First in a series on good indie journalism. Features excerpts from a good and often funny talk by Scahill. He tells of stunning CNN interviewers by delivering taboo antiwar comments, of his discovery of "alternative" journalism, and of trying to report what the corporate press ignored--the US's undeclared war on Iraqi civilians in the 1990s. Also, KD reads Scahill's story of a mostly-unreported police riot against protesters in Miami. Introduction by KD.
Scahills talk here is excerpted from a much longer edition recorded and broadcast by the Unwelcome Guests Collective (www.unwelcomeguests.org). Scahill gave this talk on December 2, 2008, in Ithaca, NY. Thanks to the Collective & producer Lyn Gerry. Scahill article on Miami from Counterpunch, condensed by K.D. New World Notes is produced for WWUH-FM, Public Alternative Radio at the University of Hartford. Feedback to kdowst at hotmail dot com.
