Reviews

Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Maleeha Vincent It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
kevinhig It is refreshing to see honest, unbiased reporting of important stories through out the world. Thank you for your work DN!
ndeisman Serious daily news program without the sensationalism seen in other programs. Deals with real US and International issues which affect us in the real world. They do an excellent job with issues which are dismissed by other news agencies. Amy Goodman frequently travels to local and global locations to investigate what is really happening on the ground and is not an embedded reporter.
Laura Wilkinson This radio show is as equally biased as Rush Limbaugh is for the Right wing hard cores. If you want to know what spins up a Liberal, give it a listen. I personally change the station every time it airs on my local NPR station. The recent Memorial Day broadcast of so called 'Veterans' giving back or throwing away their medals attempting to make a statement against wars the US is/have been involved was disgusting.To me, this show does not report the news factually. Instead it is opinionated blather.
Lee Eisenberg I usually listen to the "Democracy Now!" radio broadcast, but I do occasionally get to see the TV show, and I've liked it every time. Featuring Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzalez reporting on things going on in the world, you can tell that they take journalism seriously (among other things, Amy Goodman doesn't focus on her looks). Seeing that it started in 2001, I suspect that they launched it to challenge the support-America-no-matter-what zeitgeist that arose after the September 11 attacks and scared all other media outlets into submission. Though such a mentality has subsided in the six years since (actually, it'll be the six year anniversary in four days), it's a good thing that they challenge the party line.The most recent TV broadcast that I saw featured an interview with City Lights bookstore owner Lawrence Ferlinghetti, and he recounted stories of the Beat generation. This episode certainly offered a glimpse into the world of honest journalism that "Democracy Now!" represents. I would say that anyone who actually cares about democracy should at least listen to the radio broadcast and watch the TV show if possible. I consider this one (along with "The Daily Show" and "Real Time with Bill Maher") the most reliable media source of all. Of course, I realize that the Bush lovers out there wouldn't even give it the time of day.
