My 2 Cents

Every generation has it's voice in the newsroom. Journalists who tells the public what they need to hear regardless of it's popularity. In the 80's & 90's it was Tom Brokaw and Dan Rather doing whatever it took to get the Truth to the public. Today with the Internet and 24 hr news networks we turn to CNN when news breaks. Two well respected journalists have taken the responsibility to tell the truth... no matter what... Lou Dobbs and Anderson Cooper.

Lou Dobbs, author of the books Exporting America and War on the Middle Class takes an hour every weekday to fill us in on the issues. Often exposing today's government and social issues before anyone else. From reporting on the true dilemmas we face on immigration, to the trials we are up against with our economy Lou Dobbs never holds back the truth from Americans on the home front. It is equally as important in this global age to know about foreign policy and how our actions effect the world, and Anderson Cooper is "in the know". His uncensored look at the Iraq war along with his relentless effort to pull the cooperate media wool from our eyes and prepare Americans for possible dangers that most would choose to ignore until it is too late. Before Katrina hit New Orleans Anderson was doing everything he could to inform the public of the grave danger that was coming based on scientific evidence that some how was not released by our federal government. Anderson was also one of the first to give a point of view of the Iraq War that cooperate media is so often criticized for hiding.
