America: Meet Your Overlord Rupert Murdoch...
By Thom Hartmann A...
The main lesson that we've learned so far from the impeachment hearings is that if Richard Nixon had had a billionaire like Rupert Murdoch with a television network like Fox News behind him, he never would've resigned and America would have continued to be presided over by a criminal. Donald Trump spends almost every morning and every evening live tweeting Fox News, and if that network truly is his principal source of news and information and he is ignoring his own intelligence services, as has been reported on multiple occasions and is apparent from his Twitter feed, then Rupert Murdoch is running this country and we are in a serious crisis.Add to that the fact that many of the Republican legislators also seem to be living inside the Fox News bubble and believing the Fox News propaganda, and we have a genuine crisis of governance that goes way beyond the White House.

From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann seeks out interesting subjects from such disparate outposts of curiosity that you have to wonder whether or not he uncovered them or they selected him."
From Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."
