The story

What Is Spin About?

The premise of Spin without spoilers.

Pirated satellite feeds expose the contempt U.S. media personalities hold for their audience, unraveling the tightly‑spun fabric of television. The film shows how the system silences public debate, marginalizing anyone outside the circle of journalists, politicians, spin doctors and televangelists. Intercut with footage of the L.A. riots and a floating TV talk‑show set during the 1992 presidential election, Spin critiques how news is manufactured.
