by Scott Horton | Apr 4, 2022 | The Scott Horton Show

Download Episode. Scott talks with Lyle Goldstein about the war in Ukraine.

Scott and Goldstein discuss a number of theories and takes they’ve been reading across the media landscape. Among the topics covered are the global dangers posed by reductions in Ukrainian farming, Washington’s alleged interest in supporting a long-term insurgency, and the intentional drought in Crimea— which Goldstein says is an often omitted reason behind the...

3/15/22 Kevin Gosztola on the Dangers Posed by the Prosecution of Assange

by Scott Horton | Mar 18, 2022 | The Scott Horton Show

Scott talks with journalist Kevin Gosztola about the most recent developments in the attempt to extradite Jullian Assange to the United States. Gosztola gives a background of the legal process so far. They then discuss just how blatantly political the effort to punish Assange is. There is no legal distinction between Wikileaks and the other publications that reported on these various leaks. But Assange is an outsider who has regularly and effectively embarrassed the U.S. government. And he is paying a severe and disproportionate price for that. At the end, Gosztola lays out why he predicts...
