THIS THURSDAY, July 17, 2014, on Political Analysis: Guests: Journalist/Author Paul M. Barrett and Activist/Author Sandra Steingraber Paul M. Barrett will join Sandy and Steve for the first half hour, to discuss Chevron in Ecuador -- and the tort suit that wont go away, filed more than two decades ago by attorney Steven Donziger. PM Barrett is author of the book Glock: The Rise of Americas Gun, as well as a soon-to-be-published book titled, Law of the Jungle: The $19 Billion Legal Battle Over Oil in the Rain Forest and the Lawyer Whod Stop at Nothing to Win. He is assistant managing editor and senior writer at Bloomberg Businessweek and a former editor and legal affairs reporter for The Wall Street Journal. Later in the hour, Activist/Author Sandra Steingraber joins us to discuss (among other things) LNG, fracked gas AND her upcoming speaking engagement in Berkeley, where she addresses the impact of fracking on human health. Also, well be asking her about the importance of courage in a culture where discretion and deference to authority are increasingly encouraged -- or even rewarded -- and confrontation and/or whistleblowing is condemned as confrontational or even punishable by law. prn.fm/category/archives/political-analysis/
