Democracy Now!

Anyone who thinks that this show is biased doesn't understand the difference between opinion and telling facts, Amy Goodman tells facts, she doesn't have opinions, unless they are obvious. She reports important stories that matter to the world as a whole, and are often under reported. Anyone that says she's the Rush Limbaugh of the left is clearly unaware of what constitutes biased reporting, and opinion based reporting. Basically if the facts make the right look bad it must be biased, if the facts tell the truth about climate change it must be biased.

FACTS DON'T HAVE SIDES.

All news is biased so ignore the hillbillies. I like to look at both left and right news to get my own opinions. Unfortunately there is no such thing as completely center when it comes to news. If your looking for a Fox News left-leaning point of view it's a good one. So far they are the only one to call Kamala our on her past so there's that.

Amy and her crew work very hard to bring us unbiased and independent news. They have no advertising or other corporate connections, which makes them one of the lasts voices of truth in the media landscape. If you find independent news important please think of supporting them in any way you can. Also funny (and scary) to see how many low ratings they have received here, seeing as they report very factually and never pull any punches. Long live Democracy (now)!

There are so many biased "news" programs and podcasts and such in America and all over Planet Irth. Democracy Now! Is just another. It is one of the most egregiously WOKE shows in the mainstream media. It is NOT independent news. Some of the programs I love the most are ANYTHING but independent, which does NOT refer to opinions or ideology, but simply to the fact that a show does NOT have advertisers. So Democracy Now! Is like every other so-called "independent" program. It is best to watch or listen with a mind that is discerning, critical, and uses reasoning. There ARE objective facts that exist, such as the fact that America has socialism in the guise of corporate bailouts and subsidies; the fact that Congress is a two-party system with legislation obviously made in favor of the wealthiest in the country; that the American economic system is not free market capitalism but is a military-corporate-Congressional-mainstream media oligarchy; and that the war within America is not racial, but the poor and middle-class vs those that own all three branches of the government. NONE of that is subject to argument, so Democracy Now! Is at its finest journalistically when it has stories that remind us of those indisputable facts. Have a mind of your own or you may end up like aromand.

Sadly, there is are a lot of utterly shite so-called "News" shows online now. This is not one of them. The reporters here have years of experience and awards. ( I'm not in the crowd of thinking experience is a bad thing I'm afraid). You can tell they have taken this experience and decided to set up an organisation that works the way they would like to run a current affairs show. Stories are presented in great detail with lots of references in the mix, from accurate sources. They present details that almost every other media outlet, both mainstream and online, seem to miss. The show truly holds governments to account, which is what a journalist should do. They are not there is to be best buddies with certain groups, rather to reveal mistakes and inconsistencies in organisations. It could do with having more head-to-head debates, rather than single guests giving off their opinions. It's slightly more liberal than conservative judging from the guests (though I have seen conservative guests on there), and I would like to see more strong questions asked to conservatives on the show. Other than that, this is a disciplined, well structured show, that frankly shows other online shows how it should be done.
