(More customer reviews)This is one of those documentaries, like food inc., that every American citizen should watch. It exposes the methods and practices of corporate politics. When the viewer see those practices first hand, he can start developing a healthy skepticism and self resistance to those brainwash technics.
Everyone knows that money plays a big role in US politics. I knew that too. But after watching AstroTurf wars, I'm starting to realize how big.
I also loved the simple & naive style of the movie and the subtle humor.
Watch it and tell your friends about it. This is the kind of film that commercial media wouldn't be eager to promote, as it targets some of their REAL customers - their advertisers. Only people like me and you who may actually care about the future of our kids can spread the word about this very important film. So let's do that.

From the Tea Parties to the healthcare and climate wars, America's conservative citizens have revolted against the Obama agenda. But are these grassroots actions in fact examples of 'astroturfing'? - The practice of manufacturing citizens groups for the purpose of delivering corporate messages. Curious to find out, Australian filmmaker Taki Oldham went undercover to investigate. What he found was astroturfing on a scale greater than he could have imagined, threatening not only the health of American democracy, but that of its citizens and the planet as a whole.
