Amy Goodman Stopped At Border

Talk about whatever you'd like, just not whatever we don't like...
Posted by Matthew Good on November 26, 2009

They held Amy Goodman at the border for over an hour yesterday while rummaging through her things and questioning her regarding what she was going to be speaking about at her engagement at the Vancouver Public Library last night. Goodman, who hadn’t prepared a written presentation, was set to address the usual issues during her talk – Afghanistan, healthcare, the economic crisis, and the importance of independent media. Instead, the main thing that authorities wanted to know was whether she intended to talk about the upcoming Winter Olympics.

Sieg Heil, Vancouver.
