Best of CounterSpin, 2007
(1/4/08–1/10/08)
(1/4/08–1/10/08)
CounterSpin provides a critical examination of the major stories every week, and exposes what the mainstream media might have missed in their own coverage. Combining lively discussion and a thoughtful media critique, CounterSpin is unlike any other show on the dial.
CounterSpin exposes and highlights biased and inaccurate news; censored stories; sexism, racism and homophobia in the news; the power of corporate influence; gaffes and goofs by leading TV pundits; TV news' narrow political spectrum; attacks on free speech; and more.
"You should tune in to CounterSpin, the program that sees things and says things about the media you'll see no place else."
