Project Censored - Guest Ralph Nader.
Tuesday Apr 23, 2019
Tuesday Apr 23, 2019
On this week's program, we hear a speech by the legendary political activist and consumer-rights advocate
Ralph Nader. Nader outlines some of the most critical problems facing Americans, including exorbitant military spending,
out-of-control corporations, and thousands of annual deaths in the workplace, or from lack of health care coverage.
But then he names some individuals who've made a difference in recent U.S. history, explains what students
can accomplish on campus, and how voters can hold legislators accountable. Nader spoke on March 5, 2018 at
Sonoma State University in northern California, as part of the campus's annual Social Justice Week Lecture Series.

At a time when media education is perhaps more vital than ever, Project Censored
associates Nolan Higdon and Ben Boyington make that case that corporations and
their allies are working to redefine "media literacy" in ways that promote their interests,
while screening out complete critical analyses of the influence of media in society.

Each year's Project Censored volume includes a chapter on "junk-food news" -- trivial or scarcely-significant stories
that receive disproportionate coverage on corporate media, thereby crowding out more-significant issues. This week's
Project Censored Show features three of the researchers for the junk-food news chapter of Censored 2019, to examine
the insidious social effects of junk-food news, and to discuss their work and this year's chapter.
Notes:
Izzy Snow and Christina Hamilton are students at College of Marin, and Project Censored researchers / authors.
Susan Rahman teaches social sciences at College of Marin and is the Project Censored faculty contact at that institution.
