From: Jeff Cohen for PDA [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, May 28, 2009 8:34 AM Subject: TV News Exposed!
My book is "Cable News Confidential: My Misadventures in Corporate Media." It contains everything I learned about corporate media bias and idiocy. The late great MOLLY IVINS called it "irresistibly funny." BARBARA EHRENREICH noted-quite accurately, unfortunately-that I could kiss my TV career goodbye. HOWARD ZINN called it a "devastating look at the corporate media from the inside" that future historians would use "as a primary source." And follow AMY GOODMAN's advice: "Put down your remote. Read this book and fight for change."

Dear Alex, How many PDA boardmembers were longtime on-air pundits on cable news, even getting paid to appear on Fox News Channel? Just one. Image removed by sender. Cable News Confidential: My Misadventures in Corporate MediaOnly yours truly was on Darth Murdoch's salary. How many had their TV careers terminated for questioning the wisdom of invading Iraq? Just me. (I was canned by MSNBC along with Phil Donahue.) How many battled Bob Novak and Pat Buchanan night after night on CNN's Crossfire? Just me again. I want to tell you everything I know from my years inside TV news-about pro-corporate bias, censorship of progressives, war cheerleading, the Pentagon's pundits, etc. Here's my offer. You donate to PDA-either become a $20 per month contributor or donate $200 <http://www.thedatabank.com/dpg/309/donate.asp?formid=donate> -and I'll give you a copy of my insider's book and my pledge to answer your emailed questions about the book. (Insert "Jeff Cohen" in the special funds drive box at the bottom of the page.) Because I believe in PDA's mission of "Healthcare Not Warfare" and its bravery in continuing the battle for genuine healthcare reform known as Enhanced Medicare for All, I'm donating as many books free to PDA as it can use for fundraising purposes.
