John Pilger @ MCA

I was able to catch the John Pilger exhibition at the MCA on Saturday.

Not only was it very thought provoking and extremly large but it was free!!!

That may explain the 100+ people checking it out. I have never seen the MCA so packed.

This prooves that Australians love to be stimulated with relevent documentry type content.

I think the commercial channels should take note and pull there finger out when it comes to programing. I read somewhere that they did a survey and found people want more documentries on TV. But the commerical channels put more on and no one watches them. Fuck the "Life a fly" and "The world around us" crap, people (the semi educated public) want to see the stuff Cutting Edge play every Tuesday. They want relevant doco's. They want views that aren't that of an American

The closest thing Australia gets to this on commercial channels is 60 minutes. But this is watered down for the old people who like their info pre chewed.
