Synopsis

This film documents the tumultuous, at times hilarious, and altogether astonishing trajectory of Cenk Uygur, the main host and founder of the online new show "The Young Turks," as he goes from being an unknown Public Access TV host to an internet sensation by way of YouTube. When he ventures into national television by landing the 6 PM timeslot on MSNBC, Cenk's uncensored brand of journalism is compromised as he becomes a thorn in the side of traditional news media, and his unwavering dedication to speaking the truth puts him at the very nexus of the battle between new and old media.
