This review is from: The Press Secretary - A Fascinating All-Access Look Inside Clinton's White House Press Office [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Even though its a little dated, the historical perspective only serves to make this documentary even more interesting.

Anyone who is a news or political junkie (or a political news junkie like myself) will find this behind-the-scenes look at The White House communications office and strategy absolutely riveting. It's CJ Cregg on steroids because it is an insiders look at actual events instead of a fictional representation.
