NPOV of synopsis section

The synopsis section of this film does now seems to follow the Neutral Point of View policies of Wikipedia. It is filled with biased statements such as "do the unthinkable to small town America", "Worse still, the Bureau of Indian Affairs made the mining companies...", and "...the reason why these people were kept here for so long is one of the oldest and ugliest of our own legacy."

While these statements may reflect the viewpoint of the filmmaker, they should not be included as the basis of the synopsis. Such things can be included as example quotes if they are directly from the film. If not, they should not be included in this article.

Unfortunately, I have not seen the film so I cannot edit this section to NPOV. For those who have seen it, consider using the article for An Inconvenient Truth as an example of how create an NPOV synopsis for a film containing emotional and controversial topics.

A Request to do a non-POV Summary

I've now seen this movie enough to do, what I believe, is the first NPOV summary. Scarletsmith (talk) 00:41, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I ended up removing it since it was essentially a summary of the Tar Creek article. This may have been what was in the film, but it unintentionally came across as a soapbox and also was fairly redundant to the pre-existing article. On the bright side, I found enough sourcing to assert notability. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 09:21, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
