Commercial Breaks—USA Network—August 26, 2001

From the network television premiere of the (anti-*) neo-Nazi thriller AMERICAN HISTORY X, which, inevitably I must suppose, had to be edited by the bulk for basic cable television. Amusingly, there were plenty of lighthearted ads that aired during the broadcast of this incredibly dark and disturbing motion picture. COMMENT: *For the record, I have no idea why the film is overwhelmingly popular among white nationalists, racists and neo-Nazis. The film has a storyline that is so heavily centered against them that you'd think it would be the LAST thing these goons would get behind. Contents: USA Promo: US Open Trailer for TV: O Adverts: a.
