There is no more important struggle for American democracy than ensuring a diverse, independent and free media. Free Press is at the heart of that struggle.

We now know that a neo-conservative is an arsonist who sets the house on fire and six years later boasts that no one can put it out.

The delusional is no longer marginal.

Democracy works when people claim it as their own

There is a historic strain of dominion theology which says, taking its references from the Psalms, that man is made just a little lower than God, and that we are the crown of creation. That interpretation has come at the expense of the one that says when God, in the story of Noah, intervened to save human life against the flood, against the acts of nature, He did not stop with human beings. He made sure that every kind of animal was represented twice on that ark.

Plutocracy too long tolerated leaves democracy on the auction block, subject to the highest bidder.

There are honest journalists like there are honest politicians - they stay bought.
