  • I downloaded “History of the national security state” last night.

    It was a little weak. Gore Vidal’s part is limited to about half an hour. The other speakers real are not that great either, of course I feel bad saying that about Ray McGovern.

  • What’s to stop interest groups funding the Real News, besides my liking of it.

  • Its a shame that so many weren’t paying attention during “history” class, indeed weren’t encouraged to really pay attention instead of absorbing “text bites” in order to pass the tests. The information is there for all to see. Unfortunately, reading isn’t even encouraged now…unless the information is posted on-line.

    Thank god for YouTube.

  • pizza -” = no last very long.” – that’s only because you haven’t seen it in action as of yet. THIS idea IS the future, if you want to have any sort of balance in information.

  • Within this New Age that we are entering there will be soon the marked division between then forces of Good and Evil. I can read the disgruntled comments all day long, however child like they appear. It is with the greatest anticipation that I wait for the soon to be “End Of All Time”. Don’t any of you Dummies think that this means the World is coming to an end. Oh No, just the “Ignorant” ones of this race will have to go, that all! Hope the rest of you are ready for the
    BEST !!! Peace.

  • Ron Paul is my man!!

  • Well, Yea! Everything you said is true. I think the main difference is that the neo-cons are all a bunch of chickenhawks. They never had the guts to serve in the military but think they can wage war whenever it suits them. McCain on the other hand served his country & has respect for the troops. He will not fuck around & milk a war for all its worth like Bush & his cronies. He will just destroy everything in his path, make lots of new enemies, keep it all a secret, & then pull out ASAP. He sucks

  • You really can’t do $10/month?

  • Ok you may be right, but doesn’t he support nation building, NAFTA, globalism, surveillance grid, Israeli Zionism, war profiteering, and the such? Old warfart is an understatement with him. He’s spineless. At least we agree he’s a war-mongerer.

  • yea its funny laughing at the proposed legislation that would give us the right to self governance.

    god damn slaves fighting to keep themselves in slavery. You’re a joke.

  • How I wish I had the money to get this video. I’ll have to wait until it pops up on the net I suppose.

  • No, McCain is an old military man who thinks war is the answer to everything because its all he understands. He is not part of the neo-con though. Rudy was their man. They are backing McCain because he will continue the war. But he is not a neo-con. He’s a hawkish, old warfart.

  • McCain is a neo-con. He’s not only a neo-con he’s a lapdog for this administration with no backbone. He doesn’t understand foreign policy and he doesn’t have a clue about economic issues. Anyone that votes for him is just an idiot, sorry.

    Is this an advert?

  • Some of the reporting on “The Real News” is not very accurate. Like the report Pepe did on McCain, calling him a neo-con. And also the clip called “Obama faces racism in WV”. That report was terrible! Your network sometimes tries to paint the picture that YOU want people to see. Not always what’s REAL.

  • The one-time donation on the website is not $120, but $75 and it says for another $20 you get a Real News shirt.

  • I don’t have $120, but I have $5. I’ll donate that.

    I wonder if I could at least get special “broke-ass donater” access to a streamed version of the documentary. I don’t need it on DVD 🙂

  • Anyone can contribute, even if it’s 10 Dollars.
    Make a simple sacrifice and you’ll see you have money for news.
    Plus, this is for our own good, think about it.

  • ORDER out of CHAOS.
    Remember that. That’s what fascist governments create.
    ORDER out of CHAOS.

  • Shit. I have never contributed. I watch most of the videos, and not only value having this perspective available, but also realize that without watching these videos I would probably not even be exposed to many of the issues addressed here. I owe a contribution. I wish I had something to contribute.

    y2knoproblem should seek the facts from reality instead of pulling them out of his ass.

    man, everyone is hard up for money right now. This is the 3rd independant news show that I watch that is begging for money. It’s hard times for everyone right now.
