- From the Publisher:
In The Exception to the
Rulers, award-winning journalist Amy Goodman, with the aid of her brother
David, exposes the lies, corruption, and crimes of the power elite -- an elite
that is bolstered by large media conglomerates. Her goal is "to go where the
silence is, to give voice to the silenced majority." As Goodman travels
around the country, she is fond of quoting Margaret Mead: "Never doubt that a
small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. Indeed, it's
the only thing that ever has." This book informs and empowers people to act on
that principle.
For years, Amy Goodman has confronted the Washington establishment and its
corporate cronies while giving voice to the voiceless. She hosts the national
radio and TV show Democracy Now!, which began in 1996 as the only daily
election show in public broadcasting. It is now the largest public media
collaboration in North America. Democracy Now! is not just a show. It
is a movement.
