HBO's revealing, entertaining Meet the Donors is money, money, money

Alexandra Pelosi’s latest documentary film is a must-see and highly entertaining look at the moguls who spend millions of dollars on their favorite high-level political candidates in return for access, frame-able pictures and, in truth, probably much more. HBO’s Meet the Donors premieres on Monday, Aug. 1st after both national political conventions have come and gone. So the timing is perfect, and our review is here.

Plus, Fox News Channel plunges to a distant last in the D-FW ratings for Wednesday’s Night 3 of the Democratic convention.

Also, our final in a series of convention look-backs chronicles comedy’s coming out party at the 1992 Democratic gathering in New York. It’s all on the Back Channels page.
