1. Watch for Tweety to interrupt and cut her off repeatedly

He always does this with liberal guests.. I will not be surprised either if there is someopne from "the other side" who will yell and interrupt too..

Glad to see her getting invited, but it's too little too late.

2. too little too late for Tweety

for sure!

though maybe some folks will discover Democracy Now! IMO, by far the best progressive news program in the USA.

3. Whoah...

...looks like I'm going to watch his show for once.

[Bozita]

4. Thanks for the notice

[Tomee450]

5. I've

had enough of Matthews. I will not watch his show even to see Amy Goodman. I tried to give Matthews the benefit of the doubt but have come to the conclusion that he has a real mean streak and will usually be unfair to Democrats.

6. I'm going to find a TV with cable and watch Goodman kick his butt.

And she *will* kick his butt. I would bet even some freepers will agree with me if they decide to tune in.

[G_j]

7. one thing is for sure

she is far more intelligent and actually has real integrity.

[MsUSA]

8. Found this article on Amy. When I'd see she was going to be on

C-SPAN, I'd call work and tell them I was going to be late so I could see and listen to her. http://observer.com/pages/nytv.asp

9. great article

thanks!

here is a snip~

But if you think the 47-year-old host of the liberal radio and TV show Democracy Now! and author of The Exception to the Rulers: Exposing Oily Politicians, War Profiteers, and the Media That Love Them—is on the far left, that’s just because everything you’re seeing and hearing on TV is in shades of red.

"It’s the right debating the far right," said Ms. Goodman on Monday, Nov. 15. "We need something outside that." Until now, Ms. Goodman has mainly had to confine her classic activism to a narrow sliver of FM radio—Pacifica Radio’s WBAI 99.5 FM—and to a simulcast cable-access program on Manhattan Neighborhood Network, BCAT, QPTV and CUNY-TV.

But now that the roar of the Presidential election has finally subsided, and Scott Peterson’s news value has screeched to a halt, cable newsmakers are looking for fresh material. Enter Ms. Goodman, an unapologetic progressive within a media that has run out of so many story lines that liberal activists are interesting once more. In her book, Ms. Goodman accuses the press of sucking up to government officials—"the access of evil"—and consisting of talking heads who, she said, "know so little about so much, commenting on every issue."

You know who you are.

10. kick

[G_j]

11. last kick...

[G_j]

12. anyone else

getting Hardball with NO sound? weird...

[w4rma]

13. figures. What cable company do you use? (nt)

[G_j]

15. 'Charter '

sound came back, but now I'm starting to wonder if Amy will be on.
The info came from today's DN 'newsletter', but they haven't mentioned her.
:shrug:

[Auntie Bush]

14. Just tuned in... Hope I didn't miss her.

[bemis12]

16. I don't think she was even on....

[mom-mad-about-bush]

17. I sat thru that hole (about the christian right)...I smell a set-up

Was that a set-up to get us to watch this stupid crap about the religious right, and how Bush is the leader of the religious right....bla...bla....bla????

[mom-mad-about-bush]

18. It only made me realize even more....how the religious right are the most

narrow minded group of people I have ever seen.

[G_j]

19. I have no idea

but I pasted the info above directly from the DN newsletter.

Having to listen to more crap about "values" was a real drag..
:-(

[mom-mad-about-bush]

20. Tell me about it.....my blood is boiling!

[G_j]

22. one comment was good at least

the guy from Sojourners said there are 2000 (?) references to the poor in the bible and people can't pick and choose their values.

[mom-mad-about-bush]

24. True....but, it didn't seem to make a bit of difference....he might as

well been speaking a different language. What about....there would be alot less abortions if there was less poverty in this country. But, no.....it's more important to force the men to marry the pregnant women. Now, if a man wants to get married to a women....he just needs to rape her. Good plan! If I could reach into the tv I would ring that guys neck!!!!

[Bozita]

21. Hardball is on again after Olbermann -- Is it a repeat?

[mom-mad-about-bush]

23. I'm never watching that stupid show again as long as Iive......I don't

care if God herself is going to be on.....I'm not watching!

[Jeanette in FL]

25. If I want to see Amy Goodman...

.. I will watch Democracy Now on Link TV. I will never watch Chris Matthews ever again. Was she ever on?

Heve not watched since 11/3, not going back now.

[mom-mad-about-bush]

26. NO

[G_j]

27. sorry everyone ..false alarm

I have no idea why...
