'Our Democracy is in Danger of Being Paralyzed'
Keynote Address to the National Conference on Media Reform By Bill Moyers

We are being buried alive in a sugary sand of meaningless complacency. All around people are saying "Don't cause a fuss. Play nice. Play the game. Make money. Be quiet. Enjoy our wealth." We need to let off some stink bombs and shake some shoulders. We need to wake everyone up before it's too late. Mr. Moyers is being polite, but serious. Soon, anyone on the side of human dignity and intelligence won't have the luxury of being polite and patient.
