Relatedly, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbtTNFmwnWg is Aaron Maté talking to Jimmy 
Dore about multiple topics including:

- the U.N. Security Council discussing blocking the OPCW's first Director-General is 
not an appropriate witness,

- media silence on the alleged Syrian gas attack which was used to ostensibly justify 
the coordinated US/UK/French missile attack which followed. The coordinated missile 
attack was likely an attempt at overthrowing Assad in order to install a gas pipeline 
and do the bidding of western energy companies,

- how Wikipedia has deprecated The Grayzone (considered not a valid source) for 
Grayzone's debunking of the recent coup attempts in Venezuela and thus proving that 
neocon interests have editing power over Wikipedia. Wikipedia's saving grace is that 
the Mediawiki software (which runs Wikipedia) is free software and all of Wikipedia 
articles are licensed to share. So one could make a copy of Wikipedia, using the same 
software Wikipedia runs, where one publishes things Wikipedia won't allow us to 
publish on wikipedia.org.

I probably can't get UPTV to run this because it comes from Jimmy Dore who swears on 
his show. But you can watch it without UPTV.

P.S. In regards to the start of this interview: Dore did not win an I. F. "Izzy" 
Stone award, Maté won in 2019 alongside Laura Flanders, Dave Lindorf, and Earth 
Island Journal (see 
https://www.ithaca.edu/academics/roy-h-park-school-communications/park-center-independent-media/annual-izzy-award). 
Also, just before this clip began Dore was talking (on the live feed) about getting 
cheaper shirts like the shirt you see him wearing in this clip.
