FRONTLINE: Inside The Armed Uprising Against the Federal Government

If you are having trouble reading this email, read the online version.

Some call them American patriots. Others say they're domestic terrorists.  Tonight on FRONTLINE, explore how one family’s fight against the federal government invigorated armed militias and anti-government extremists across the country — helping them grow to levels not seen in decades. With the federal trial against ranchers Ammon and Cliven Bundy under way in Nevada, and Ammon out on house arrest as of last week, American Patriot: Inside the Armed Uprising Against the Federal Government investigates the standoffs that propelled the Bundy family into the national spotlight. The documentary tells the inside story of how a simmering fight over land in Nevada and Oregon became deadly, invigorated a wider movement and continues to challenge law enforcement. Watch an encore presentation of American Patriot: Inside the Armed Uprising Against the Federal Government tonight on select PBS stations (check your local listings), or watch online any time. – Patrice Taddonio Assistant Director of Audience Development, FRONTLINE ***        Text FRONTLINE to 617.300.0810,  and we'll let you know when FRONTLINE airs next.  FRONTLINE is produced by WGBH Boston and is broadcast nationwide on PBS.
