Selected by the Sundance Film Festival as a Special Screening, the feature documentary, “The Hunting Of The President” will have it’s world premiere on Friday, January 23rd at the Prospector Square Theater in Park City, Utah. “Hunting” is one of 12 films selected for these special screenings.

The documentary is based on Joe Conason and Gene Lyons’ best selling non-fiction book, “The Hunting of the President: The Ten-Year Campaign to Destroy Bill and Hillary Clinton.” “Hunting” is the story of the unrelenting effort to defeat and discredit Bill Clinton through the deceit and manipulation of the media.

“With the recent success of the political documentaries such as ‘Bowling for Columbine,’ we know a growing audience exists for films in this genre. The potential for ‘Hunting’ to get a broader release is very strong, especially in the political atmosphere of next year’s political campaign,” said Colichman. “Sundance is the starting point for us and our goal is to have ‘The Hunting of the President’ in release by June 2004.

So his pal Robert Redford is promoting this piece of propaganda for Slick. How sweet. It'll end up buried on the Sundance Channel, to which I DON'T subscribe.

Liberal "talk radio", anyone?

It is no accident, comrades, that conservatives are more influential in AM radio and the internet than they are in TV and the movies. Liberals dominate in high-cost, high-production-value media because liberalism--the selling of fear for fun and profit--is better suited to mass markets than conservatism is.

I see that All-Star Clinton apologists Begala, Carville & Moldea are featured.

That is to say nothing of the two whiners, Conason & Lyons. :-)

What the hell are they talking about, this guy was never hunted. He was more like a deer who ran out and front of your car or truck & froze in front of it and then was hit. Bottom line, it was his own fault.
