Speaking Truth to Power


See what happens when someone from the main stream media gets the opportunity to tell the truth and they actually do it! We seldom see this level of honesty from inside the corporate media monopolies . Or is the wall beginning to crack? Are the 1% losing their stranglehold on what gets reported? Remember when Walter Cronkite, 'the most trusted man in America,' turned against the Vietnam War live on the nightly news...

Here is a link to a calmer explanation from Dylan Ratigan about the facts behind his rant.

And if you really want to delve into the current worldwide economic crisis (aka: depression) might I recommend one of my favorite economists Steve Keen. Here is an interview he did last week with the BBC. There is a video and a transcription; I recommend reading over listening because he makes many points worth pondering several times over.
