Wired News: Outfoxed: A Unique Sleeper Hit

Wired News: Outfoxed: A Unique Sleeper Hit:

" Robert Greenwald's latest film, Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism, went straight to video.

Greenwald's Los Angeles production company has sold more than 50,000 copies of the DVD on the Net since the film had its world premiere on July 13 at The New School University in New York City. Five days later, it was shown at more than 3,000 house parties organized by MoveOn.org.

Outfoxed has been one of the three most popular DVDs on Amazon.com's best-seller list since July 13,,,

In a week, BuzzFlash sold 1,000 copies of the DVD. 'It's selling like hot cakes,' said Mark Karlin, the site's editor. 'BuzzFlash readers feel about Fox News the same way that dissidents felt about Pravda in the old Soviet Union. Fox News claims it is 'fair and balanced'; Pravda claimed it was the 'truth.''"
