Challenging the Corporate Media Blockade!

Coming Up on Pirate TV:

Jeremy Scahill- Blackwater, Monday 7/7/08 8-9pm PST

Polk Award-winning journalist Jeremy Scahill, a frequent contributor to "The Nation" magazine and "Democracy Now!" talks about his book, Blackwater: The Rise of the World’s Most Powerful Mercenary Army.  “Blackwater is the utterly gripping and explosive story of how the Bush administration has spent hundreds of millions of public dollars building a parallel corporate army, an army so loyal to far right causes it constitutes nothing less than a Republican Guard. The most important and chilling book about the death throes of U.S. democracy you will read in years and a triumph of investigate reporting.” – Naomi Klein. “This engrossing investigative piece exposing, in shocking detail, a U.S. government-outsourced Frankenstein replete with helicopter gunships may leave you incredulous. But you better believe it, for it poses a grave and gathering danger to the future of our Republic.” – Ray McGovern.

Jim Douglass is the author of JFK and the Unspeakable: Why He Died and Why It Matters.
