Making a Difference
I watched Fair Game last night, and it reminded me that while the crooks often get off, it's vitally important to fight for the narrative. Yesterday morning I listened to Julian Assange say essentially the same thing.
With corporate media distorting reality to conform with government propaganda, defiant voices like Valerie Plame and Joseph Wilson are what stands between our authoritarian state and a totalitarian state. Anyone who's lived through that knows it's not a trivial difference.
