[Pen-l] The Real McCain

[Louis Proyect <lnp3@xxxxxxxxx>]

As a member of New York Film Critics Online (NYFCO), I get lots of 
screeners sent to me even when I don't request them, including Robert 
Greenwald's 60 minute documentary "The Real McCain". This can be 
ordered from the ironically named Disinformation Company Ltd. 
Disinformation also includes 9/11 "truth" movies in its inventory 
that I have received but not reviewed. That's because I said 
everything I wanted to say on the topic after seeing "Loose Change".

Since Greenwald is responsible for "Iraq for Sale", one of the better 
documentaries that Disinformation puts out, I was curious to see what 
he had to say about McCain. The documentary can best be described as 
a kind of infomercial for Greenwald's "viral videos" attacking the 
Republican candidate. The DVD contains 10 of Greenwald's videos that 
he hopes will attract as many viewers as "Leave Brittainy Alone" and 
other such classics. In between each video, you can see Greenwald or 
other McCain haters explaining how important his work is. I suppose 
they should know.
