Just got the hardback in an Amazon shipment along with Trippi’s book (already read it, but it’s a keeper so I bought it also) and House of Bush, House of Saud (fascinatingly terrifying). In starting Gillmor’s We The Media, I was thinking about what I wrote earlier about being almost “numbed” by the negative scenarios that I can envision in many areas of public life. Gillmor’s book is yet another, like Trippi’s book, that can be another breath of fresh air and hope in the future. It didn’t take too long for me to slide back into a gloomy mood since reading Trippi, (due to the fact that I was reading the various things being written about the Bush administration), and so now I am glad to get Gillmor’s book.
