Sounds like he's talking about Fox


A scene from Paddy Chayefsky's classic movie "Network" directed by Sidney Lumet. One of two films to win three acting Oscars. Peter Finch who died a month before the nominations were announced, won an Oscar for his role as news anchor Howard Beale. In this incredibly prescient 1976 movie, the network Beale describes in this clip could easily be today's Fox. Enjoy!

The great Jenson/Beale scene.
