For What It’s Worth V

There’s something happening here!
Park Street station on Boston Common. The Statehouse dome is in the background.
The big action was, of course, in Washington D.C. Mainstream media are slowly starting to pay attention, but ‘alternative media’ [ 🙂 ] are still well in the lead. Today’s edition of Democracy Now! dedicated the most of the hour to coverage of Saturday’s protest. Video coverage is available through their website [at low resolution] and through cable systems around the country. Audio is available over some broadcast radio stations. The website has a finder to help you hookup.
I was turned on to DN! by a fellow HUCTW member who is also a member of the Dollars and Sense Collective. DN! was started by Amy Goodman ’84*. Produced from the Downtown Comunity Television Center in a decommisioned firehouse in Chinatown NYC, Amy and her team provide an hour of in depth reportage every weekday. It is subtitled, “The War and Peace Report.”
Dollars and Sense is bimonthly magazine of economic analysis from a left perspective.
* For those of you not inundated by the Harvard Culture, a year after somebody’s name is their year of graduation from Harvard. As my first thesis advisor said, “Harvard is sweet on itself.” Jack Trumpbour has a slightly different view of the same phenomenon. As do I.
