Amy Goodman, along with co-host Juan González and Pacifica Radio, launched Democracy Now! on WBAI 30 years ago as the only daily election show in public broadcasting. It grew from 9 community radio stations to television as well the week of the 9/11 attacks in 2001. There's a new Documentary about Amy and Democracy Now, called Steal this Story, Please!. We speak with the film's Oscar-nominated directors Carl Deal and Tia Lessin. Their previous films include Citizen Koch and Trouble the Water. The film's executive producers include Jane Fonda, Rosario Dawson, and Tom Morello. The documentary has won over a dozen audience favorite and jury prizes at major film festivals around the country and will be screened in theaters nationwide.
"People want to see and read and hear content that speaks to this grave political moment, and this film does just that," says Tia Lessin.
Democracy Now! "has been leading this effort in bringing stories in from the ground — the stories that are shut out of the mainstream quite frequently," adds Carl Deal.
