Previous Episode: Bob Roberts & Wag the Dog - the politics of spin
Next Episode: Star Wars: The Last Jedi - success or failure?
We continue our de facto Political Commentary block with Rod Lurie's keenly observed film from 2000, the year right before our new age of politics was truly born. We discuss the reflections of our current political climate, the parallels to Barack Obama (who was a complete unknown at the time), and compare the spin factor and tactics to our previous episode of Bob Roberts & Wag the Dog. It's straight from current headlines, and another film that is there to help us all see through the fog of propaganda.
