9. It's way better than what passes for news on the rest of TV and radio.
They actually talk about things that "our" Democratic politicians (with the exception of Kucinich and a few others) refuse to talk about. And Democracy Now points out the single biggest flaw of our system: corporate money in politics. These corporations give money to whomever they think is going to win. It corrupts everybody in the system because money talks. These corporate fat-cat politicians pay more attention to the money than they do to us. Democrats are as bad as Republicans in this way and I'm sorry Amy Goodman and company point out some ugly truths on this matter that you do not like to hear. Our precious Obama and other leaders are simply the other side of the coin from Republicans. They also point out our many, many policy disasters when it comes to Israel/Palestine, Iraq, South and Central America and many, many others.

They interviewed people inside.
