Description:
Critically Hailed and Absolutely Hilarious, the Emmy Award-winning TV Nation is Michael Moore's revolutionary, in-your-face series that combines real-life scenarios with sarcastic humor that makes shady politicians and corporate fat cats break out in a sweat. Garnering an audience of 10 to 15 million viewers per week on network television, as well as being a ratings bonanza for cable's Comedy Central, this popular program shows no signs of slowing down.
Expand description
Adventures in a TV Nation chronicles the best stories aired on this show, and includes behind-the-scenes scoops on how Moore and his associates got away with filming what they did and how they were able to get past network censors. From Moore's picnicking with Dr. Jack Kevorkian, to challenging the chairman of Ford Motors to change the oil of a Ford Bronco, to hiring a lobbyist to see how much democracy $5,000 can buy on Capitol Hill, this is a hysterical, honest look at the absurdities of American life and politics.
"A masterpiece.... TV Nation goes where no TV magazine has gone before". -- Newsday
