Truth

Months before the 2004 US presidential election, Mary Mapes (Cate Blanchett), producer of 60 Minutes Wednesday, and her crew are seeking evidence to verify whether or not George W. Bush received preferential treatment during his time in the military. As they dig deeper, allegations pour in, sources change their stories, document authenticity is questioned, and the casualties begin to mount. A controversy ensues, fueled by radio hosts, bloggers, mainstream media sources, and even CBS itself, ultimately leading to Dan Rather (Robert Redford) being forced to apologize for presenting the material as fact.
