All Governments Lie: Truth, Deception, and the Spirit of I.F. Stone

All Governments Lie: Truth, Deception, and the Spirit of I.F. Stone

Vancouver-based filmmaker and TV news veteran Fred Peabody explores the life and legacy of the maverick American journalist I.F. Stone, whose long one-man crusade against government deception lives on in the work of such contemporary filmmakers and journalists as Laura Poitras, Glenn Greenwald, David Corn, and Matt Taibbi.
