 GRITtv - September 8, 2008
from GRITtv with Laura Flanders
September 08, 2008
With news that MSNBC is removing Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews out of the anchors chairs for its election coverage some are wondering if the Right has scored a victory. But what about the impact of independent media at the conventions? Would we have heard about the overwhelming assault on civil liberties and free speech in St. Paul? On our media roundtable Kerry Eleveld Senior Political Reporter and News Editor of The Advocate, Chris Owens radio host of Black Politics with Chris Owens on Air America, Ka Chan communications director of the New York Community Media Alliance, and Dean Baker Co-Director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research look back at the past week's coverage of the conventions, Sarah Palin, and the economy. In the world of media, talk radio has certainly been a key part of the Republican s rise and hold on power, stoking the culture wars and spreading misinformation. Here to discuss just how shock jocks have monopolized our airwaves and how we can fight back is Rory O Connor, the author of Shock Jocks: Hate Speech ve heard so little about them. Four hurricanes in less than four weeks have left many Haitians without water or food but you d hardly know it reading the news here in the United States. And the American News Project takes a look at Republican views on global warming. It s not surprising that Sarah Palin, a global warming doubter, is popular among this crowd. Finally Ill Doctrine on the Republican Hater s Ball. GRITtv is streaming live everyday at 12 eastern. We want to hear from you! Tomorrow's panel takes on how Obama/Biden and the rest of us should respond to Sarah Palin. Be part of the conversation.

 GRITtv Roundtable: Steve Rosenfeld, Joe Richey, Scott Rafferty and Mimi Kennedy (Live From DNC)
from GRITtv with Laura Flanders
August 27, 2008
The DNC has pledged $20 milliion dollars for a community-based voter registration drive -- they and the Obama campaign plan to register millions of new voters between now and November, the largest voter registration drive since the 1960s. It's a departure for Democratic presidential campaigns: The '08 effort is seeking to blend the best aspects of community organizing, with established, nuts-and-bolts voter outreach tactics. That's the good news. But there are questions about whether the system can absorb millions of new voters and Voting Integrity experts are worried. We learned during the primary that the system can't digest high traffic. Will a paperwork blizzard overwhelm clerks, will registration forms be processed? Will the voters dodge purges? Be accepted at the polling places -- and when they cast their vote, will it be counted - as cast? As our panel notes the Republican Party knows that you need to shape the electorate by complicating the process. And they'll be sure to take advantage of what many are predicting will be massive turnout. Here to discuss how you can make sure your vote is counted are Steve Rosenfeld, Senior Fellow at Alternet.org and the author of Count My Vote, A citizen s Guide to Voting which has launched a campaign for zealous monitoring of voting rights going into the 2008 elections; Joe Richey, electoral activist Scott Rafferty, a lawyer who sued the Veterns Administration in 2004 when the agency blocked voter registration efforts by Democrats at its campus in Menlo Park, California, but allowed the Republican Party onto the campus to register voters; and Mimi Kennedy, actress/activist, co-chair of Progressive Democrats of America.
