RT has given me opportunities I will be eternally thankful for and hosting Breaking the Set has been the best and most invaluable experience of my life. I never imagined the kind of support it would generate, proving how many people are hungry for raw truth and systemic change.
Throughout the course of the show, I’m most proud of the stories we’ve done on the road – Pine Ridge, Detroit, Gulf Coast, Guantanamo Bay and soon to be released Cuba. As such, after almost three years of reporting from the studio I’ve decided to focus on investigative field reporting.
Please note I’m not stopping or going anywhere. If I can’t find a platform to host my show vision with the same editorial freedom, I will turn to crowdsourcing. And until I establish my next venture I’ll be writing daily, podcasting, producing video shorts and doing talks around the world.
Please follow me on facebook, youtube, twitter and my website Media Roots to stay tuned.
I’m excited to put all my heart into the last two weeks of the most hard hitting show on TV and celebrate a great run, all of which wouldn’t have been possible without you.
Much love and appreciation to everyone for supporting me and my future endeavors.
Never Stop Breaking the Set.
Abby
Abby, I am stunned. I absolutely loved your Breaking the Set program, I will miss you. But I am so happy you’re staying in the truth-telling business. Always, in Solidarity, Lawrence.
Meanwhile, You’re ALWAYS your own girl. Don’t waste anything in my name, I’ll not be responsible for the wastes.
Breaking The Set has been my favorite news program for the past 3 years. Abby you’ll be missed. I’ll be following Media Roots in the meantime and I hope you’ll have another show in the near future.
Breaking the Set smashed through our collective conciousness. It was perfect and exactly what we needed after enduring over a decade of mindnumbing MSM propaganda.
So “Fair Winds and Following Seas”!
I am an activist in Seattle, Washington interested in pushing back against federal overreach that overturns centuries of freedoms and violates practically every international law that has ever been written. I highly admire the ground breaking work of reporters like Ben Swann, Abby Martin, Chris Hedges, Tangerine Bolen, Amber Lyon, Naomi Wolf and others. Really bummed to hear that Abby Martin is leaving Russia Times (RT). I hope she is able to come back with even stronger and more powerful presentations because it is extremely difficult to find shows like “Breaking the Set” that are willing to cover difficult topics like waterboarding, torture and war crimes.
