Free Speech TV: Amy Goodman on checks and balances
Back by popular demand, Amy Goodman explains (shortly after being let out of jail) why we need the checks and balances of a free press in our society. Those of you that were dozing during high school civics class or are too far removed to remember this, please pay attention.
Note: the producers mentioned in this video have since been released from jail thanks to Congressman Keith Ellison (D-MN).
Pps: You could still call the numbers listed to let them know that this behavior is unacceptable
