Amy Goodman on CNN Newsroom with Rick Sanchez, November 10, 2008

[tomitstube]

gitmo's still open, people are still being held without charge, we still have rendition and "black sites", we're still in afghanistan and iraq, we've started bombing lybia, yemen, pakistan, and somalia. abortion rights are being gutted, workers rights are being stripped, health care is still the most expensive and least inclusive in the western world, obama's doj is targeting journalists, whistle blowers, pot growers, and environmentalists, the drug war still rages...

what's changed?

[brahmbhattbhavna]

[marinello6]

I am shocked that even Amy Goodman is clueless. Maybe she does know about who the Shadow Government is but does not talk about it because people are so ignorant about it and so successfully brainwashed that people like David Rockfeller or the Rothchilds are never mentioned. They are running the show. In recent years, David met with the Emperor of Japan. The Emperor does not meet with rich retired bankers but will meet with the secret rulers of the world.

[marinello6]

Obama is not African American.....he had a white mother.

[BigMikeMcBastard]

@marinello6 And he had an African father, so African-American is actually quite appropriate in his case. Either way it's just another way of saying "... has darker skin than the average 'white' person" so there's no sense in getting caught up over it. Truthfully anthropology doesn't really recognize the existence of actual races within the human species, as the characteristics of people you'd call "black" or "white" are very superficial and not really concrete at all.

In other words, forget it.

[marinello6]

@BigMikeMcBastard If there is no sense in getting caught up in it...then why did you. On a more important note...I have found out that Stanley Ann Dunham was an intelligence operative as is her son. Ann worked for the Ford Foundation and other globalist organizations. Her son was recruited by Business International Corporation which was a front for the C.I.A. As you may know the C.I.A. serves global bankers, multinationals and families like the Rockefellers.

[marinello6]

@BigMikeMcBastard Barrack Obama is an intelligence operative. The C.I.A. and other intelligence agencies have been out of control for a long time. They serve their own interests and have certain masters. Barrack did not just come out of Chicago as a Community Organizer. Know the mother and you will know the son. As much as Ann Dunham did, her son took steering global policy to a whole knew corrupt level. All Presidents are corrupt. This is of Barrack's corruption and purpose.

[BigMikeMcBastard]

@marinello6 Oh really? Internet website user marinello6 has cracked the case, has he? Well, I'll be.

[marinello6]

@BigMikeMcBastard Do yourself a favor. Read credible documentation. The bottom line is this. No president gets elected if they do not serve the agendas of the controllers of the U.N., the owners of the private cartel called the Federal Reserve, the elite foundations such as the Rockefeller Foundation, Ford Foundation, the bottom line of multinationals etc. It sounds like you have nothing more than an emotional investment in Obama. Your response is disappointing and has no substance.

[BigMikeMcBastard]

@marinello6 I don't have ANY investment in Obama. I'm not even an American. And, like pretty much anyone else with a bit of sense, I think he's a lame duck who has "compromised" on basically everything and turned out to be mostly worthless. Certainly not any sort of agent of change at any rate.

As for your ideas, I think they're essentially nonsense. The notion that YouTube user marinello6 has his finger on the pulse of some vile conspiracy controlling the USA is absurd, quite frankly.

[marinello6]

@BigMikeMcBastard How would you know? You do not know me. What makes you think that You Tube users know nothing? That would include you.

[marinello6]

@BigMikeMcBastard He has made some change as do all presidents. He has given some people what they wanted. Demublican or Republicrat, both parties serve the same masters...One of which are the owners of the private corporation called the Federal Reserve.

[marinello6]

@BigMikeMcBastard I did not crack anything. I am only repeating something that a few people already know.

[marinello6]

@BigMikeMcBastard Why do you watch CNN? TIME-WARNER TBS - AOL (donated 1.6 million to GW's 2000 campaign)

America Online (AOL) acquired Time Warner–the largest merger in corporate history.

