- JOHN STAUBER
- returns with BANANA REPUBLICANS . The 
bestselling author of Weapons of Mass Deception now lay bare how the "
right-wing conspiracy", as represented by the national GOP and its 
functionaries in the media, lobbying establishment, and electoral system, is 
undermining dissent and squelching pluralistic politics in America. Sound 
familiar? BANANA REPUBLICANS reveals how the GOP leadership maintains its hold 
on power through systematic manipulation. Stauber and his writing partner 
Sheldon Rampton examine the legacy of the 2000 Florida ballot scandal; how a 
GOP echo chamber spreads its views through conservative media giants; how, even 
within its own environs, the national Republican Party has squelched 
disagreement and moderation; how GOP leaders have strong-armed traditional 
lobbying firms into exclusively hiring Republicans; and how corporate-funded 
think tanks and Republican Party pundits have equated disagreement with 
treason. "Rampton and Stauber are two of America's bravest, finest journalists. 
Their work is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand how greedy 
corporations and their allied in government now wield power in the United 
States." - Eric Schlosser. 7:30 PM at Telegraph Avenue
