How can anyone trust Amy Goodman.
Here's her paymasters -

Democracy Now is loosing audience because it is wilfully ignoring, (until now, & once in the past), a social & political phenomenon as huge as 9/11 Truth.

I agree Amy Goodman is less than she appears. She has a split personality that may have become somewhat corrupted by fame. On some issues she stands tall but on others not so. And even when she covers the right issues, she often has on the wrong guests who won't rock the boat too much, especially on sensitive issues like Israel where she'll have on Norman Finkelstein once in a great while and then pair him off against a pro-Israel flack who dominates the conversation so we hear too little from Finkelstein who should get all the time.

Today was a good example when she discussed an important issue - the Darfur crisis and had no one on to explain what it's all about and that US interests are central to it. Her segment was a waste, told me nothing and I finally turned it off.

Her "debates" and time-wasting clips of administration officials and others who have no place in our limited time block are also intolerable, and she should be condemned for it. Also wasting time too often with segments on lesser issues while ignoring more important ones.

I think Amy wants it both ways - to have one foot on side of what's right and other in the mainstream. Not good enough for me. Morality and principles can't be half-pregnant or half-baked. You either are or you're not - all of nothing and no in-between. I try my best to live by that.

Pacifica Radio does have a program without DN sins - KFPA's Flashpoints Radio, every weekday for an hour 5PM Pacific time - it's the best. Tune in and see. Hear it live on in its archives. I never miss it.
