In this weeks episode, President Rafael Correa of Ecuador discusses with Julian whether it's always the case of good media vs corrupt government, and examines his country's relationship with the United States. Discussion opens with the circumstances surrounding the attempted coup de tat in Ecuador in 2010, during which the president was taken hostage. From there this weeks interview moves on to the key relationships between media, money and the interests of the United states that are at play in Ecuador. Following the coup attempt, Correa embarked on a furious and controversial counter offensive on Ecuador's media. He attributes the media's influence over the events of 2010 to the vested interests of corporate power and its control of Ecuador's media, now explosively claiming corporate owners of the media "disguised as journalists, are trying to do politics, to destabilise our governments so that no change takes place in our region, for fear of losing the power they have always flaunted".

The same goes for Valerie Jarrett, the slum lord extraordinaire in then-Senator Obama's district. While championing "social justice" with Obama, and living in the lap of luxury on the taxpayers' dime, the conditions at Chicago's Grove Parc Plaza, the government subsidized housing managed by Jarrett's Habitat Co. (she was the CEO from 2001-2008), were appalling: rampant mice, roaches, broken windows. Looking at the conditions, listening to the tenants talk to reporters in 2008, makes one cringe. But more so makes one wonder if the mainstream media can go fifty years into the past to dig up some non-existent Romney bullying incident, why couldn't they have driven a few miles from Senator Obama's campaign headquarters to see the abhorrent conditions at Grove Parc Plaza? Of course we know it was because the mainstream media protected Obama then, and protects him to this day. Slum lords that foist these types of conditions on their tenants generally go to jail. But apparently in the United States, they become chief advisors to the President. Valerie Jarrett should be served with a warrant today and jailed. Then we can get to the business of <b>...</b> Author: Kris Zane Duration: 4:01
