Atomic Cover-Up: The Hidden Story Behind the U.S. Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki |
| Uploaded by democracynow on 9 Aug 2011 DemocracyNow.org - As radiation readings in Japan reach their highest levels since the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant meltdowns, we look at the beginning of the atomic age. Today is the 66th anniversary of the U.S. atomic bombing of Nagasaki, which killed some 75,000 people and left another 75,000 seriously wounded. It came just three days after the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, killing around 80,000 people and injuring some 70,000. By official Japanese estimates, nearly 300,000 people died from the bombings, including those who lost their lives in the ensuing months and years from related injuries and illnesses. Other researchers estimate a much higher death toll. Democracy Now! airs an account of the 1945 atomic bombing of Nagasaki by the pilots who flew the B-29 bomber that dropped that bomb, and feature an interview with the son of Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist George Weller, who was the first reporter to enter Nagasaki. He later summarized his experience with military censors who ordered his story killed, saying, "They won." Democracy Now! interviews Greg Mitchell, co-author of "Hiroshima in America: A Half Century of Denial," with Robert Jay Lifton. His latest book is "Atomic Cover-Up: Two U.S. Soldiers, Hiroshima & Nagasaki and The Greatest Movie Never Made." Watch Part 2 of 2: http://youtu.be/A9Y4C90tjvA | |

Barbara Ehrenreich talking about the U.S. job crisis & wealth gap |
| Uploaded by democracynow on 8 Aug 2011 DemocracyNow.org - Standard & Poor's announced Friday it has downgraded the U.S. credit rating for the first time in history. The move by S&P, one of three leading credit rating agencies, came just days after Congress approved a $2.1 trillion deficit-reduction plan. "In some ways that is in another world from most Americans and their day to day struggles. What is it going to mean if you have no job now?" says award-winning author Barbara Ehrenreich on Democacy Now! She has just published the tenth anniversary edition of her book, "Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America." In the book, Ehrenreich tells the story of life in low-wage America, and tries to earn a living working as a waitress, hotel maid, nursing home aide and Wal-Mart associate. Ten years later, she compares the current situation of low-income U.S. workers to "third world levels of poverty." Watch Part 2 of 3: http://youtu.be/ThPNWG9KWJc | |

London Ruins: Aerial video of riot 'warzone' cleanup, homes destroyed |
| Uploaded by RussiaToday on 9 Aug 2011 Shopkeepers and local residents were trying to clean up many of London's ravaged neighbourhoods on Tuesday morning after a wave of violence and looting raged across the city overnight, as authorities struggled to contain the country's worst unrest since race riots set the capital ablaze in the 1980s. In London, groups of young people rampaged for a third straight night, setting buildings, vehicles and garbage dumps alight, looting stores and pelting police officers with bottles and fireworks. Sony Corp. said a major blaze had broken out at its distribution centre near Enfield, north London. | |

| Patty Lovera of Food & Water Watch on Turkey Recall, Saving Food Regulation from Budget Cuts | |
| Uploaded by democracynow on 5 Aug 2011 DemocracyNow.org - In one of the largest meat recalls in U.S. history, this week the food giant Cargill ordered the recall of 36 million pounds of ground turkey. The recall came after at least one person died from Salmonella, and another 76 people fell ill from turkey products traced to Cargill's processing plant in Springdale, Arkansas. According to the federal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the Salmonella outbreak involves a strain of the bacteria known as Salmonella Heidelberg, which is resistant to many commonly prescribed antibiotics. Although the recall was announced this week, the outbreak began in March. More than 3,000 people die a year from food poisoning in the United States and millions more get sick. Food safety advocates say this latest outbreak shows how budget cuts have hampered the ability of federal and state health agencies to effectively protect public health. Democracy Now! interviews Patty Lovera, assistant director of the food safety group, Food & Water Watch. "As Congress comes back this fall and they're going to be in budget cutting mode and nothing is really sacred, we need to be telling them that food safety Inspections, figuring out these food system problems, are not acceptable places to cut savings," says Lovera. | |
