XX - Static, by Amy Goodman and David Goodman
WHY I PICKED IT: They sent it to me (signed!) when I donated money to Democracy Now!
ELAPSED TIME: 3 Days
RATING: Very Good
This book, about how the US Government lies and the Corporate Media perpetuate and communicate those lies to Americans (and others around the world), is brilliant. However, I couldn't finish it because it made me very angry. (VERY!).
That a government that purportedly stands for Human Rights and Democracy knowingly seeks to violates the first of those values and undermine the second of those values is maddening.
This blog is a simple review of every book that I read... For all books I’ll tell you why I picked it, how long it took me to read it, and give it a rating (burn it, not good, meh, good, very good, and required reading). I ask (encourage?) all readers of my blog to post their thoughts of any of the books in my comments :). Thanks!
