Marin Independent Journal - New film shines light on approach at Fox News

Marin Independent Journal - Lifestyles: "Robert Greenwald, the best-known documentary filmmaker who isn't Michael Moore, was on hand the other night at the Victoria Theatre in San Francisco's Mission District for the West Coast premiere of his latest grassroots sensation, 'Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism.'
It was only the second time that he had seen his film with an audience, and it was a predictably positive experience for him. As he stepped on stage after the Friday night screening, he was rewarded with a standing ovation.
'Oh, God, I love San Francisco,' he said as the crowd of hip, young activists who filled the proletarian, gray-walled movie house laughed and cheered in appreciation.
Greenwald is as neat as Moore is sloppy. A compact man, he had on a dark suit and a burgundy dress shirt open at the neck, a nod to Hollywood casualness. His glasses were perched on top of his head. "
