WWASP Exposed in Australia
CCM girl 1989:
I am also from Australia and watched this excellent pprogram on debunking the myth of WWASP. I was DISGUSTED that this can be allowed to occur. Who is running America..... the corporate dollar - its not the youth i am worried about, its the leaders>>>>

a link to the blurb on this documentary.
CCM - Suggest the angry Aussie complain to Amnesty International.
They ought to be at least as interested in demanding a hault to the torture of American kids as they are Iraqi POWs.
Anonymous:
How did this documentary come to be made? What's the connection with PURE, if any?
Thanks!

I'm not all together sure how the French got in touch with Susan/PURE - but they did.
She set up interviews with some of the Trekkers; or, through various Trekkers connections, with other post wwasp families.
There was a lot of upset at one point, when word leaked out the French intended to call the documentary "American Eats its Young". But they (the French dudes) assured Susan this wasn't the case - and told me when I asked about it, this was simply the name of a song they intended to use as a back drop. Apparently, its a hit song over seas. Mathieu seemed surprised I wasn't familiar with it.
Heres a link to a forum thread where America Eats its Young is mentioned in the same "breath" as the Utah Program. http://www.barbelith.com/topic.php?id=13196
I assume they (the French dudes) wanted to attend the trial, and do some filming and interviewing, because of the information that was bound to result from the testimony - and the chance to catch the WWASP dudes on tape. Not having seen the film, I have no idea if any of the Salt Lake City, WWASP V PURE trial film was used - but they did do a lot of filming.
They also brought Steven F. of Paradise Cove / High Impact with them. So, I assume he was interviewed for the film.

Also, I know Layne B. was interviewed. You might remember him from the threads on Kemper and Randal Hinton.

But again - I have no idea if any of this was used.
Anyway - other than using Sue as a contact source, I feel safe saying there is no connection.
Lots of media persons have used Susan as a source of contacts to interview for stories related to WWASP.
This is in no way unique to the French - I'd guess, its just that they were such a prominent and interesting presence during the trail, that makes them seem unique.

Yeah I'm pretty sure these guys were up in Seattle last year too... I remember the girl from H.E.A.L calling me up about an interview with a french film crew.. Seems like they traveled the whole country getting this documentary put together..
A lot of people have sent emails into the production company to get a copy, so hopefully we can...
