Customer Reviews
Truthdig is one a my favorite blogs. One of the best out there.
Robert Scheeer is a hero of mine. I wish I had known of him when I was growing up in a fundie church and in a military family. ( in my up bringing I was told that secular humanists/liberals/universities where of "SATAN") Truth has a certain ring to it when it is expressed and that ring seems to emanate from Truthdigs blog/podcast more than most. Robert has the best and the brightest on his Truthdig blog/podcasts and I always look forward to hearing his views. Thank-you Robert for your courage over the years. Podcats from Truthdig (when they post them) are great and worth every minute.
Iraq from the inside
'Iraq from the inside' was truly an inspiring look at the hopes and humanity of civilians within Iraq. Another fantastic offering from Truthdig, which puts out high-quality episodes on extremely important issues.
Great program!!
I listen to this and Alternative Radio every week! It is one of the most informative programs out there. Having programs like this may avert Sheldon's idea of a non-informed public and help keep us all caring about the way our country is run.
