Mike Wallace Is Here
Self (archive footage)
Denominado como el "enemigo del pueblo" por el actual presidente de los Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, el periodismo en Norteamérica se encuentra en horas bajas. Mentiras, "fake news" (noticias falsas), propaganda y tretas verbales amenazan con destruir lo poco que queda de honestidad en la Primera Enmienda. Mike Wallace representó durante más de cinco décadas la panacea del periodismo tal y como se concibió en sus orígenes, con un estilo duro y sin concesiones que le convirtió en uno de los entrevistadores más importantes de la historia de su país. Este documental explora su legado con la intención de recordar a las nuevas generaciones por qué el periodismo es uno de los pilares fundamentales de la democracia pese a los esfuerzos que algunas figuras públicas realizan a diario para desmentir este hecho.
