In this episode, we follow up on Keith Goetzman’s feature on media reform in the July/August issue of Utne Reader.

Host Leif Utne checks in with leading media reformers Josh Silver and Jeff Chester for a report from the front lines of the struggle for media democracy and Internet freedom. They explain what’s happening with federal media ownership rules, why the growth of Google may not be such a good thing, and the campaign to free the iPhone.

And senior editor Keith Goetzman reviews “Come the Storm,” the latest release by Eileen Rose on Wildflower Records. To hear a free track from “Come the Storm” check out the Utne Media Player, on the left side of our home page.
