Wiki.

The Second Civil War is a satirical black comedy television film directed by Joe Dante for the HBO cable television network, first aired on March 15, 1997. The film details the build-up to an ethnically fueled civil war in an alternate future United States as a result of unsustainably excessive immigration, political self-interest, and ratings-pursuing news media.

The film stars James Earl Jones, Elizabeth Peña, and Denis Leary as reporters for a CNN-like cable network, "NewsNet" (referred to in on-screen graphics as "NN"); Beau Bridges as the governor of Idaho; Phil Hartman as the U.S. President; James Coburn as his chief advisor; and William Schallert as the Secretary of Defense. Brian Keith portrayed a general in one of his final movie roles.
