Toward a Democratic Media
Edward Herman
Raga Kedara
Debu Chaudhuri
This is a very special recording. Maestro Chaudhuri performs raga Kedara. This evening mode is a specialty of the Senia Gharana, the school of music linked to Miya Tansen, Emperor Akbar’s court musician in the 16th century. Maestro Chaudhuri draws out the deep plaintive elements of the raga. The introductory alap, solo slow passage, is marked […]
Journalism That Matters
P Sainath
Journalism is in decline. At the pop tabloid end there is “People” magazine. It assigns seven reporters to cover the latest activities of Britney Spears. Then there is the high brow, serious genre. In this realm, powerful seductive forces lure journalists away from actual journalism. A system of perks and privileges keep reporters tethered. If […]
Dateline: Middle East
Rami Khouri
It’s embarrassing. Despite decades of military invasions, occupations and intervention it is remarkable how little most Americans know about the Middle East. Do people recall how the Eisenhower administration destroyed democracy in Iran or Washington’s close alliance with Saddam Hussein? Do people realize that Arabs are Semites and to call them anti-Semitic is an oxymoron? […]
The Middle East: Realities and Fantasies
Noam Chomsky
Hostages, terrorists, oil, the Gulf War, Lebanon, occupation, annexation, the intifada, Israel, the Palestinians, the peace process are the defining and emotionally charged terms and images that saturate our eyes and ears. Chomsky says,”Now, Europe is accepting that the Monroe Doctrine has been extended to the Middle East. That’s U.S. turf. We run it.” He also reviews the dismal media […]
Looking Ahead
Noam Chomsky
Reflections
Howard Zinn
Zinn reflects on war and how his views changed from being “a gung-ho eager bombardier” in World War II. He says, “There’s no ideological reason, no territorial reason, no reason that can justify the cruelty of war. The means of war have reached the point where they overwhelm any possible decent ends.” Then he adds, […]
McWorld & the Free Market Threat to Civic Culture
Benjamin Barber
After hustling to be a responsible employee and a smart consumer, is there any time, money, and energy left each week to be a good citizen? The global free market does a great job of creating a worldwide demand and desire for products and services, but does it simultaneously undermine the ability of civic society […]
Democratizing the Global Economy
Kevin Danaher
In the wake of massive protests from Seattle to Bangalore, an international movement to democratize the global economy has emerged. What does it mean to democratize the global economy? It means moving capital investment decision-making from the secret realm of the wealthy few out into the light of public scrutiny and control. The word “democracy” […]
Iran/Contra Scandal, Colin Powell, and Cover-ups
Robert Parry
Interview by David Barsamian. Recorded at KGNU.
Eqbal Ahmad
Stuart Schaar
Eqbal Ahmad was a bold and original activist, journalist, and theorist who brought uncommon perspectives to critical issues. He was perhaps the first to recognize that former ally Osama bin Laden would turn against the United States. He anticipated the rapidly shifting loyalties of terrorists and understood that overthrowing Saddam Hussein would provoke violence and […]
