In my previous post here on the "talk" page, I suggested that the whole cast be included in the cast section of the page. In retrospect, it does not seem necessary to include all of those listed. It is important however to discuss that fact that some of the people considered "cast" appear only in archived footage and were not interviewed directly for the film. Here is my new proposal for change in the cast section of the page:

The cast includes various speakers interviewed directly for the film, as well as mainstream media figureheads in radio and t.v. as they appear in clips of archive footage used in the commentary. Altogether, the cast includes over 100 well-known celebrities, politicians, and show hosts.

Some speakers who were filmed directly include comedian Margaret Cho, producer and t.v. host Lisa Ling, Actress Rosario Dawson, MSNBC host Rachel Maddow, and Newark New Jersey mayor Corey Booker.

Featured in clippings from radio and t.v. include radio host Rush Limbaugh, Fox News host Glen Beck, vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, presidential candidate Hilary Clinton, and producer/t.v. host Oprah Winfrey. After its release, Oprah Winfrey purchased the rights to the film.

In addition to the celebrity cast, were several young people from the general public. A group of middle-school children were given the chance to speak in an unplanned interview that took place after a conference co-hosted by producer Jennifer Siebel Newsom and the women’s advocate group The Professional Businesswomen of California. For a complete list

Common Sense Media's founder/CEO, Jim Steyer, is one of the movie's interviewees.
