1:21:00
Democrats and Republicans say
1:21:02
Obscenity?
1:21:03
I'm Jay Billington Bulworth
1:21:05
And I've come to say
1:21:07
The Democratic party's
1:21:08
Got some shit to pay
1:21:10
It's gonna pay it in the ghetto
1:21:13
It's gonna pay it in the--
1:21:18
Senator, are you saying
that the Democratic party...
1:21:20
doesn't care about
the African-American community?
1:21:21
JAY: Isn't that obvious?
A lot of people think...
1:21:24
there are no black leaders today
because they all got killed...
1:21:26
but I think it's the decimation
of the manufacturing base...
1:21:29
in the urban centers.
1:21:30
Don't you think so?
1:21:31
[ Whispering ]
What do you think my age is?
1:21:33
DIRECTOR:
He's had his time. Flush 'im.
1:21:34
[ Rapping ]
You know, the guy in the booth
1:21:36
Who's talking to you
in that tiny little earphone?
1:21:37
He's afraid the guys at network
gonna tell him he's through
1:21:40
If he lets a guy keep talking
like I'm talking to you
1:21:42
'Cause the corporations
got the networks
1:21:43
And they get to say who gets
to talk about the country
1:21:46
And who's crazy today
1:21:47
I would cut to a commercial
if you still want this job
1:21:49
Because you may not be back
tomorrow with this corporate mob
1:21:52
- Cut to a commercial
- OK, flush 'em.
1:21:54
Cut to commercial,
cut to commercial
1:21:56
Cut to commercial
1:21:58
OK, OK, I got a simple question
1:21:59
That I'd like to ask
of this network
1:22:01
That pays you
for performing your task
1:22:03
How come they got the airwaves?
1:22:05
They're the people's,
aren't they?
1:22:07
Wouldn't they be worth
70 billion to the public today?
1:22:10
If some money-grubbin' Congress
1:22:12
Didn't give 'em away
for big campaign money?
1:22:14
It's hopeless, you see
1:22:16
If you runnin' for office
1:22:18
Without no TV
1:22:20
If you don't get big money
1:22:21
You get a defeat
1:22:22
Corporations and broadcasters
make you dead meat
1:22:25
You been taught in this country
there's speech that is free
1:22:28
But free do not get you
no spots on TV
1:22:31
If you want to have senators
not on the take
1:22:34
Then give them free air time
1:22:36
They won't have to fake
1:22:38
Telecommunications
is the name of the beast
1:22:40
That, that, that, that...
1:22:42
That's eatin' up the world
from the West to the East
1:22:44
The movies, the tabloids,
TV, and magazines
1:22:47
They tell us
what to think and do
1:22:49
And all our hopes and dreams
1:22:50
All this information
makes America phat
1:22:53
But if the company's
out of the country
1:22:54
How American is that?
1:22:55
But we got Americans
with families
1:22:57
Can't even buy a meal
1:22:58
Ask a brother
who's been downsized
