MySpace Has Bought out 7 Theatres to Show An Inconvenient Truth - FREE

Spread the word!

Hey guys,

MySpace has bought out 7 movie theaters TONIGHT so you can COME SEE AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH FOR FREE and spread the word!

Did you know the excess CO2 we produce is the main cause of global warming?

We feel really strongly about the environment and how the Earth is changing. The movie, An Inconvenient Truth, is one of the most compelling and eye-opening we've ever seen.

AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH offers a passionate and inspirational look at whats happening and how to help save the planet from irrevocable change. We can no longer afford to view global warming as a political issue. Rather, it is the biggest moral challenge facing our global civilization.

Global warming is the greatest crisis facing our planet. If we don't act now we could drive one million species to extinction within 25 years. You owe it to the future to see the truth.

So how do you get involved? Its easy -- just REPOST and spread the word! Then come out and show your support by seeing An Inconvenient Truth.

so this is pretty big.

He must know this. Perhaps it's in the nature of an apology.

a journalism course Gore invited Murdoch. it was as part of the talk about media - kinda relevant - not a personal friendship thingy. I am sorry to say, It was Marc Crispin Miller (whom I now like) who made the leap - but then again, he had voted Nader in 2000.

As part of Fox Interactive Media. They are a fairly liberal bunch based in LA. As is my husbands company. Murdoch is an opportunist. He saw a way to make money with right wing media and he made it happen. Unfortunately he took the entire MSM to right with him.

but this is great!

letter deals. Where is this info coming from?

at another that I have to pay $$$ for, I have been waiting for this day for over 3 weeks,

I would pay double price if need be.

Kicking for the others that may be close to a free one

Cheers!!!

i'd love to pay to see it.. but I gotta wait.

will human beings be one of the one million species driven to extinction? it would be cool if freepers were one of the species to go.

It appears that the hosts of this event are the people behind "An Inconvenient Truth."

They're using MySpace to get out the word.

Have fun!

There were some posts upthread about Murdoch and Gore that got me thinking.

I followed the link to the myspace page, and took a look at it. Nothing on there indicates that Myspace is sponsoring or hosting these movie events. In fact, the page does explicitly state that the hosts are "An Inconvenient Truth."

What leads me to say it is simply a desire for accuracy - and for giving credit where credit is due. I think it's great that the AIT people are putting their movie out there for free viewings.

the poster down the page - it says "MySpace has bought out theaters for MySpace friends to see this movie" ...

And so, I stand corrected. :hi:

:grr:

he, and Al Gore, and the guys who financed the film are all taking no money. instead, every penny they would have earned is going back into distributing the film. They want to make a dvd and have it shown in schools across america for free.

:woohoo:

I'm pretty sure that the theater near my brother's and parents' house is showing it though. :)

I find this amazing. Wow.

TC

?

Gore should have been our President!!!

I saw F9/11 at the Spectrum in Albany!

to reach the predominantly young folk who are on MySpace; they are our future ... if we can keep the planet safe and here for them. Kudos to the MySpace owners! (Now I just wish the film were playing closer to me.)
