<p><p>Remember Vote for Change? Back in 2004, Pearl Jam teamed up with Bruce Springsteen, R.E.M., Death Cab for Cutie, The Dixie Chicks, and other musicians to promote voter registration in swing states all across the country. Well, directors Coan Nichols and Rick Charnoski followed Pearl Jam on their 8-city tour with a Super 8 camera, and they're <a href="http://pearljam.com/">releasing this incredible behind-the-scenes documentary now</a>, just in time for election day. </p><p>It's always thrilling to see artists who are outspoken about their political beliefs, especially when it's a band you're a fan of or an issue that's important to you. I had the pleasure to <a href="http://www.alternet.org/story/20067/the_battle_of_the_band/">sit down with Pearl Jam's Stone Gossard</a> as the band kicked off the Vote for Change tour in Reading, PA, and what Gossard had to say then about activism and the urgent need for bipartisanship seems just as pertinent today. So go to <a href="http://pearljam.com/news/index.php?what=News#283">http://pearljam.com/</a> and sign up for a house party to watch <em>Vote for Change?</em> on November 3. </p></p>

<p>Throughout the Bush administration media corporations have helped our government sell war. This mashup evidences just one tiny aspect of that thought control.</p>

<p><p>Copps is one of the good guys who has taken on right-wing propaganda on tv (one example I can think of is the odious Sinclair, where yes, I was the "progressive" pundit in 2004 against Armstrong Williams of White House payola fame). </p><p>As any of you know who have seen me on tv though, I did not behave like a Fox Democrat and thought it was important to give a different perspective to people around the country who were getting news from Sinclair and did not even know it (Sinclair owns local stations in a variety of media markets without viewers knowing this fact). </p><p>(h/t <a href="http://www.openleft.com/frontPage.do">Open Left</a>)</p></p>

<p><p>It is stuff like this that really pisses me off. <a href="http://www.savetheinternet.com/blog/2007/08/09/att-plays-gatekeeper-censors-pearl-jam/">No wonder AT&T is against a free Internet</a>. </p><p>Then they couldn't fruitlessly try and control what we think about the worst president.
