SPIN - The Movie
As you could probably tell, I'm incredibly cynical about "news", especially that which is on television. The movie SPIN will make a cynic out of anyone when it comes to news.
The idea of seeing footage we (the masses) were never meant to see is enticing, and I bet this idea is ripe for a more up-to-date version of this documentary.
Also, attention-grabbing is just what a hateful piece of garbage Pat Robertson comes across as...that comes across already, but it comes across even more forcefully when the show goes to a break, and Pat murmurs..."that guy is a homo". When Pat thinks that someone who points out (as this caller did) that he's being hateful towards homosexuals is gay, I think Pat is protesting too much.
