Plot summary

SEX AND BROADCASTING is a feature length documentary about New Jersey's WFMU, the world's strangest and most unique radio station, and one man's attempt to keep it alive in the face of recession, the persistent threat of commercial media, and the challenges that come with keeping a rebellious group of outsiders together.

Proof socialism is dead

I enjoyed watching how the left live in a delusional world where there ideals collapse on them and they still cling to myth of socialism. Yeah it sounds great, everyone is equal, equally poor. They won't take income from advertising so they continually beg their listeners for funds to keep the lights on. But they are holding with the tightest if grip to the delusion of their convictions ignoring the most obvious evidence that it doesn't work. They will take a handout from those that do work. They will shave there heads and do whacky stunts to get those that are responsible for their lives to send their money. Yet at no time do they stop and think that the ideology they cling to is what's holding them back.

The only one we know

This film doesn't actually help the legacy of WFMU a legacy alternative ads free independent radio station pushing at the edges of where creativity happens. Early on they get on with the job of blowing their own trumpet and rejoicing in their own crazy cleverness and uniqueness, their exceptionalism, except there have been and are stations all around the world who do different versions of the same thing, iconic and important to their own communities, bu the people in this film seem to be unaware them, a very inward look insular crowd. I found that immediately off putting. Wealthy New Yorkers with the financial stability and time freedom to explore freedom of creative expression. What a first world blessing.

The truth is the station is a fantastic and important part of a big picture of exposing fringe creativity, carrying on the strong and noble of people like John Peele, and various other independent and community broadcasting bastions run by people who do it for the love. They are rare in the grander scheme of things and there is an interesting story to be told about them, but this film just came across as "look how whacky we are" for the sake of it, ignored the wider picture, and did it at the detriment of the achievement of the station.
