Amy Goodman, Democracy Now and the Soros Foundation

[Peter Lemkin]

Although other programs on the stations that air DN have 911conspiracy lore, Amy and DN, who are and still desire to be mainstream within progressive politics, won't go into 911 stuff because it still is taboo for the mainstream. Amy knows this therefore won't touch it…if she did her mainstream sources of support might dry up.

"Oh that's that crazy woman touting 911 conspiracies" might jeopardize her standing and she might never again appear on mainstream outlets.


911 is a killer for careers but JFK is somewhat allowed...

Probably because all or most of the JFK murderers are dead or dam near dead but the 911 killers are still alive and well and in operational mode!

To my knowledge, DN! has never touched any of the major assassinations either! I know I've tried to push her on that in emails too, without reply or effect. And when you do have a good show like Guns and Butter that will cover such topics well, they don't get the 'circulation', nice production values, high-profile guests or backing that DN! does. It's an uphill battle! Unknown, is what Goodman actually feels or believes on such matters in her heart of hearts. What is clear, however, is she won't touch those topics at all, and I don't believe she ever would dare to. Sadly. To me it seems clear that her major financial sponsors would not sponsor the show should it veer into those 'missing' areas. That is the beauty of not having sponsors other than listener-sponsors, perhaps.

To DN!'s credit, they have had a few interviews with people who believe Capitalism is the problem, not the solution and have done great reportage on many important issues. I don't give them a 'free pass' on their glaring omissions, mentioned above.

Here is a long list of groups funded by Soros http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/viewS...sp?id=1237
