Presentation: “A Progressive Response to an Undemocratic Media”
Author: Wally Bowen, founder and executive director of the Mountain Area Information Network (MAIN)

“A Progressive Response to an Undemocratic Media” is a 90-minute video featuring MAIN executive director Wally Bowen outlining how our nation lost a democratic media in the decades following the Civil War — and how we can get it back.
