Talk:Brainwashing 101

Old discussion, which includes a whole lot of flames and some material discussion on what to include in the article, has been moved to Talk:Brainwashing 101/archive. Please feel free to edit the archive page to remove personal attacks and things you consider slanderous, while doing your best to retain things that demonstrate consensus on aspects of the article.

BCEJ has posted a more comprehensive critique of Maloney's film that goes beyond the criticism of Prof. Schneider. It is based on longer articles that have been featured in BCEJ's publication, The Catalyst, over the last few years. &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.157.154.166 (talk &bull; contribs).

Hi. Please see the talk archive as to why we have used Schneider's criticisms and not those in the BCEJ; the main reason being that Schneider actually appears in the film. Also, please note that Schneider's complaints are actually more fleshed out and complete than the short webpage you have linked to instead. Sdedeo 16:49, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

But Schneider's letter doesn't include all of our criticisms, and it's too easy to write him off as 1 critic when in fact everyone on campus except for a select few have a problem with this film. Can you at least link to the BCEJ page? &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.157.154.166 (talk &bull; contribs).

I am personally fine with including a link to the BCEJ page, and will add it in the external links. Sdedeo 19:13, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

Indoctrinate-U
As I understand it, Brainwashing 101 was only intended as an early version of a longer and more ambitious documentary, which has now been released as Indoctrinate-U. That would explain why On The Fence Films is no longer hosting free downloadable copies of Brainwashing-101. See for example this January 2005 item in the New York Sun.

If this is correct, we'll need to rewrite (and perhaps rename) this article. Does anyone know for sure? CWC 13:54, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
