Geee Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Free Beacon: A documentarian is accusing a Minnesota film festival of political bias after it cancelled a screening of a documentary supporting the environmental and economic cases for hydraulic fracturing, an innovative oil and gas technique. The documentary, FrackNation, was scheduled to be shown alongside Gasland Part 2, a factually suspect film attacking hydraulic fracturing as environmentally destructive. “We definitely had a lot of discussions about it with our board, with some people in our community wanting to see FrackNation, other people wanting to see Gasland Part II,” said Kathy Florin, assistant director of the Frozen River Film Festival. However, festival organizers announced on Friday that its FrackNation screening had been cancelled. They cited allegations that FrackNation’s creators have ties to the oil and gas industry and said they had reneged on an agreement to speak at the screening, which the filmmakers say is also untrue.
