"Spin" is a 1995 documentary film by Brian Springer composed of raw satellite feeds exposing politicians' pre-appearance planning. It covers, not only the United States presidential primaries, 1992 and presidential election, but also the LA riots as well as the Operation Rescue abortion protests.

Using the 1992 presidential election as his springboard, Springer captures the behind-the-scenes maneuverings of politicians and newscasters in the early 1990s. Pat Robertson banters about "homos," Al Gore learns how to avoid abortion questions, George H. W. Bush talks to Larry King about halcyon -- all presuming they're off camera. Composed of 100% unauthorized satellite footage, "Spin" is a surreal expose of media-constructed reality.cite web |title= Spin |publisher= Stay Free! |url= http://illegal-art.org/video/popups/spin.html |accessdate= 2008-07-24 ]

"Spin" is a followup of the 1992 film "Feed"; for which Springer provided much of the raw satellite footage.
