Today's Guest: Jen Senko, documentary filmmaker, The Brainwashing of My Dad, The Vanishing City
 

Watch this exclusive Mr. Media interview with Jen Senko by clicking on the video player above! 

Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience full of dittoheads, knuckleheads and general dickheads who thought they were getting tickets to be in the studio audience of The O’Reilly Factor… in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida!

Jen Senko was worried about her dad.

A self-described Kennedy Democrat, Frank Senko was a peaceful, loving husband and dad whose political views were never much of an issue between him and the world.

Until one day, on his long commute to work, he discovered talk radio… and Rush Limbaugh in particular.

After that, Frank was never the same.
JEN SENKO podcast excerpt: "Fox shouldn't have the right to call itself 'News'; it's mostly commentary."

He soon framed and announced a long list of people that he hated. And when he found the Fox News Channel, he went completely bonkers. He was angry all the time. If Rush or Fox told him something, he was unquestioning in his acceptance of it as absolutely true.

His wife, his three children – Jen and her brothers – as well as extended family, friends and co-workers, one day found a stranger living in their midst, a hate-spewing, nasty, bigoted monster paranoid of everyone’s beliefs around him. He trusted no one outside of his growing, far right-wing conservative circle of TV and radio hosts, newsletter writers, website propagandists and pamphleteers.

Aghast at what had become of Frank, Jen—a filmmaker who had received good notices for her first release, The Vanishing City—decided to seriously investigate what had happened to him.
