Aussierogue,
I saw a doco titled ‘The Corporation’ a couple of months ago at an Indy arthouse cinema. Not sure if it’s what you are referring to on SBS however it was very enlightning.
Cheers,
Gatsby!Ha ha! I wonder if it is along the lines of the movie “The Bank”? Higher powers in the corporate sector dictating todays living.
I was wanting to watch it but didn’t realise it was on. Will check it out next week.
Steph.I recorded it… But still trying to find the time to watch it… Maybe this weekend.

I wanted to watch it, but didn’t realise when it was on. Shame I missed it, I’ll try and catch it next week.
Cheers,
Michael.Ok I will bite,
what is it about besides the obvious?

Adelaide SAIt was about how, legally, a corporation is treated as an individual, it has the same legal rights as a human individual.
Going on from this, they ran a mental health questionnaire, to discover the personality of ‘The Corporation’. Unfortunately for the planet, the personality of the corporation, is PSYCHOPATH!!!
The mental health questionairre wasn’t done on an individual corporation, just a mash of lots, with lots of horrifying examples of behaviour.
Quite alarming, but fascinating.
Yes it was the doco I saw at the Nova a few months ago. If you enjoyed ‘The Corporation’ and the people interviewed then go to your Video store and get out (it should be released by now) ‘OutFoxed’ on DVD. Equally as compelling. Whatever your views are on Rupert, you’ll never view him the same way again.
Cheers,
Gatsby!
