Part The Last of a fine documentary on Big Media, Big Government, Big Money, lies, propaganda, social control, and other good reasons to shoot your TV set. Foci are (1) why Clear Channel's First-Amendment rights trump yours; (2) the Media's active role in staging and then covering up the US *coup d'etat* of November 2000. Includes impressive analysis by Vincent Bugliosi.
