Want to learn the truth about fracking? Forget about “Gasland.” Skip Matt Damon’s little propaganda piece; “Promised Land” [partially funded by the oil-rich United Arab Emirates 😉 ]. And check out “Fracknation” – the latest project from journalists Phelim McAleer and his wife Ann McElhinney ~

FrackNation was made after Phelim McAleer confronted GASLAND filmmaker Josh Fox at a Q&A in Chicago. McAleer asked Fox about instances of water being lit on fire well before fracking occurred in America and why he didn’t include that information in GASLAND. Fox said the information “wasn’t relevant.” McAleer disagreed and put their exchange on YouTube. Fox sued to have it removed. That’s when McAleer realized there was more to the story of fracking than Josh Fox was letting on…

 
Ed Morrissey at HotAir recently reviewed the documentary ~

Fracknation will air on Tuesday evening (January 22nd) on Mark Cuban’s AXs cable television channel. It’s a brilliant effort by Phelim and Ann, and it’s appropriate for all ages. The only violence in the film comes, unsurprisingly, from people who don’t want to have Phelim asking inconvenient questions.

Catch it tonight – if you can – at 9:00 p.m.ET. Check HERE for availability.
Unfortunately, our cable company doesn’t offer AXS.tv (Thank-you Bright House Networks!) BUT – as an official backer of the film, I will be getting my own copy of the DVD shortly.
