Telling the truth (1 Viewer)

Does anyone have any notes on how Frontline presents the issue of "Telling the Truth"? I have to write an article about how texts represent TTT for my english exam.

If anyone could help me, I'd be so appreciative!

manipulation of the truth in frontline. well start off saying that it is a news program that satirises real current affairs/news programs. being a film, it uses alot of juxtaposition, dramatic irony and caricature-mainly visual stimulus and techniques.
you might want to talk about appearance vs reality because what is seen isnt what is really going on. like the episode where Marty is crouching down to show danger, when theyre like 4 kms away from the scence.
