On this special fund-drive episode, Mickey’s first guest is journalist Jeff Cohen, who discusses the career and legacy of the late Phil Donahue. Donahue was an innovative television talk-show host, who was fired by MSNBC when he continued interviewing pro-peace guests during the buildup to the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq.

Then Mickey interviews author Norman Solomon about the bias in corporate-media coverage of Israel’s assault on Gaza (which obscures the essential U.S. connection) and in overall coverage of war and the U.S. military.

Jeff Cohen is a co-founder of the media-watch group FAIR (www.fair.org), and the author of Cable News Confidential. He was senior producer of Phil Donahue’s MSNBC show in 2003, when it was canceled.

Norman Solomon is an author and media critic. A new edition of his book War Made Invisible, contains an afterword about the Israeli attack on Gaza. More information can be found at www.warmadeinvisible.org.