It is just another propaganda tool to be used on the masses.

[BigMikeMcBastard]

@marinello6 I'm actually watching the latest episode of Democracy Now!, if you must know.

I know because if what you said were true and you actually had any evidence of it it'd be a pretty monumental thing. You wouldn't be talking about it on YouTube, if you had any real evidence. Plus whoever you are I imagine that you're not one of the premier investigative journalists who have a network of inside sources or anything.

[marinello6]

@BigMikeMcBastard I went to school with an investigative journalist that worked for CNN, Fox etc. Her name is Jane Akre. She is in a clip called, "The Corporation unsettling accounts" . See what she says about being a premier investigative jounalist and how they are controlled by special interests. It is a very popular clip on Y-T from the documentary, "The Corporation." You can also google her. See what she writes about.

[marinello6]

@BigMikeMcBastard If I wouldn't be talking about it on you tube, what makes you think I would be allowed to talk about it on the corporate owned mainstream media channels? That is what the Jane Akre clip is all about.

I have told you all that you need. Take care.

[marinello6]

@marinello6 Ann Dunham worked with Peter Geithner, the corrupt father of Timothy with his connection to Goldman Sachs. If people only knew that the whole system has a shadow government, we could have real leaders, not arrogant elites. Always follow the money. Mainstream media never talks about this that is why I do not watch T.V., read newspapers and other mindless publications. The public is brainwashed so that the Rothchilds, Rockefellers, Walkers, Harrimans, Windsors etc. are served.

[85mariapatricia]

FOX, CNN, MSNBC, whatever two different sides of the same coin keeping you trapped with binary thought

[goindownwitit]

@85mariapatricia OMG, i LOVE you comment!

[ctwatcher]

First Mulatto President!

[revealer007]

BTW, Amy "girl", how's that troop withdrawal from the middle east working out for your organization as of 4-1-2010. Historic, eh?? Girl, just get in line with all the disappointed Obama voters who got lied to for the sake of one man, and an administration who are so hungry for ultimate political power, they will say anything to get your tired, raggedy vote. "Hey, Obama, whey my healf-kaya  at, beeeoch?! "I need's me sum purpuh pills."

[revealer007]

0:29. . . Obama is half white. . . why couldn't you say "I watched the first white American with african american facial features, elected president of the United States . . . " You know why, because you're a closet racist, just like all the other deluded Obama voters. Michelle Obama is African-American, BO is NOT!

[Elextacytheband]

I wonder if she would pose the same question now to Obama. Why the surge? why the continuation of war?

[Lamenthatic]

@Elextacytheband

She did. :)

[Elextacytheband]

@Lamenthatic so what was his answer, I wonder what it will take for obama supporters to hold this guys feet to the fire

[QWERTY34990]

rachelgolem THAT'S RIGHT

[BBmyQ]

Democracy Now --should change there name to "SOCIALISM NOW"

[tristramshandy3]

what's socialist about reporting on corporate malfeasance? that's what journalism SHOULD do.

[rachelgolem]

Now you know why Fox has 3 times the viewership of CNN

[jalex26000]

Faux noise has nothing. ratings are lies. but thanks for your opinion.

[tristramshandy3]

because our population is disproportionately ignorant and scared with little to no historical knowledge?

(rhetorical question)

[QWERTY34990]

THAT'S RIGHT

[SweetDissident]

Being a critical reporter or journalist has NOTHING to do with "criticizing everybody equally!" It has to do with detecting bullshit from truth, letting people who are usually given no voice a chance to speak, and asking discerning questions of everyone. It has to do with informing, not entertaining or distracting the viewer. And as everyone can go to another video and see, Amy asks Obama very critical questions as well. The two parties are members of the same corporatocracy. She knows that.

[yes4me]

5/5 for Sanchez

[peaceme11]

AMERICAN MEDIA IS SUCH BULLSHIT... obama save the day, whatever hes a puppet.

