Self - Investigative journalist (archive footage)
Vancouver-based filmmaker and TV news veteran Fred Peabody explores the life and legacy of the maverick American journalist I.F. Stone, whose long one-man crusade against government deception lives on in the work of such contemporary filmmakers and journalists as Laura Poitras, Glenn Greenwald, David Corn, and Matt Taibbi.
Self - Journalist (voice)
Documentário analisa as razões da Guerra do Vietnã, mostrando imagens de bombardeios, destruição de aldeias, depoimentos de ex-soldados, políticos e generais responsáveis pelas operações militares. Contrapondo versões contra e a favor do conflito, o filme criou condições para uma dolorosa autocrítica sobre a ação americana no Vietnã, que custou milhões de vidas dos dois lados.
Himself
A fascinating portrait of the maverick Washington journalist who, blacklisted during the McCarthy era, started his own paper (running it for some seventeen years) and became a master political gadfly. Stone himself is a delight: witty, irreverent, forever puncturing the lies he claims it is in the nature of all politicians to tell. Brilliantly edited throughout, the real triumph of the film is the way it intercuts Stone's comments with newsreel footage to demonstrate how much of a point he has.
