Disinformation, also known as Disinfo Nation, is a television show hosted by Richard Metzger.

[2] It was aired for two seasons on Channel 4 in the UK as part of their late night "4Later" programming block.

[3] Called a "punk rock 60 Minutes" and "wilder than Jackass" by the Los Angeles Times and Wired respectively, the sixteen 30-minute episodes produced for C4 (and several segments never aired in the UK) were then cut down to four one-hour "specials" intended for the Sci Fi Channel in America, but never aired due to the controversial nature of what was portrayed on screen.

[4] According to interviews Metzger was told just twelve days prior to the first specials' air-date that he would have to cut 50% of the material from the show in order to pass the USA Network's corporate lawyers' scrutiny.

[citation needed] Those four shows have subsequently been released on a DVD with a second bonus disc presenting highlights of The DisinfoCon, a twelve-hour event featuring shock rocker Marilyn Manson, underground filmmaker Kenneth Anger, painter Joe Coleman, and others such as Douglas Rushkoff, Mark Pesce, Grant Morrison, Brother Theodore, and Robert Anton Wilson.
