From my perspective, there's been a notable decline into mainstream liberalism over the years. Pilger used to be on her show pretty regularly as were people like Max Blumenthal. So they allowed a genuine range of opinion, unlike the msm, and still do to some more limited extent. But they've definitely shifted right, have supported some imperial wars and have adopted an editorial line in the headlines that is often despicable as with the Assange example. So whether or not she was always a liberal, the program used to be better and less compromised than it is now. Still occasionally some good things though. Several recent examples on Palestine and Bolivia: https://www.democracynow.org/2019/11/19/noura_erakat_israeli_settlements_trump_announcement https://www.democracynow.org/2019/11/11/evo_morales_bolivia_protests_military_coup https://www.democracynow.org/2019/11/19/bolivia_un_ambassador_sacha_llorenti_coup https://www.democracynow.org/2019/11/18/bolivia_cochabamba_massacre_anti_indigenous_violence |
