Tune in to The Free Speech Zone on Sunday night January 15th at 7 pm to hear a Media Matters/Bob McChesney interview with Thomas Frank, author of the new book: Pity the Billionaire. Frank examines the peculiar mechanism by which dire economic circumstances have delivered wildly unexpected political results. Using firsthand reporting, a deep knowledge of the American Right, and a wicked sense of humor, he gives the first full diagnosis of the cultural malady that has transformed collapse into profit, reconceived the Founding Fathers as heroes from an Ayn Rand novel, and enlisted the powerless in a fan club for the prosperous. The understanding Frank reaches is at once startling, original, and profound.  Thomas Frank is an American journalist, a former columnist for the Wall Street Journal, and current columnist for Harper’s Magazine and previously the author of What’s The Matter With Kansas?.

“The people, unfortunately, are still very ignorant,
and are kept in ignorance by the systematic efforts
of all the governments, who consider this ignorance,
not without good reason, as one of the essential
conditions of their own power.”  ~ Mikhail Bakunin  1871