[fjwjr]

Really? You put your faith in a web site called conservapedia for your information? Really?

Well, if you read your site you'll see (if you can get past the typos) that Mussolini and Hitler were socialists (leftists). The first 2 paragraphs contradict each other.

Under "Beliefs" it describes almost exactly what's happening NOW with the current administration and congress with the exception of militarism, but Obama wants a "civilian military".

[Propagandhi900]

I don't. I'm jsut sayin that even they aren't retarded enough to say fascism is a liberal/left ideology.

They are retarded though.

[fjwjr]

If she only knew then what a mess Obama would make of things so quickly and do and defend the things he demonized Bush for.

Amy Goodman is an absolutely, arrogant moron. Remember her getting arrested at the RNC and yelling, "I'm a journalist!"? Whatever. Doesn't give YOU the right to break the law or not follow a direct order from law enforcement when you rush them during a riot.

[Propagandhi900]

She had ID and top security ID which gave her permission to get onto the RNC floor.

The police were supposed to let her through. They, instead, arrested her on now basis, and took her IDs from her.

Your support of the fascist law enforcement is absolutely retarded.

[fjwjr]

What's an ID that gave her permission to get on the RNC floor got to do with anything? She wasn't arrested for trying to get into the RNC. She came out of a crowd of hostile people making demands and refused to follow directions. Her ID didn't give her unlimited power to go where she wanted, when she wanted.

In a hostile situation, what kind of idiot would rush the police (who are already on high alert given the history of violent liberal protesters) and start making demands? Arrogant fool.....

[Propagandhi900]

Supporting fascism is fun isn't it fjwjr?

[fjwjr]

Aaahhhh, it's the old "I can't win the debate so I'll call him a fascist and show the world that I really have no idea what that means" routine.

You realize you just tapped out?

[Propagandhi900]

I said you supported fascism. I mean, plenty of American presidents supported fascist regimes over communist regimes. Doesn't make the fascist.

I've learnt a lot in my days of argument. You can't win against those who do not support rationality.

[fjwjr]

I don't understand why you keep accusing me of supporting liberals. That makes no sense.

[Propagandhi900]

Even conservapedia understands that fascism is a far right ideology.

Grats moron.

[flaerock]

fjwjr said "What's an ID that gave her permission to get on the RNC floor got to do with anything?" Well, it happened to be a press pass ID, and the press have certain protections under the Constitution (maybe you should read it, fjwjr). She came to find out what was happening to her crew and got arrested in the bargain. In that scenario, I'd make demands, too.

[fjwjr]

I work for the press, dumb ass............

[EmilyGreene1984]

Also in regards to her interviews, you will notice that she has more discussions people with anarchist, socialist, liberal ideas and more often than not, she rarely if ever critiques them regarding their policies. But she is very quick to do so towards Republicans and conservatives.

[boing3887]

what is a liberal, and what's a conservative? democrats are not socialist or anarchist, they're just liberal. that's very different. goodman usually has viewpoints from anarchist/socialists on her shows, and they're usually much different than what you get on cnn or msnbc. cnn is "liberal," yet they have a virulent racist named lou dobbs. democracy now gave him a real pummeling. bill clinton was interviewed by democracy now. they pummeled him as well, asking him questions fox wouldnt dare ask

[boing3887]

the mainstream media is indeed liberal, but that's bc the people who own the country are basically liberal. liberal elites are educated at harvard and like drinking wine and are pro-choice, pro-gay marriage. but when it comes to issues that are about the power structure of this country, they're pretty conservative. so yeah, cnn can talk about marginal social values issues all it wants, but if it ever criticizes GE or Westinghouse it's getting axed.

[tristramshandy3]

the media is NOT liberal. you point to social issues, but I would argue that even a perceived "liberal" bias as it pertains to social issues still serves the corporate agenda when it comes to war and taxes- for they can report on abortion and gay marriage endlessly while almost NEVER reporting about the wholesale shipment of US manufacturing jobs overseas- or heaven help us if they ever report on MEDIA CONSOLIDATION and its effects on our republic.

