FW: Don't Get Fooled Again



To be honest, I'm less worried about the liars than I am about the ones
that do nothing and don't even try to stand up for anything.

 > Dear Robert,
 > 
 > We hold extraordinary events here at Kepler's Books in Menlo Park with some of 
 > the
 > finest political minds in the country, from investigative journalist Chris 
 > Hedges,
 > who brought his book Wages of Rebellion to us, to John Perkins, the author of 
 > Confessions
 > of An Economic Hit Man.
 > In a few weeks, we're hosting another unique event that we thought would appeal 
 > 
 > to you. Ari Rabin-Havt, the nationally broadcast radio show host who helms The 
 > Agenda
 > on Sirius XM will be at Kepler's for a special evening episode of In Deep Radio 
 > 
 > with Angie Coiro.
 > Ari is coming to talk about his new book, Lies, Incorporated. In this new book, 
 > 
 > Art Rabin-Havt and Media Matters for America unravel a conspiracy of lies that 
 > pulls
 > the wool over the eyes of the American public every day. Here he exposes a 
 > carefully
 > coordinated campaign of misinformation that seeks to  change the public's 
 > perception
 > of important issues like tobacco,  climate change, health care, immigration 
 > reform,
 > and more.
 > "Politicians lie," he writes in his introduction. "This behavior is not the 
 > monopoly
 > of any political party or ideology. They lie about their personal lives, their 
 > aberrant
 > behavior, and their records. This book is not about those lies.
 > The lies we are concered with are the ones many politicians fully believe are 
 > true--ones
 > that have been passed to them by a staffer, a constituent, or a lobbyist. These 
 > 
 > lies, sometimes repeated without intent, are designed to distort the 
 > policy-making
 > process. Dig deep enough and you find an industry dedicated to the creation of 
 > those
 > lies and a group of people who profit from them. They are Lies, Incorporated."
 > At  this special event, guests will be treated to the behind-the-scenes  
 > production
 > of a live radio show to be broadcast on 91.7 FW KALW in San  Francisco and many 
 > 
 > other listening venues. We hope you'll RSVP for this free, unique author  event
