“A
slim powderkeg of a book.”
—KWGS Radio, Tulsa, Oklahoma
“[A]
must-read for alternative media activists and supporters.”
—What's Up Magazine
“[A]
short, incisive dissection of a problem most American media consumers probably
haven't even noticed. Barsamian…makes a powerful argument that not only
have private, corporate media been wholly co-opted by monied interests, but
so have National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting System.”
—Daily Camera, Boulder,
Colorado
“David
Barsamian is one of the great journalists of our era, and a giant of community
and public radio. The National Radio Project is among the most important independent
sources for broadcast journalism in the nation.”
—Robert McChesney, author of Rich Media, Poor
Democracy
“In The Decline and Fall
of Public Broadcasting, David Barsamian not only shows us how we can take
steps together to achieve a more democratic media, but how urgent it is that
we do.”
—Amy Goodman, from the foreword
“David Barsamian is the Studs
Terkel of our generation.”
—Howard Zinn
