CBC Doc Zone

Canadian Broadcast Company shows History Channel how to do a documentary on 2012

CBC's Doczone is their flagship documentary program

On December 2nd and 3rd, CBC-TV broadcast a documentary titled "Apocalypse 2012". Unlike much of the so-called "documentaries" that air on another network, this program actually brought in scientists to give their opinions. We were happy to see our friends John Hoopes and David Morrison on the show.

APOCALYPSE 2012

The end of the Mayan calendar, environmental catastrophe, cosmic upheaval - all predicted to bring about mass extinction on December 21, 2012. We probe the science, follow the survivalists to their secret encampments and expose those cashing in on apocalyptic fears. Why do doomsday prophecies hold such powerful sway?²
