The Gutenberg press was the catalyst for the Renaissance and the Reformation, but it shaped what we communicated as much as how we communicated. What, then, to make of the electronic global village of our modern Gutenberg revolution? Are we on the cusp of a new Renaissance, or will this technology only further degrade a culture already in decline? The promise of the Internet: Library of Alexandria or Library of Babel?
This week we open the vaults of The Film Archive, a vast treasure trove of archival footage on everything from old documentaries to CIA training films to educational cartoons to Duke Ellington performances…and much much more.
From the Golden Triangle to the Golden Crescent, from its early origins to it current operations, the CIA has long been immersed in the murky underworld of drug trafficking. Join us this week as we dig up some of the skulls and bones in the CIA’s closet in Burma, Laos, Afghanistan, Mexico and beyond.
What is “the rule of law”? On what basis do we institute laws and why should we obey them? Are laws for the protection of unalienable rights, and if so, how do we derive our knowledge of those rights? Are governments necessary for the enforcement of the laws? Join us this week on The Corbett Report as we go in search of natural law.
From Romania to Egypt, even our recent history is replete with examples of how the people can stand up en masse and take down a dictator…but what if overthrowing the dictator is the easy part? This week on The Corbett Report we ask the question behind the question of how to overthrow a dictator: How to overthrow the power structure that underlies the dictatorship.
As we move into the next era of The Corbett Report, it’s time to raise the bar. Join us this week on The Corbett Report as we delve further into the pedagogy of the oppressed…and how to liberate ourselves through self-education.
The Corbett Report turns 200 so we spend some time to go through the archive and uncover some of the hidden gems amongst the episodes, articles, interviews and videos that we’ve created over the past four years.
Those who believe that they have been told the truth about 9/11 often believe so because of their ignorance of of the official story. The establishment and the media love to portray the government’s version of 9/11 as a coherent, monolithic and universally accepted body of documented facts, but nothing could be further from the truth. The information that contradicts the official story is sometimes contradictory and often convoluted, but we will never arrive at the truth and achieve justice for the victims of 9/11 if we don’t begin the process of asking the tough questions about the official story…and demanding answers.
In this special documentary edition of The Corbett Report, we present 35 points of dispute with the “official” version of 9/11 for your consideration. If you find this information useful, please pass it on to others. Below is a list of documentation sourcing all of the clips in today’s episode. This is a starting point for investigation, not an ending point.
