Orwell Rolls in His Grave

Description from Wikipedia:

Orwell Rolls in His Grave is a 2003 documentary film written and directed by Robert Kane Pappas. It examines the current and past relationships between the media, the US government and corporations, analyzing the possible consequences of the concentration of media ownership. Making references to George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, the film argues that reality has met and in some ways exceeded Orwell's expectations about a society dominated by thought control, which is made possible by the media. According to the film, the mass media no longer report news, but manage it, deciding what makes the headlines and what is conveniently ignored, thus ultimately defining the framework upon which most other issues are discussed by the society.

Running time: 84 minutes.

Levi's "Go Forth" Ad (2009)

Pay close attention to the imagery and wording in this ad. Notice how "America" is half sunk in water and that even though they have Walt Whitman reciting a patriotic poem, they make the people appear weak and unorganized, running around like half naked animals. Orwellian double think perhaps?
