Review of Nobody Speak: Trials of the Free Press (2017) by Mpbpl — 01 Apr 2018
What a jumbled mess!
I am giving this documentary a 2 because the issues it brings up need to be discussed and brought to the lime light, the problem is when you try to put abusive media, paper owners possibly having conflict of interest with the paper and the media being attacked as fake news into one subject and as victims.
The Hulk Hogan v Gawker was clearly a case of abusive media not caring for a citzen's privacy and how they use the First Amendment to abuse this situation. The second subject does not show the owner using his power to dissuade the news, instead just shows that, probably, every paper has an owner.
And in the end we have 2 minutes of trump attacking the press.
In the end the documentary shows one part of the media that feels like this: "When we attack we are using the First Amendment, when we are attacked we are victims of a societal conspiracy trying to destroy the media".
