1: Paul Levinson vs. Jesse Ventura on media sensationalism

I debate the former Governor of Minnesota - Jesse Ventura - on the pros and cons of media coverage of sensationalist events such as trials and murders. From Jesse's short-lived "Jesse Ventura's America". I flew out to St. Paul for this taping, and very much enjoyed it. This is Part 1 of a 2-part video clip.

damn they must not have had this show run very long, ive never even heard of it

[PLev20062006]

@mothafobiskit It was a very good show - but it lasted about 6 weeks ...

BTW, LOL at calling the media "watch dog" the media is a lap dog for big business and big government. It's literally bought and paid for by the big corporations that are the shareholders and are on the board of directors.

[PLev20062006]

Not the best analogy - because the news that's factual (coffee) provides the very basis for identifying and removing the part that's not factual (the arsenic).

@BusBoyIsBack

Yep. But it's even worse than what you said. Carl Bernstein's book on the CIA and the Media is a great read....

"The Central Intelligence Agency owns everyone of any significance in the major media."

--William Colby, former CIA Director

Seemed more like a very informative interview than a debate. Good show.
