Danny Schechter the "News Dissector," a veteran journalist,
filmmaker, and participant in many social movements, began covering
Occupy Wall Street for Al Jazeera and other leading websites,
international TV News programs, and Progressive Radio Network
shows. Occupy collects his essays, blog reports, and movement
documents. As the filmmaker behind "In Debt We Trust" (2006) and
"Plunder: The Crime of Our Time" (2010), Danny Schechter has
specialized in exposing Wall Street crime in three books and many
reports. He says, "This is the movement we have been waiting for to
'fight the power.' Even as debt strangled millions, and
unemployment rose alongside foreclosures, economic issues only
remained fodder for boring pundits and self-styled experts. There
was no activist response. Until now." Schechter explains, "Occupy
Wall Street has a way of touching you personally with its gutsy
honesty and democratic spirit. Yet, I was not always uncritical. I
want it to succeed, but I'm also aware of its many contradictions
and internal conflicts." *Occupy* provides the News Dissector's
in-depth assessment of a global revolt in the making. DANNY
SCHECHTER is a writer, television producer, and independent
filmmaker who also speaks about media and financial issues. He is
the editor of Mediachannel1.org and blogs daily as the News
Dissector at NewsDissector.net. Schechter is the author of fourteen
books and has produced and directed more than thirty documentaries
and television specials. His blog was named the 2009 "Blog of the
Year" by the Hunter College Media Department of the City University
of New York.
