Ep 7. Norman Solomon on Obama's Pursuit of James Risen | Imaginary Lines

“Imaginary Lines” analyzes the coverage offered by the mass commercial media in the Global North as compared to how the same stories are reported from a perspective of the Global South In today’s program; Western mass media coverage of the life, murder, and beatification of Salvadoran Archbishop Oscar Romero and the case of whistleblower and journalist James Risen, who faces prison for refusing to disclose his sources for his expose on how the CIA sabotaged Irán nuclear energy program. Imaginary Lines host Chris Spannos interviews Norman Solomon, Executive Director of the Institute for Public Accuracy.
