Corporate Media Continues Its Campaign For Escalation In Ukraine
In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Dr. Jemima Pierre, Haiti/Americas Coordinator for the Black Alliance for Peace to discuss the ongoing crisis in Haiti and Prime Minister Ariel Henry’s request for foreign armed forces to occupy Haiti under the guise of humanitarian intervention, what is really behind the protests in Haiti and who controls the strings of Ariel Henry, and why Haiti’s issue is actually an imperialism problem rather than any other justification for further intervention in the country.
In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by David Swanson, activist, journalist, radio host, Executive Director of World Beyond War and author of the book “Leaving World War II Behind” to discuss the growing threat of direct conflict between the US and Russia and why the lessons of the Cuban missile crisis have been forgotten, why the constant stream of propaganda from the corporate media is geared toward discouraging support for peace negotiations, and how support for peace is demonized as support for one side or another.
Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Ted Rall, award-winning editorial cartoonist and columnist, and author of the graphic novel, "The Stringer," to discuss the corporate media’s one-sided coverage of Russia’s special military operation in Ukraine and how that allows US officials to escalate the conflict, the Biden administration's clear attempts at activating its base ahead of the midterm elections by providing piecemeal reforms, and why the capitalist electoral system will never deliver on democracy for working, poor, and oppressed people and actively delegitimizes itself.
