ART SOMETIMES CAN BE SAVAGELY ACCURATE IN ITS PREDICTIONS, and so it is with the movie classic Network, and its epic “prophet of the airwaves,” UBS’ anchor Howard Beale (Peter Finch), who’s exploited ruthlessly by the corporate suits while having a nervous breakdown. But here’s the kick: Howard Beale’s “insanity” is saner than all the smooth spin dished out by the prostituted voices emanating from the system. It is a parable that finally has come true. —PG

IF YOU THINK THE LAMESTREAM MEDIA ARE A DISGRACE AND A HUGE OBSTACLE
to real change in America why haven’t you sent at least a few dollars to The Greanville Post (or a similar anti-corporate citizen’s media?). Think about it. Without educating and organizing our ranks our cause is DOA. That’s why our new citizens’ media need your support. Send your badly needed check to “TGP, P.O. Box 1028, Brewster, NY 10509-1028.” Make checks out to “P. Greanville/ TGP”. (A contribution of any amount can also be made via Paypal and MC or VISA.)
THANK YOU.
