Re:intersting speech by John Pilger about the media 15 Years ago
Hes getting better at public speaking. I remember him getting a heavy time from the party hacks when he shared a stage with the late ,great, Paul Foot at one of the SWPs Marxism events bout twenty years ago.Think he a regular at that event nowadays.Dont think hes there this year but Guardian journalist Gary Younge and Irish activist Bernadette McAliskey are among the featured speakers announced so far.
Re:intersting speech by John Pilger about the media 15 Years ago
wow..Bernadette McAliskey would be interesting. I remember all those years ago when she was elected to Parliament..people carried on like the world was coming to an end.
I like Pilger's speechs although I've heard few..I think he makes every word count.
And I agree..the wonderful Paul Foot..a true humanitarian..a great fighter for the oppressed and wrongly convicted and a gentle and lovely soul.
