Chuck Norris vs. Communism: Keeping Romania In Ignorance
Clip: Season 17 Episode 5 | 1m 6s
Chuck Norris vs. Communism premieres on PBS’s Independent Lens on Monday, January 4, 2016.
In this excerpt from the Independent Lens documentary Chuck Norris vs Communism, Romanian dictator Nicolae Ceau?escu limits television to a single, government-run channel, which only broadcasts two hours a day. As one Romanian puts it: denying 20 million people access to information was a way to "keep a whole country in ignorance for years."
