Good night and Good luck

Good night and good luck is a good movie. I had read some reviews, seen a few promos on the TV and it did not take me long to go for it.
It may be nothing new these days, for the media to sensationalize controversial matters of politics. It was not so back in the 50s, especially just after the world had recovered from the wraths of the WW-II.
The movie is about how a few journalists from CBS cover a senator's actions on communist links. Communism was the biggest threat America saw after the war. Definitely commendable for these bold souls to stand up against a system that wanted to bury a rising.

George Clooney, I think has done an excellent job directing the movie and even better was the acting of David Strathairn as the lead journalist. Flawless dialogue delivery and screenplay.
This is a must watch for anybody with an interest in media.
