Archived along w/ rest of Bob's shows if you miss 1p Sunday, July 6th show on AM 580. So nice to have a rational voice among all the holiday hoopla and flag-waving this weekend. Happy 4th, all!

THIS WEEK'S GUEST
-------------------------------
This week our guest is Amy Goodman, host and executive producer of  
Democracy Now!, a national, daily, independent, award-winning news  
program airing on over 700 TV and radio stations in North America.  
Time Magazine named Democracy Now! its “Pick of the Podcasts,” along  
with NBC’s Meet the Press.

Goodman is the co-author with her brother, journalist David Goodman,  
of three New York Times bestsellers, Standing Up to the Madness:  
Ordinary Heroes in Extraordinary Times(2008), Static: Government  
Liars, Media Cheerleaders, and the People Who Fight Back (2006) and  
The Exception to the Rulers: Exposing Oily Politicians, War  
Profiteers, and the Media That Love Them (2004). She writes a weekly  
column (also produced as an audio podcast) syndicated by King  
Features, for which she was recognized in 2007 with the James Aronson  
Award for Social Justice Reporting.

Democracy Now! is aired Monday to Friday locally on WEFT 90.1FM  
(4-5pm) and on UPTV Channel 6 (7-8am). The Democracy Now! headlines in  
Spanish (Titulares De Hoy) are aired on WRFU-LP 104.5FM (7:11am,
