Noam Chomsky

This film is about the poiltical life and ideas of Noam Chomsky, it expands on the life of his book that he wrote a while back. The film presents the thesis of coprate media. They surve and further the agandas, and the dominate elite groups. A centerpiece of the film is a long examination of the history of the New York Times coverage. The mass media is as a system for communicating messages and symbols to the general populace. I liked this movie because it tells you about the political life and the ideas of Noam Chomsky throughout his life.
