Tell the Truth and Run: George Seldes and
the American Press
A Film by Rick Goldsmith
"Nominated for an Academy Award for 1996 Best Documentary,
Tell the
Truth and Run, the dramatic story of muckraking journalist George Seldes
(1890-1995), is a piercing examination of American journalism. . . .
Tell the Truth and Run raises fundamental
questions about the recorded history of the Twentieth Century; about freedom,
fairness and diversity in the media; about power and abuse of power; and about
public citizenship and the democratic process."

From
Rick
Goldsmith:
If your local public TV station is on the broadcast list,
consult the web page periodically to find out when the broadcast is
scheduled. (There's other neat stuff on the web page.) If the film is
not yet scheduled on your local public tv station, you might encourage them
to schedule it soon. (You can find the name, address, phone, fax and e-mail
of your local public television station at http://www.pbs.org/stations/ )
If your local public TV station is
NOT on the above
list, you can contact the station's program director by phone, fax,
letter or e-mail:
- let him/her know you understand that APS has offered the station the
opportunity to broadcast the Academy Award-nominated documentary feature
Tell the Truth and Run: George Seldes and the American Press; and
- ask if they have plans to broadcast it; if not, urge them to take
another look; APS can send screening cassettes to stations upon request.
