Please subscribe! Socialist and purveyor of anti-American agitprop Amy Goodman - host of Democracy Now! - joins CNN's Brian Stelter for an interview on Reliable Sources.

On September 3, the Dakota Access pipeline company attacked Native Americans with dogs and pepper spray as they protested against the $3.8 billion pipeline's construction. If completed, the pipeline would carry about 500,000 barrels of crude per day from North Dakota’s Bakken oilfield to Illinois. The project has faced months of resistance from the Standing Rock Sioux tribe and members of nearly 100 more tribes from across the U.S. and Canada.
One of three Interviews with Amy Goodman Host of Democracy Now. Goodman talked with me about her near death experience covering a story, her encounter with Bill Clinton and what it takes to be a true journalist.
Amy Goodman (Democracy Now)Meets Bill Clinton (Nov. 8, 2000) I think this "accidental encounter" is so instructive in so many ways that I thought it worth hearing the full 28 minutes, rather than the 10-minute excerpts of just "the outburst" currently available.

DemocracyNow.org - When conservative billionaire David Koch sat down as a member of the New York delegation Thursday night on the floor of the Republican National Convention, Democracy Now! host Amy Goodman attempted to ask him one question: "Mr. Koch, do you think unchecked concentration of wealth will undermine democracy?" While Koch started to answer, the delegates and security around him stood up, one by one, creating a human wall between them. One of those who stood up was Ed Cox, chair of the Republican Party of New York and the son-in-law of President Richard Nixon.

To watch the complete coverage of the Republican National Convention on this weekday independent news hour, read the transc...
