from the movie. But, it's a way to slide some cash to the folks who made the film (they also made "Uncovered"), and you'll then have a copy that you can pass around to people who may not be clued in to what's going on over at FUX.

And, even for the well-informed, there are some fairly shocking moments in the film brought about by the quick-editing of certain key phrases being repeated over and over and over. If anyone doubts after seeing this that there is an intentional effort to brainwash being conducted at that network, then they are already too far gone to be saved.
