Join me as Greg Palast and I discuss Grand Theft AUTO on tonight's Palast Report!

Jeez, the way I interview Media Matters representatives like Communications Director Erica Knuti week after week, you'd think I find their coverage of media-- well, matters-- important!  And I do.  Today, conservative misinformation about Sonia Sodormayor gets a good once over!  Join us!

Obama SCOTU nominee Sonia Sotomayor is under attack from the red-meat right and the MSM is of course, reporting on that CONFLICT instead of the news about Sotomayor: she just may be qualified! 

Mark Karlin-- one of the Internet's finest thinkers-- joins me to discuss torture deaths.  SCOTU gets it's first Latina nomination with Sonia Sotomayer, Korea 'tests' US with missile launch, California prop barring civil rights for gays gets tested, and a kid choosing to avoid toxic US pharma chemo treatment gets a day in court.  And it's only TUESDAY!

Yep, we all get a day off so my audio fairy chris Snyder and I are taking one too-- HOWEVER-- if you're streaming fear not.  For thos whom issed this past Friday's interview with banding activist John Ridgway you can catch it here tonight!

 Greg Palast discusses the Free Choice we DON'T have joining unions, branding guru and self-styled 'brand activist'  John Ridgway discusses bank brand suicide and the newly amended Truth in Lending Act !  THANK GOD IT'S FRIDAY!!!!!!

The Medical-Industrial-Complex and their right wing allies prefer the status quo in American Health Care to any of the reform proposals being discussed in Congress.  Recently, right wing messaging and framing Guru Dr. Frank Luntz* distributed their new strategy to derail ANY health care reform.  It's already being parroted by leaders on the right and their media mouthpieces. 

Rescheuled from May 13, Media Matters Action Network Managing Director, Ari Rabin-Havt*, discusses the launch of a new project dedicated to correcting conservative misinformation propagated by Members of Congress, think tanks, advocacy groups and lobbyists.

If you feel that the battle for equality, clean air and health insurance that SHOULD cover you would have improved with the election of Obama-- and has not-- you are correct.  That is because the engine behind GOP messaging that counters your policies, from think tanks like the Heritage Foundation and messaging elites like Frank Luntz, are in high gear.  Repeating your position LOUDER will not win for your interests.  Undermining their strategy by understanding its origins will.  Today we look into the Heritage Foundation's free market dogma through their unholy marriage of God and Greed.

Like her or love her, the current GOP feeding frenzy on Speaker Pelosi is intended to accomplish only one thing: BLOODY THE WATERS-- and obscure the issue that really counts-- Bush admin culpability for torture.  Media Matters Senior Fellow Karl Frisch joins me to rip open the attack on Pelosi vis-a-vis his new article: The right's tortured shell game.
