Yesterday more than a hundred activists, celebrities and other visitors crowded into the courtyard of Robert Greenwald’s Brave New Films in Culver City to hear political pundit and Huffington Post editor Arianna Huffington speak about politics and her new book “Right is Wrong.”

Politically activated media makers like Phil Donahue and Laurie David listened as Arianna described a major shift in politics whereby traditionally progressive ideas are fast becoming mainstream thinking. She minced no words in her description of John McCain’s Faustian bargain with the extreme right wing and the mainstream media’s ongoing journey away from principles of truth and integrity. You can see highlights from the talk in the clip, but to get the full story you’ll just have to buy her book.
