Whatever Happened to "Democracy Now?"
Thursday, 12 June 2008 10:23

This is the second time in a week where Goodman’s editorial judgment has 
left me deeply disappointed. First was the refusal to cover -- yet again 
-- the AIPAC conference, with all its implications for US politics and 
the Middle East. In a year when even the mainstream media was finally 
forced to take notice (with Jon Stewart of the Daily Show going so far 
as to refer to the lobby group as the 'Elders of Zion', Democracy Now 
appeared alone in missing the irony of three presidential candidates 
pledging to fight the domination of lobbyists in Washington genuflect to 
the most powerful of them all.

Anti-war protesters banned from demonstrating against Bush
Thursday, 12 June 2008 09:14

London police have announced a ban on anti-war campaigners hoping to 
protest against President George Bush's visit to Downing Street this 
Sunday. The Whitehall ban has been immediately condemned as a 
"totalitarian act" by the playwright Harold Pinter, while Stop the War 
organisers are urging people to defy it and to demonstrate nearby in 
Parliament Square.

"In what is supposed to be a free country the Stop the War Coalition has 
every right to express its views peacefully and openly. This ban is 
outrageous and makes the term 'democracy' laughable," Pinter said today.

Lindsey German, a leader of the Stop the War Coalition, said: "It seems 
that when George W Bush visits this country traditional rights of 
assembly are to be removed from the people.