Viva Shakespeare!

[boing3887]

@tristramshandy3

well, by "liberal" i mean democrat. and american liberalism is pretty bad you know. so i'm comfortable with calling the media liberal, though what that entails for me is different from what it entails for joe the plumber (anti-american). but besides that, yes, the media is indeed pro-corporate and crap

[boing3887]

i think you misunderstand the power dynamic in this country. the liberals and conservatives in this country are just two branches of the business party. do you think cnn, msnbc, abc, or fox would ever do anything to challenge the real power in this country? do you really think anderson cooper would risk his job by starting to report about how elections in this country are largely determined by who gets more corporate contributions than with anna nicole smith?

[boing3887]

i actually used to think a lot like you do, believe it or not. but eventually i realized that the difference between fox (conservative) and cnn (liberal) was so thin that there was no real difference, and then i started to think about why that is. you complain about how the media is "liberal." ok, true. well, the liberal media are the ones who are setting the grounds of the debate on the media itself. you're accepting these categories of 'liberal' and 'conservative' that they're giving you.

[boing3887]

i'm sure right now fox is screaming bloody murder about obama's "socialist" policies. well, it's not socialist, btw, or there never would've been any bailouts, but that's another issue. if you look at history, both democrats and republicans pursue basically the same policies. the worst fundamentalist islamic state in the world has been saudi arabia for the past 50 years, and yet they've been our allies through all administrations. ask urself why so much similarity?

[EmilyGreene1984]

True, she has criticized both Republicans/Conservatives/Demo­crats - but has she really critiqued those of her own party? To claim that you don't delve into yellow journalism (aka - meaning biased), you have to report all the news from all different sides - including those of your own party and be objective about them.

[EmilyGreene1984]

You may of course not like that term, but there is not one article that offers a truly objective and unblemished news report that proves she is unbiased. I always think that the best way to report the news is merely to film it like it is, but say nothing. Let the public make up their mind for themselves about it. The problem is Amy Goodman, especially in regards to her reporting in the Middle East, she is very sympathetic towards radicalistic ideas (that much is proven), including Hamas.

[EmilyGreene1984]

I find it interesting that while she can cry foul about the problems of most world goverments, but she hasn't taken a good hard look at such organizations like the United Nations. Where was she to report there were Hamas sympathizers not only being supported by the United Nations, but also working on the board as well? If Amy were telling the "truth from all sides", she would report this factor as well. But interestingly enough, she didn't. Instead, she covered the positive stories from the UN.

[EmilyGreene1984]

Amy Goodman is no more objective than Rick Sanchez, Bill O'Reilly, Chris Matthews, and Sean Hannity. Having studied her work on both her website "Democracy Now" and its affliates as well as having previously read her books (while studying journalism in college) - it can definitely be said that her writings lean more towards the left. Meaning, yes - by her statements and views, she is biased towards liberal and radical ideas.

[tristramshandy3]

I disagree. Amy isn't objective- she is biased. Her bias is anti-corporate. The rest of the mainstream media has a pro-corporate bias. The reason why Amy's bias has more honesty than the other side is because we happen to live in an age iof nearly ubiquitous corporate malfeasance.

That being the case, "news" outlets that focus on gays, gods, and guns are intentionally obfuscating the REAL problems we face.

Amy, concentrating on corporate crime, is closer to actual news than corporate propaganda

[riddler03]

Fuck obama's nigger ass

[beverly555]

I love you Amy!

[kisame426]

AMY GOODMAN IS REALLY A REALLY GOOD PERSON! yea AMY!

[sledgehammer20783]

but half black Obama has no slaves in his bloodline.

[plimbuff]

At least Amy Goodman doesn't lie like ORielly, Coulter, and Limbaugh.

