Harper's commends Max Blumenthal, a Nation Institute Fellow on his investigative work of GOP V-P candidate Sarah Palin.
"Over the past several years, Blumenthal’s work has focused on fringe groups on the right. He has excelled in covering political activism among evangelicals. His technique is simple: he confronts the subjects and lets them speak for themselves. His videos are generally under fifteen minutes and are somewhat haphazard, but Blumenthal invariably captures images and language that go unreported in the mainstream media–which prefers to allow religious-right figures to sell their snake oil unreported and off camera."
"The materials Blumenthal harvested on his trip have had a real impact on the campaign… The footage that Blumenthal secured and published allows an extraordinary glimpse into Palin’s inner sanctum."
Great profile of high-impact, investigative reporting with support of the progressive media!
