It is suggested that viewers see the movie "Truth" about a past form of censorship by CBS of a critical story about former US President George W. Bush. Kate Blanchett and Robert Redford are featured in that revealing film about acquiescence to government and corporate power by US media. The film is based on the memoir by journalist Mary Mapes - "Truth And Duty".