[EmilyGreene1984]

That's a lie right there, in of itself. She tells about the left-leaning side or the Green party stance, but if you notice she is rarely if ever critical of them. So therefore by only showing the left-side or third-party side of the news, but failing to question their own problems - that in of itself is an obstruction of the entire truth.

[boing3887]

what is there to be critical of? there policy positions which are never adopted or on the agenda? the green party is indeed left, but it's not 'liberal.'

the news and both parties are to the right of center (yes, you read that right - look up politicalcompass,org). amy goodman is basically the only source of left perspective. you can get conservative perspective on cnn, msnbc, abc, fox, cnbc, etc. so don't complain

[EmilyGreene1984]

That's not true - I challenge anyone to try and watch each news station every day and tally and report on what they covered and how often and in what way did they covered a story. You will notice there is more reporting of "liberal" event than "conservative" by the reporters on CNN, MSNBC, ABC, etc.

[tristramshandy3]

your perception of reality conflicts starkly with my perception of reality.

[EmilyGreene1984]

I don't know why I was voted down for my comment. Unless someone has proof to challenge what I say was wrong, then I don't see what good reason there was for voting down what I said. Do your own research.

[losplatosdemaria]

Why does it say "Awaiting Obama's departure FROM the White House," next to the CNN logo?

[Beadbud5000]

Liberal - Conservative... All bullshit!

[itsacorporatething]

"Global government" is already here in the form of global capital. Because capital is unregulated, the capitalists essentially have veto power over the actions of governments by threatening to leave, imposing trade rules, or other such things. They can mold the actions of states to fit their world system.

[ksks69]

Love Life Love Obama, And be happy a DEM is in office.

Stop the insanity!!!! lol. lol. :)

[KellyLogan]

It's amazing how just the addition of an intelligent voice like Amy Goodman can raise usefullness of a broadcast so greatly. I especially liked how she did not fall prey to the 'attack a symptom' question on Executive Orders and instead addressed and informed the audience on the much larger and more radical issue of the Bush admin's use of presidential signing statements. Note that in this factual discussion, Plant was reduced to 'oh yeah, liberals will do it too.' Sad.

[jtilak]

always out of time with cable news. fuck you cnn

[Axmedkoole]

I did not know that African slaves built the White House. They did a good job. Nice architecture.

[dejesus143]

The woman looks like she's gonna cry. ]

First black president? Correction please, first black/white president is the correct one. We have not elected the first black president yet.

[latinboy1976]

BFD! Obama spoke out against the war but voted for the Patriot Act. Flip flopper! I'm already looking forward to the next election and he is out of the White House. Nothing will change he's bringing in the same people that contributed to this economical mess we are in right now. As an American I am ashamed of the citizens.

[dejesus143]

Exactly!

[MississippiMosher]

No president will be able to solve our problems. We have to solve them ourselves.

[plimbuff]

I agree.

But I stand by my point.

You fall somewhere on the TWO dimensional political spectrum, weather you admit it or not.

The political spectrum has only TWO dimensions. Anyone who has studied political science knows that.

[MississippiMosher]

Well, not so much. There are theories of government, and theories of economy. But, economic theories and government theories don't always go together. For example, not all communists are Marxists. Also, not all capitalists are democrats(that's democrats without a capital D). I just think that the left/right paradigm is an oversimplification.

[plimbuff]

You are trying to combine two seperate spectrums: The political spectrum , and the economical spectrum.

Feel free to do so, I just don't see much point.

[plimbuff]

You still fall somewhere on the TWO dimensional political spectrum, weather you admit it or not.

[DANxCHORIN]

Yep, there are Anarchist Communists too.

[DANxCHORIN]

Haha sorry man, I didn't see you were an Anarcho too.

[MasterMark123]

The right wing has no home any more.. They are drowning in their own BS now... Even moderate Republicans ran away from the nut case religious fundies... The religious nuts destroyed the GOP

[plimbuff]

"drowning in their own BS now"

Perfect way of putting it. It's a beautiful thing.

