Pulls back the veil of corporate media reporting to dig deep into the politics of "climate apartheid," the implications of the Fukushima nuclear disaster, the movement to halt the execution of Troy Anthony Davis, and the globalization of dissent "From Tahrir Square to Liberty Plaza." Throughout Goodman and Moynihan show the power of ordinary people to change their media-- and change the world. Amy Goodman is a multiple New York Times best-selling author and the host and executive producer of Democracy now! a daily independent news program. Moynihan has participated in the organization's growth, focusing primarily on distribution, infrastructure development, and coordinating live broadcasts.
