On the newest edition of Media Roots Radio, Abby and Robbie Martin discuss how fear is used as a commodity by the media and political establishment to control society in the context of the Boston Bombings and murder in Woolwich, UK. They also talk about how the increased access to information online will make it harder to discern truths and distinguish reality in the future.

Media Roots Radio – NDAA, GOP Race, Information Age by Media Roots

MEDIA ROOTS – Abby & Robbie Martin discuss the age of information in the 21st century and philosophize what the ability to instantaneously connect with people worldwide has done to modern society; the subjectivity of “truth” as history becomes re-written with every passing generation; Alan Moore v. Frank Miller on Occupy Wall Street; The passing of the new National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that allows the indefinite detention of American citizens; the GOP race as a parody of itself with the candidates running and how voting for Ron Paul would be a fun social experiment if nothing else than to spoil the GOP primary.
