The Exception to the Rulers: Exposing Oily P… par Amy Goodman
I read this some time ago so don't recall details. It's a good, straightforward book, written clearly, with details.
Gets to the oore of nonsense and malcontent in today's media.
An eye opening expose! I shook my head in disbelief/outrage throughout this book. I wanted to read this as I have seen Amy on TV. She goes right to the truth of all the corruption and media failures in this country. The lies and silence on issues this country faces- and not just with the Bush administration but in how the citizens are brainwashed by the government and it's friend the media. We are as bad as my view of Russia.
as always, amy goodman does not disappoint. the essays are short and it's easy to read one right after the other, as well and read it in stolen moments throughout the day. i wish more people would read amy goodman's books and listen to democracy now.
