WHY DEMOCRACY NOW IS NECESSARY

When we see the real lack of coverage of the Republican Convention it seems that Democracy Now is almost the only new organization reporting on the real news.

Then you see Democracy Now and other journalists arrested with demonstrating citizens. There is darn little democracy on the streets of America today. You have the right to be pepper sprayed, tazed and dragged on your face to a paddy wagon.

More importantly we must remember that if their is a coup against the current Constitutional government of the United States it would likely begin with the arrest of authentic journalists. Fox and the networks know how to serve power and be good fascists. Real journalists do not.

So arresting the journalists that report reality rather than propaganda is a sign. It is a warning. Not this time?

We need a democratic revolution in the United States and I suppose anyone reporting on the tyranny in the streets of Minneapolis-St. Paul is going to be unpopular with the ruling elites. Their well armed thugs do their job of repressing the people, just like China!

They don't want the way the RNC chooses its candidates, via a secret meeting of millionaires and billionaires. Too late, RNC. Too late. You are naked before the world!

They don't want the way the Iraq war is a crime and a catastrophe to be revealed. What wonderful discipline to see Amy and the whole staff continuing to report after these arrests. It should inspire millions to get off their rear ends.
