This is not entertainment news passed off as journalistic objectivity. No greasy palms. No compromises. The stakes are too high. TV can be a very effective military weapon in the war of ideas. We are beset upon by infomercial propaganda and at risk of slipping into mindscape littered with misleading news, polluted with manipulative advertising, all controlled by cartelistic media culture. We at THE UNDERGROUND aspire to be one alternative, a voice of dissent, and revolution. THOUGHTS ARE CONTAGIOUS. TUNE IN. SPREAD THE WORD. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - THE UNDERGROUND picks up where Afterthought TV left off, but this time reaches beyond the students and alumni of UCLA (our sponsor) in an attempt to catch the pulse of Los Angeles by night. From the clubs to the street corners, our spotlight will seek the unknown and undiscovered. The creators of Afterthought have simply expanded their purpose, and remain resolved to deliver episodes that raise consciousness and provoke thought. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - For those that missed it the show episodes will be archived here and at www.morepowertou.tv We are looking to expand a network of actors, bands, and good folks who can spread the word and further the goal to promote thought, and rattle the institutional cages that say there is no such thing as quality underground television. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - CHECK OUT YOU TUBE.
