| 12:30pm-3pm - Chomksy: "Distorted Morality: America's War on Terror?" Noam Chomsky--scholar, founder of the modern science of linguistics, philosopher, political and social analyst, author, and media critic--is shown in two fascinating, post 9/11 lectures, in which he presents the idea that the idea of a war on terror is a logical impossibility. The first lecture was given at Harvard University JFK School of Government. The second was held at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where Chomsky has been a professor for over forty years. DISTORTED MORALITY is a crucial document for anyone struggling for a stronger grasp of the post 9/11 world. - plus other assorted Chomsky video clips from the archives 3p-4pm - "Independent Media in the Time of War" Narrated by Amy Goodman, this documentary critiques the convergence of mainstream news with the military and discusses the importance of independent media and media activism.
