David Goodman is an independent journalist, a contributing writer for Mother Jones, and host of the radio show, The Vermont Conversation. Amy and David Goodman, along with Denis Moynihan, have co-authored a new book, Democracy Now! It looks back over the past twenty years of Democracy Now! and considers that as courts and governments abdicate their responsibilities, it has fallen to ordinary people to hold the powerful accountable.
