Books @ the Pier, July 24, 2005. Amy Goodman listens intently to a comrade.
Amy is, of course, the host and executive producer of Democracy Now!,who one of the questioners described as "the bravest journalist in America." Amy, modestly denied the compliment pointing out many others who deserve the label.
She is also co-author of the national best-seller The Exception to the Rulers: Exposing Oily Politicians, written with her brother David Goodman. The book was chosen by independent bookstores as the #1 political title of the 2004 election season. The book was also chosen as one of the top 50 nonfiction books of 2004 by the editors of Publishers Weekly.
