Lee Camp: Can I pay with my liver?

in #news7 years ago

On the list of the best horror movies of all times, the third place is reserved for Alfred Hitchcock’s “Psycho”. At the firm second place is the attempt of Sarah Palin to give a speech out of her own brain (see it again in this episode of “Redacted Tonight” — if you dare!) and the first place movie is developed – as we speak – by the US government under the working title “False Scarcity”, with all of you as the main vict… actors!



In this episode of Redacted Tonight, host Lee Camp breaks down one of the most harmful lies that is being told and retold, that of “scarcity.” In an era of abundance and technological advances, advertising and corporations help reinforce this lie which leaves millions of Americans without basic needs. What will people come up with next to justify not helping the poor, sick, and starving? Then Lee reports on the disappearance of Confederate statues in the South and why people are mourning this loss. Then, we learn Julian Assange is finally cleared of the sexual assault allegations against him, but will he be treated fairly by the US government? As much as everyone is obsessed with the glowing orb, the more important story is about the weapons deal made at the Trump–Saudi meeting.



In the second half of the show, correspondent Naomi Karavani joins Lee at the desk to report on a pro-Trump conservative media company, the Sinclair Broadcasting group, which is set to become the largest owner of local news stations in the country.
