This film showcases Noam Chomsky, one of America’s leading linguists and
political dissidents. It also illustrates his message of how government
and big media businesses cooperate to produce an effective propaganda
machine in order to manipulate the opinions of the United States
populous. The key example for this analysis is the simultaneous events
of the massive coverage of the communist atrocities of Khmer Rouge
regime of Cambodia and the suppression of news of the US supported
Indonesian invasion and subjugation of East Timor.
