In this episode of Badlands Story Hour, hosted by Chris Paul and Burning Bright, we dive deep into Sidney Lumet's 1976 film Network, exploring its chilling relevance to today's media landscape. The movie's portrayal of media manipulation, corporate control, and the construction of reality through television is dissected with a sharp focus on how these themes echo in modern infotainment. We discuss the timeless narrative of Howard Beale as a "mad prophet" and its parallels to contemporary news and entertainment, touching on how corporations shape public perception and profit from the stories they tell. Tune in for a thought-provoking analysis of how fiction becomes reality, from Hollywood to the newsrooms of today.
