Transparency of the Decade Award

Wow, kudos to Robert McChesney:

“At the moment, the battle over network neutrality is not to completely eliminate the telephone and cable companies. But the ultimate goal is to get rid of the media capitalists in the phone and cable companies and to divest them from control.” 

“Our job is to make media reform part of our broader struggle for democracy, social justice, and, dare we say it, socialism.”

"[H]e admitted he is a socialist and said he was 'hesitant to say I’m not a Marxist.'”

Boy, does Obama need to call him to the White House and say, "C'mon, Bro, help me out here. This is how you say it."

And kudos to Fund for some pretty basic but nonetheless remarkable reporting.

This is of a piece with candidate Obama's statement that it might take 10 or 15 years to get to single payer.

We've already got single payer, we just don't know it.

Compared to just ONE decade before, to the AMA 1990 speech and you'll see how Prince had become jaded, filled with hubris, adopted a slight victimhood quality to his cadence, a conceit in the flip of his hair and swagger. This comment and observation doesn't take away from certain good positive things he says, however, there's an anger in him. It's somewhat unpleasant for me now, as it was then, to watch and see such a change in Prince. .::Modernaire

Wait so this was for his work in the '90s!?! Ehhhh... he SHOULD be getting awards and all but honestly this is the wrong one lol. Lifetime achievement would have been more appropriate.
