Is The News Media Rooted in Truth
from Your Lot and Parcel · host Benjamin Diaz/Dan Luzadder, Pulitzer Prize-Winning Author, and Documentary Filmmaker
Luzadder’s in-depth, extensively documented, and critical examination of the Fourth Estate is a tough look at what must be done to restore the independence and integrity of America’s watchdog of democracy, its independent journalists. “As the nation witnesses the collapse of fact-based, unbiased, democracy-supporting journalism, amid current political dystopia, a truly free and independent press remains a democratic dream yet unrealized,” said Luzadder. “Rebuilding the dream of a functional media rooted in truth and integrity, committed to the fundamentals of democracy, is dependent on that truth being known.”“His book “The Manchurian Journalist” raises and attempts to answer ominous questions about journalism’s transparency with readers, its fealty to the truth, and how its relationship to secret intelligence interests has distorted what Americans understand about our own political environment." https://www.amazon.com/Manchurian-Journalist-Lawrence-Corruption-Journalism/dp/1634244540http://www.yourlotandparcel.orgSupport the show
