Media For Truth, Not Profit w/ Democracy Now!’s Amy Goodman | The Weekly Show with Jon Stewart

As consolidation, layoffs, and deference to power continue to hollow out the corporate media, Jon is joined by Amy Goodman, host and executive producer of “Democracy Now!” and subject of the new documentary "STEAL THIS STORY, PLEASE!" Together, they examine which stories get told and why, discuss the bargain the media makes in trading truth for access, and explore the power ordinary people still possess to organize and fight back — even as attacks on our democracy intensify. Plus, Jon talks Fetterman, Trump nicknames and favorite emojis! 00:00 - Intro 02:48 - Amy Goodman Joins 07:38 - Reporting from the Front Lines 10:51 - The East Timor Massacre 17:56 - Corporate Power in Nigeria 28:28 - Holding Presidents Accountable 41:08 - Media Consolidation 46:31 - History of the Pacifica Foundation 57:58 - Gaza and Dehumanization 01:03:26 - Post-Traumatic Show Disorder 01:12:33 - Breaking Down The Discussion 01:18:24 - Audience Q&A This episode is brought to you by: GROUND NEWS - Go to https://groundnews.com/stewart to see all sides of every story.
