{"product_id":"2940014892636","title":"Media Workers for Social Change","description":"\u003cbr\u003eDuring the first ten years of the 21st Century, media control in the United States was concentrated in the hands of a few corporate giants. There was no left or liberal movement that could counter this and disseminate messages to a mass audience except in a few instances. This led progressive media workers to seek independent means to put across their messages. They set about finding new and different ways  of organization, sometimes as non-profits, sometimes as collectives, and sometimes acting independently. These are the stories of thirteen San Francisco Bay Area media workers for social change, chosen by the author for varied backgrounds, areas of work, and places on the progressive political spectrum. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProfiled in the book are: Larry Bensky, Elizabeth Gonzalez, JR Valrey, Tracy Rosenberg, Geoffrey King, Greg Landau, Maureen Gosling, Josh Wolf, Bill Hackwell, Favianna Rodriguez, Bradley Stuart, and Jose Manuel Martinez.","brand":"Bay Sound Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47147762581744,"sku":"2940014892636","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940014892636_p0.jpg?v=1763616572","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940014892636","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
