DESCRIPTION:This lecture will focus on how, if one is willing to take some risks, it is 
 relatively easy to work as an independent journalist in this current 
 climate where the mainstream media is in a self-described “crisis.” 
 With newspaper sales diminishing and fewer people than ever watching 
 television for their news, the Internet leaves the door open for those 
 willing to take creative and sometimes personal risks in an effort toward 
 getting the truth out. Guided by Jamail, we will investigate the cracks in 
 the foundation of the dominant media monolith that allow our seeds of 
 resistance to sprout!\n\nDahr Jamail is an independent journalist who has 
 been covering the Middle East for five years. He reported for eight months 
 from occupied Iraq and is the author of Beyond the Green Zone: Dispatches 
 from an Unembedded Journalist in Occupied Iraq. Jamail writes regularly for 
 Inter Press Service, Foreign Policy in Focus, and TomDispatch.com. He has 
 also been published in The Independent, The Guardian, The Sunday Herald, 
 The Nation, and Al-Jazeera, among others.\n\n\n\n
