Nation Magazine's Katrina vanden Heuvel is this week's guest on McChesney's Media Matters
Katrina vanden Heuvel is Bob McChesney's guest today.
It should be an interesting program now that Democrats have "retaken" the House and Senate in this year's mid-term elections. The big question is: will Democrats make a difference-- or stay the course of war and more war?
A live audio stream will be accessible on the internet at 11 am Pacific Time, and the archived program should be available with past programs beginning tomorrow.

From the Media Matter's website:

'The media are central to all our lives,” he says. “Yet the media are the most frequently misunderstood parts of our lives. We want to help people understand the role of media in society.'"

Nation Editorial (November 28, 2005 issue)
"We will not support any candidate for national office who does not make a speedy end to the war in Iraq a major issue of his or her campaign. We urge all voters to join us in adopting this position."

Open Letter to The Nation Magazine (October 26, 2006)
"Some time back, well before the 2006 primaries and with great fanfare, The Nation issued a pledge to endorse only those candidates who made immediate withdrawal from Iraq one of the leading points in their campaign. It called on others to do likewise. It sounded like a superb idea, and I waited for those endorsements - but I waited in vain."
