Ce DVD est en anglais.

This DVD was recorded at McGill university during the visit of Amy Goodman on November 7th 2008. The need for independent media is central to Amy Goodman’s life and she convincingly demonstrates that commercial news networks just don’t do the job, hence the absolute necessity to maintain radio and television networks not affiliated with the giants of the media industry.

Some quotes from Amy Goodman, the voice of “Democracy Now“:

“I’ve learned in my years as a journalist that when a politician says “That’s ridiculous”, you’re probably on the right track.”

“Independent media is absolutely essential to the functioning of of a democracy. It’s not your job to cozy up to power. We’re supposed to be the check and balance on government.”

“War coverage should be more than a parade of retired generals and retired government flacks posing as reporters.”

A top-notch speaker, Amy Goodman knows how to captivate her audience.
