DESCRIPTION:FilmWorks United International Working Class Film & Video Festival\nBlack & 
 White And Dead All Over\nDirector - Chris Foster (84 min.) 2013\nThe 
 collapse of the newspaper industry in the United States has not only led to 
 the destruction of tens of thousands of professional journalist jobs but 
 has threatened the public’s right to know what is going on in their 
 community, country and world. This documentary provides a concrete overview 
 of how the newspaper industry’s liquidation has affected the journalist 
 and the fight to keep papers alive.\n Included are interviews with Bob 
 Woodward of the Washington Post and David Carr of the New York Times and 
 journalists from the Philadelphia Inquirer who depict an industry so 
 desperate that the production of news is driven toward what can be sold on 
 the market for the profits of the owners.\n Pulitzer winning journalists 
 are told that their stories and work is no longer good enough for the paper 
 and instead they need to produce stories that make money for the publisher. 
 This drive for profits as the film shows is a dire threat to the public and 
 their right to know what is happening in our lives. \n Following the film 
 there will be a panel which will also look at how technology has affected 
 the newspaper industry with George Kelley, Bay Area Media Group CWA 
 Newspaper Guild Delegate, Bill Snyder, CWA 39521 Pacific Media Guild 
 Freelance Unit Chair and tech writer.\nSee
