Breaking the News!

"The WORST prison in the world - is the one you don't know you are in." Breaking The News is an investigative documentary taking an in-depth look at how today's mainstream media operates, why it's failing and how it affects our sense of truth. In a new era of media where sensationalism has supplanted substance, can we the people change the way media delivers the news from the outside-in? Breaking the News walks a thin line between those who report the news and those who seek to manufacture it. We reveal how the system works behind the scenes and how it's manipulated. This unprecedented film paints a vivid, in-depth picture of mainstream news media's slow disintegration from the golden years of Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite to the sensationalist news media circus it is today. To help make sense out of the chaos, we are in the midst of developing an A.I. platform that will be able to help establish objective metrics about a news outlet's "Trust Index."
