Al Gore, Cenk Uygur, The Young Turks, Ana Kasparian
Originally produced by Oscilloscope Pictures in 2014.
This acclaimed film documents the tumultuous, at times hilarious, and altogether astonishing trajectory of Cenk Uygur, The Young Turks’ main host and founder, as he traverses from unknown Public Access TV host to internet sensation by way of YouTube.. When he ventures into national television by landing the 6 PM timeslot on MSNBC, Cenk’s uncensored brand of journalism is compromised as he becomes a thorn in the side of traditional news media; his unwavering dedication to speaking the truth puts him at the very nexus of the battle between new and old media.. Winner of the Conscious Media Award at Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival. Winner of the Festival Award for Best Documentary Film at the Northeast Film Festival.. "Engaging." - Godfrey Cheshire, RogerEbert.com. "The film best serves as a cautionary anecdote that epitomizes the mutual apprehension between Internet-age start-ups and establishment media." - Martin Tsai, The Los Angeles Times
Mode of access: World Wide Web.
