SIMILAR PICKS / A PERSONAL CONNECTION
01
Why this pick
McKay uses the same caustic, formally playful political-economic storytelling: direct address, sharp comic timing, and an outraged look at powerful institutions turning catastrophe into advantage.
02
Why this pick
A brisk, cynical satire about media spectacle and political manipulation, driven by insider banter and the unnerving sense that public reality can be manufactured.
03
Why this pick
Its sleek, fast-talking satire follows a highly polished operator rationalizing moral compromise, matching Vice’s appetite for mordant humor and institutional hypocrisy.
04
Why this pick
This furious political farce captures the profane backroom scramble, spin, ego, and bureaucratic absurdity that Vice turns into a darkly comic portrait of power.
05
Why this pick
For Vice’s anger at post-9/11 state power, this is a more sober but equally propulsive institutional investigation, following persistence against secrecy and official self-protection.
