>The new movie, The Insider, has been heavily promoted, and critically
>acclaimed. It's based on a true story. The film stars Al Pacino, Christopher
>Plummer and Russell Crowe. It's a story originally told, for the first time
>on television. It all began when two of America's biggest journalistic
>stars--Mike Wallace of CBS's 60 Minutes and Diane Sawyer of ABC--appeared on
>air to announce that their networks were backing away from honorable fights.
>Both networks had prepared critical stories, but weren't going to run them.
>Both were about Big Tobacco. And both stories were being killed because of
>pressure from the networks' parent companies, worried about the effect of
>possible lawsuits on their corporate plans. By forcing their programs to
>back away from fights they very might well have won, network executives sent
>shockwaves through television journalism. Tonight, the story behind the
>movie: Butting In.

********************************************************************
Long have I looked for the truth about the life of people together.
That life is crisscrossed, tangled, and difficult to understand.
I have worked hard to understand it and when I had done so
I told the truth as I found it.
- Bertolt Brecht
