This is the last excerpt from the film “Tell the Truth and Run”

It documents how the FBI, the US military and US Postmaster conspired to drive George Seldes’ publication out of business.

Unfortunately, they succeeded.

Here’s how they did it.

But Seldes had the last laugh. He lived to be over 100, outliving J.Edgar Hoover and all the other government and corporate freaks he criticized.

He wrote books and served as an inspiration to new generations.
