Query: I could not buy the premise of this film.

Everybody seems to like this movie, but for me it seemed such a far-fetched premise that I couldn't buy into it. How is it possible for one Hollywood producer with a short strip of film covering one scene able to fool the entire news media industry? How is it possible that no other news organization would not send a reporter to verify a war? How is it possible that no one would have a pang of conscience about misleading the public to hide molestation? Dustin Hoffman jumped around in this role like he was trying very hard to believe this premise but couldn't really bring himself to do it. I had to shut it off after forty minutes, it seemed so contrived.
