Hosted by award winning reporter Amy Goodman, “Democracy Now!” is one of the hottest national daily radio programs on the air today. Started as an election year show in 1996, “Democracy Now!” expanded into a hard-hitting investigative news magazine.

“Democracy Now!” provides the kind of news and information that is crucial to public participation in the political life of the country. With cutting edge reporting and challenging views, “Democracy Now!” aims to hold those in positions of power accountable for their decisions and to inspire grassroots action for social change.

“Democracy Now!” opens the airwaves to those remarkable voices and stories that have been traditionally excluded from the corporate media. The program features the ideas and voices of women, people of color, youth, immigrants, lesbians and gay men, environmentalists, the unemployed, seniors, refugees, and activists of all kinds, the people making the news, but who aren’t covered in the news.