[jujujohnson100]

Rick Sanchez is a moron

[euro944t]

Blame the Clinton BJ, they don't get away with that today.....NeoCons are losing face, they have damaged this country 10x than Carter & Nixon together.

GOP has to shoulder blame for NeoCon disasters.

[kelseywall]

Chris Plante is a DOUCHE BAG!

[semiliteratedgod]

rightwing scum like this guy sounds unreal and inhumane nowadays, he should STFU or GTFO.

If the good guys torture people, what could we expect from the bad guys?!

fact:

BOTH presidential candidates strongly opposed torture! (and McCain knows what he's talking about, we all must respect that)

America has spoken loud and clear!

No more torture!

[semiliteratedgod]

BTW these superextreme rightwing dinosaurs must be ignored by the MSM, like KKK or something. It's not cool to commit war crimes!!

It would be a disgrace to any civilized society.

[dedebiren]

She should have violins playing in the background.

[mcalien24]

it turns into a joke when you put someone as serious as amy goodman on CNN.

[siryourbrains]

Even considering how unpopular he is now, I think it's going to take a while for the United States to realize just how much damage Dubya has done to the country and to the world in general. The last eight years have been truly embarrassing.

[NOVFP]

When guy wishes that "Guantanamo prisoners should be released into the upper west side of New York city", shows how little care the right wing has for America. Or that he knows they pose no danger.

[MississippiMosher]

"We need Guantanamo Bay." That's hilarious. Even a cursory inspection on torture shows that it is an extremely ineffective way of gathering valid information.

I can't wait to get called "liberal" for citing scientific facts.

[brumac44]

Hey you liberal, feels good to occupy the moral high ground, doesn't it? Maybe one day it won't be considered a bad thing to be called a liberal.

[MasterMark123]

it never has been.. To us, being called a Liberal has always been a badge of honor and pride.. We dont hate. we even like you ! Silly of us eh ...

[MississippiMosher]

I'm not a liberal sir. I don't care much more linear spectrums. I live in three dimensions.

[plimbuff]

What's the third dimension? lol

[MississippiMosher]

Liberal, conservative, and someone who simply analyzes problems according to their own personal experience and thorough research rather than a predetermined paradigm that's been laid out for them.

[plimbuff]

"someone who simply analyzes problems according to their own personal experience and thorough research rather than a predetermined paradigm that's been laid out for them."

Actually, that description could fit either right or left wing.

You obviously know nothing about political science.

[MississippiMosher]

Don't be presumptuous. I study political science and history independently. That description means that I'd rather not go with the typical definition of "conserative" or "liberal" that comes with a predetermined set of morals and politics.

[Rosen915]

If Obama abuses signing statements and tortures innocent people like Bush, Amy Goodman will be the first to call him on it. It's annoying when the lunatic fringe on the right assumes that 'liberals' would stoop to their level given the chance. Just because they have no principles doesn't mean no one else does.

[itsacorporatething]

Totally, serious left wing intellectuals are often more critical of liberal politicians than they are of the right.

[EmilyGreene1984]

Try telling that to Amy Goodman - every one of her writings on "Democracy Now" smacks of the liberal bias she claims doesn't exist.

[plimbuff]

Maybe you should look up the word "LIE" in the dictionary.

Did you look it up? good

Now, I challenge you to show me ONE time that Amy Goodman has EVER LIED. (I refer you to the "Democracy now" Website which has literally THOUSANDS of hours of video of her past shows.)

Go ahead, try to find ONE LIE. Back up your claim that she lies.

[EmilyGreene1984]

First of all, your insults are really pathetic and childish. Let's discuss this on a mature level, hmm?

