HOST A VIEWING PARTY
Get Involved – Create Your Own Deadline Viewing Party
“Can capital punishment be justified in a criminal justice system so fraught with error that in Illinois, 13 of the 25 inmates slated for execution were discovered to be innocent?”
That was exactly the question that former Illinois Governor George Ryan faced in the final days of his term in 2003 as he decided whether to let 167 people live or die. And it is the question that America will face on July 30 when Deadline, a riveting new documentary, has its national television premiere in a special two-hour edition of NBC’s Dateline at 8pm (Eastern Standard Time).
It is unprecedented for a film like ours to get such a large, diverse audience and it is important for viewers to tune in to show the network just how hungry the American public is for media that forces us to question and to think.
Creating your own Viewing Party on the night of the broadcast for friends, family and community members can be a powerful way to bring people together to spread the word and promote the discussion of America’s criminal justice system and the death penalty.
If you would like to host a Deadline Viewing Party, contact us at beth@bigmouthproductions.com. We will get all of your information and then send you our “How To Throw A Viewing Party Guide” and, on the day of the broadcast, a “Deadline Discussion Guide”. We are re-launching our website on July 15th so log on to see your Viewing Party posted on our interactive map.
