Showing results for "The Twenty" in Elections & Political Process

Die Volksparteien sind in der Defensive. In den Jahren der großen Koalitionen hat sich der politische Meinungsstreit an die Ränder des politischen Spektrums verlagert. Sie werden immer stärker, während die politische Mitte weithin sprachlos bleibt. Die SPD befindet sich im freien Fall, doch auch die CDU verliert immer weiter an Wählerzuspruch – eine hochbrisante Entwicklung für das Parteiensystem und die parlamentarische Demokratie, wie wir sie kennen.

In 1996 Amy Goodman started a radio show called Democracy Now! to focus on the issues that are underreported or ignored by mainstream news coverage. Shortly after September 11, 2001, they were broadcasting on television every weekday. Today it is the only public media in the US that airs simultaneously on satellite and cable television, radio, and the Internet. Now Amy and her journalist brother, David, share stories of the progressive heroes - the whistleblowers, the organizers, the protestors - who have brought about remarkable, often invisible change.

"No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider." Did you know that these 26 words are responsible for much of America's multibillion-dollar online industry? What we can and cannot write, say, and do online is based on just one law - a law that protects online services from lawsuits based on user content. Jeff Kosseff exposes the workings of section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which has lived mostly in the shadows since its enshrinement in 1996.

As television began to overtake the political landscape in the 1960s, network broadcast companies, bolstered by powerful lobbying interests, dominated screens across the nation. Yet over the next three decades, the expansion of a different technology, cable, changed all of this. 24/7 Politics tells the story of how the cable industry worked with political leaders to create an entirely new approach to television, one that tethered politics to profits.

The principles presented in this book are a very valuable sum of the practical and scientific knowledge that the human being uses to dominate others, through persuasion, in all aspects of life: the producer of the favorite program, the car salesman, the presidential candidate, the crying little girl, the elementary teacher, and even our mother use some of these principles without knowing it. Only a few privileged people knew them formally to dominate the will of others; now you also have the power in your hands.

This is an up-close journey into one of the most controversial events in recent history, the January 6 Trump rally. This story is told firsthand, as I recall how I hit the ground that day and conducted some amazing interviews. I attended this event as both a supporter of Trump and a journalist, so that being said, this piece is subjective. Also, I was already in a vehicle leaving DC when the riots began to take place, so I had no part in any "insurrection", nor did I have any knowledge of anything of the sort happening. All names have been changed!
