- 83 mins. video, worth the time (even if some of it is a little raunchy, not suitable for children!)FYI copied from site:The Yes Men's WTO website at gatt.org.The fake site began to receive real emails from confused visitors, including invitations to address various elite groups on behalf of the WTO, to which they responded as if they were the actual WTO.They argued that the US Civil War was a waste of money because Third World countries now willingly supply equivalent slaves. They also urged people to listen to the WTO, not the facts.

- The Yes Men's most famous prank is placing a "corrected" WTO website at gatt.org. The fake site began to receive real emails from confused visitors, including invitations to address various elite groups on behalf of the WTO, to which they responded as if they were the actual WTO. Appearing in newly purchased suits, The Yes Men gave speeches encouraging corporations to buy votes directly from citizens. They argued that the US Civil War was a waste of money because Third World countries now willingly supply equivalent slaves. They also urged people to listen to the WTO, not the facts. Thank you JaCko44 http://tanycoed.stumbleupon.com/

- Superb video. Educated People were "very polite" when dealing with pretend fascist presentations that went EXTREMELY far in painting the ugly reality of the WTO.

- A feature length documentary about the "Yes Men" a group of creative political activists. They take on, in a very funny and effective way the World Trade Organization as well as Bush. A tad long but well worth the view!

- Takes the satirical spirit of The Daily Show and delivers it to ground level. This kind of activism ends up being alarming and uncomfortable, not because of its absurdity, but because of how easily it is accepted as reality. A real wake-up call.
