Predatory Political Documentaries

Is ‘Hillary: The Movie' a Campaign Ad or Legit Film?

— March 22, 2009 — Social Good
“Hillary: The Movie” is a political documentary about Senator Hillary Clinton that is being screened for the justices of the Supreme Court and will be argued over on Tuesday. It’s an intensely powerful film that marshals forth evidence to suggest that Senator Clinton was unfit to run for president.

Not surprisingly, the film is met with significant criticism. Detractors of “Hillary: The Movie” say that the “documentary” is nothing but a 90-minute attack ad. Proponents of the film defend it as a critical news documentary akin to “Frontline” or “60 Minutes,” and cite the First Amendment as just cause to screen the film.

Check out the trailer for “Hillary: The Movie” above and see what you think.
