Event
Modern Media Censorship Lecture 9
Syndicated reporter and editor of the Progressive Magazine, Mr. Rothschild will be at Sonoma State University on Thursday, December 4, 2008, to present his stories about the Infragard alliance that deputizes private industry and the new laws that allow officials to seize the assets of people who criticize the government.
According to Rothschild, the Infragard alliance is a group of private industry leaders working with the FBI and Homeland Security to collect and provide information on America citizens. Information provided is beyond the reach of the Freedom of Information Act under the trade secrets exemption and members are discouraged from communicating with the public or media.
Rothschild will also talk about new laws passed by executive order which allows the government to seize the assets of war protestors and others critical of government policies, essentially criminalizing the right to dissent.
Rothschild has appeared on Nightline, C-SPAN, the OReilly Factor, and NPR, and Hannity & Colmes. His newspaper commentaries have run in many of the countrys major papers. He hosts a weekly syndicated radio program called Progressive Radio, and does a two-minute radio commentary entitled Progressive Point of View which is also syndicated. Rothschild publications include You Have No Rights: Stories of America in an Age of Repression (The New Press, 2007).
