Drama Satire Journalism Television

Network (1976) follows Howard Beale, a veteran news anchor whose career is in decline. After being informed of his impending dismissal due to low ratings, Beale announces on live television that he will commit suicide during his final broadcast. This shocking declaration unexpectedly boosts the network's ratings, leading the executives to exploit his emotional outbursts for profit. As Beale's rants grow increasingly unhinged, the line between news and entertainment blurs, raising questions about media ethics, corporate greed, and the public's appetite for sensationalism. The film is a biting satire of the television industry and its impact on society.