[EmilyGreene1984]

There are several examples of her having lied, one of which was regarding an article about the Green Party itself. Where she said, quote, "The Green Party made history last week when it nominated the first all-women-of-color presidential ticket in US history." (And she titled her segment "First All-Women-of-Color Presidential Ticket in US History: Green Party Nominee . . .")

[RationalEmotive]

Gee, I cannot think of any journalist reporting more objectively than Amy Goodman.

You do not recognize the pastoral, being dimmed by thousands of hours of indeed very biased broadcasting of American television.

Read Chomsky and wake up, please wake up, you have to wake up.

[EmilyGreene1984]

Now, in reality, in 1992, there were 2 women of color, Lenora Fulani and Maria Elizabeth Munoz, who ran for the position of President on the New Alliance Party ticket in 40 states. Also in 1996, the Workers World Party ticket was Monica Moorhead and Gloria La Riva.

[SweetDissident]

Emily Greene1984, Goodman and her co-host Juan Gonzales have both won countless awards for their journalistic integrity from organizations who uphold journalistic integrity. Now you are so used to watching network news, be it "liberal bias" or "conservative bias" that you do not recognize actual news reporting when you see it. It doesn't look like yelling. It is sitting down with people and allowing them to voice their ideas, opinions, etc, and also showing events from a global perspective.

[Rosen915]

I would give Amy Goodman credit for knowing Obama's particular history. I believe her point is that it would mean a great deal to the slaves who built the White House to know that a black man had been elected President, regardless of his particular heritage. The symbolism is incredibly powerful regardless.

Amy also made a point of mentioning his family, Michele and their children, who are descended from American slaves, if I'm not mistaken.

[SulisKorrigan]

right, ptracy. Thats what Ms. Goodman was getting at. She thought Obama's ancestors built the White House. Literally HIS ancestors. Way to think, chief. You get a gold star

[ptracy4]

Obama's ancestors weren't slaves. Slaves were from west Africa, not east Africa. In fact, Obama's ancestors on his mother's side were slave owners. Perhaps Obama's ancestors owned slaves who built the White House and Capitol. That would be interesting.

[psyops1618]

Amy Goodman is a great journalist.

[marqujud]

yeah his little comment just shows the intent of these "discussions" as more of a sensational news theatre, than discussing factual/real issues.

[Isdrottning]

Man wouldn't it be nice if the host could remember her name and read the title of her book correctly.

[Neville6000]

Sanchez is a MSM douchebag and a moron, like the rest of them at CNN. That's why I no longer watch it, and neither should you.

[jinkasima]

Just out of curiosity, what news should we watch?

[plimbuff]

Democracy Now.

Actually, we should watch all of them.

But if you want straight, fast, accurate news, just watch Democracy Now headlines for 10 minutes a day. Hosted by Amy Goodman.

[Neville6000]

BBC World News, The Real News Network, and as you've already been told, Democracy Now.

[ChoasTheory2000]

Why can't people understand that when you torture innocent people you will turn them into terrorists. You won't get any real information from torture and that has been proven time and again thoughout history. That douchbag fascist "Chris" I think his name was, are the type of retartation that fuels hate and extremism... he's right the US should keep Gitmo open though... for people like him. The number one perpatrated of terrorism in the world is the USA and that's a fact. So yes Go Amy Go!

[mose3]

Go Amy Go!!!

[dollsnatch]

Why does CNN always end with the Republican shill?

[t0kt0k]

they're always out of time for discussion. never out of time for endlessly repeating their talking points, though.

[EricJaffa]

Who is the right-winger in the video?

[47f0]

Chris Plante is a minor right-wing douchebag out of WMAL, who has made a career of slobbering and fawning over the likes of Rush Limbaugh. Just another idiot neo-con with a head full of hate, hyperbole and talking points. "Obama's going to move the terrorists to Manhattan" yeah, right, Chris. Whatever you say.

[WhyNotTruth]

I love how you cut off the talking head!!

[gamoonbat]

An historic moment, and guys like Chris are going to be consigned to history.
