Summary: In his own words and very easy listen, good sound, powerful
Comment: This 2 CD Set is incredibly helpful and informative.
Chomsky sheds light on the corrupt system we have now - one that the rich and powerful have rigged in their favor. Explains the role of Big Media and the abuse of their power. YOU deserve to hear what he has to say.

These CDs (regular CDs not a CDROMs) have a total of 112 minutes of great talk with questions from the audience that you would ask! (How do they pull the wool over our eyes - Chomsky explains!)

This is very digestible, the easiest to understand and most straightforward Noam Chomsky statements I have ever heard or read in any format. A very warm approach and very accessible, listen to Chomsky talk about the daring depravity of our times - quoting James Madison. He points out examples from various times in U.S. history, there is much to learn with his insight on these CDs.

Chomsky exposes the arrogance, hypocrisy and intentional acts of those that run our political system and how they use their power to benefit themselves while hurting the little guy.

You may identify with him ( he explains what he had to do to fit in at school ) or his children ( who, as he reveals, were too independent and couldn't fit in ). Chomsky is very modest about the "this and that" I think. He really has accomplished
so much with his books, this CD set makes it so easy to absorb and think about these issues: Media what it does and how, the rich and powerful and the strings they pull, government's role in serving the will of the power players.

Chomsky's research is incredible, the facts he brings forward are not highlighted by our current media system. A startling fact is that beyond the problem of what is called Corporate Welfare there is the rip off of the American taxpayers that the rich get away with.

Great examples about lying, how it is performed in society with examples of children's behavior, very well explained. Labor's struggle and very interesting facts about 1850's labor press - the average workers thoughts and plea for justice. If you work for a living you will find this to be so motivating! ( Thanks to Chomsky for making me aware of this - I MUST READ THESE NEWSPAPERS (early labor's newspapers) HE MENTIONS! - there is so much to learn from these CDs.

Chomsky reconnects us to a proud American past that rejected the sales pitch in 1850's: "gain wealth forgetting all but self". The struggle for our democratic rights is on going - these CDs will probable get you motivated to effect positive change.

Rating: 5
Summary: The best Chomsky Lecture I've heard so far.
Comment: Speaking a length to a sympathetic audience at Harvard, the real Noam lets his hair down and gives qualifications and background for many of his statements that we are used to hearing. Lot's of references as well. It's a relaxed conversational tone; if your car has a cd player this will put you in a great mood on your way to work.
