...went to college and worked for IBM, which some argue disqualifies you from being redneck. But would you say that you've always been a redneck at heart? My definition of [being a redneck] is a glorious absence of sophistication. In my job at IBM, I carried a tool bag and fixed machines. Doing comedy has made me a wealthy man, but I drive a Chevrolet pickup truck. I wear jeans and T shirts every day unless I have to be on TV. I said to someone not long ago, "Here's the problem that the media makes: They tend...

...awaited a trial that would sentence him to 25 years in jail. Twice during his prison term he was found unconscious in his cell, a result of the asthma that had plagued him since childhood. The third time he suffered an attack, Dec. 2, 1999, he died from heart failure. Then, in 2007, another man confessed to the crime and Cole was declared innocent. Texas lawmakers wept at the tale; as a result, the state with the reputation for being the toughest on crime came up with one of the most generous and supportive programs to compensate those wrongfully convicted...

...agricultural company who worked as an informant for the FBI in the early 90s. At the movie’s start, Whitacre seems to be a simple biotechnology worker appalled at the corruption in the company’s business practices.
