Another in the foreign film series, this one from the US, in English [with English subtitles]. It has been rated by Rotten Tomatoes: 96%/-- [Critics/Audiences]. It is rated NR.
Undeterred by armed soldiers, evasive politicians, and riot police, Amy Goodman has reported some of the most consequential stories of our time. Steal This Story, Please! is a gripping account of the trailblazing journalist whose unwavering commitment to truth-telling spans three decades of turbulent history. From the frontlines of global conflicts to the organized chaos of her daily news show Democracy Now!, Goodman amplifies stories and voices too often silenced by commercial media. Academy Award-nominated filmmakers Carl Deal and Tia Lessin (Trouble the Water, Citizen Koch, The Janes) take us behind the scenes with the warm, wisecracking granddaughter of an Orthodox rabbi --raised in a tradition of asking hard questions -- as she navigates a media landscape reshaped by technology, corporate consolidation, and political assaults on the press and on truth itself. Urgent, provocative and unexpectedly funny, Steal This Story, Please! is both a call to action and a celebration of resistance, posing the question: what happens to democracy when the press stops challenging power?
**"Makes a strong case that a plurality of independent outlets and more journalists, not fewer, are vital to a healthy democracy — and that without a revitalization of the independent press, we may lose the ability to discern the truth altogether."**
[- Alissa Wilkinson](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/critic/alissa-wilkinson), [New York Times](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/profiles/publication/337)
**Critics' Consensus--Pro and Con**
She is a good, very persistent journalist but not ideologically
neutral as to story choice or framing.

All of our events are intended to have a strong social component, something sitting together in a dark theater reading subtitles doesn't provide. So when you get to the theater, just buy your ticket and enter. After these OFS movies, interested movie goers gather at Pacifico's Sushi Mex (on leaving the theater, follow the building to the left). It wouldn't necessarily be my first choice of restaurant, but it does have a Happy Hour and cerveza.
Please enter theater by 3:15 for seating as these films can sell out. Tickets are $9.25 [$8.50 senior].
