[Peace-discuss] Noam Chomsky on Media Matters (1-2pm, AM 580)

[Ra Ravishankar]

From: Victor W. Pickard <vpickard at uiuc.edu>

THIS WEEK'S GUEST

-------------------------------
This week's guest on Media Matters is Noam Chomsky. Chomsky is a professor
of linguistics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and is
universally accepted as one of the most preeminent intellectuals alive.
In addition to his paradigm-breaking work in linguistics, he has been
outspoken in his critique against U.S. foreign policy. With an eye toward
social change and political activism, Chomsky has lectured around the
world on international affairs and human rights and has written dozens of
books, including his seminal work, "Manufacturing Consent." More recently
he published "9-11," which offers a penetrating analysis of the root
causes of the September 11 terrorist attacks.
