The Exception To The Rulers by Amy E. Goodman

This book surveys post-9/11 efforts by government and corporate interests to suppress dissent, curtail press freedoms, and expand secrecy and surveillance, documenting how journalists, whistleblowers, activists and marginalized communities have been targeted or sidelined while powerful narratives go unchallenged; it combines investigative reporting, first-hand accounts and legal analysis to show the erosion of civil liberties and the complicity of mainstream media, and argues for the necessity of independent journalism, transparency and grassroots activism to defend democratic rights.
