Amy Goodman and the Power of Independent Media | Lawrence News

A new documentary, Steal This Story, Please!, celebrates Amy Goodman and Democracy Now!’s fearless, listener-funded journalism that’s broadcast in over 1,400 stations worldwide—never accepting corporate or government money. From staying put during 9/11’s chaos to chronicling global protests, Goodman’s career embodies grassroots reporting at its most resilient. As press freedom faces unprecedented threats—from political attacks to staff cuts—the film underscores how independent media, like a radio station dynamited yet rebuilt, keeps democracy alive. It’s a rallying cry: support independent outlets now, because a free press isn’t just news—it’s the bedrock of accountability and voice.
