#DORTHYDAY vs #OPUSDEI
One of these DAYS is not like the other. In fact it's the direct opposite.
#BILLMOYERS
I personally worked for the #PaulAllenGroup "Experience Music Project" - #JimiHendrix museum in 1997, 1998, 1999 as a media systems consultant and media analyst.
@peterpomerantsev.bsky.social - the body of work by #NeilPostman and #MarshallMcLuhan is essential, as is #BillMoyers 1980's #PussyRiot
"American journalist and media critic Ben Bagdikian once offered this enduring reminder to those in the press: "Never forget that your obligation is to the people."

https://BillMoyers.com/content/joseph-campbell-myths-live-part-one/ BILL MOYERS: We seem to worship celebrities today, not heroes. JOSEPH CAMPBELL: Yes, and that’s too bad. A questionnaire was once sent around one of the high schools in Brooklyn which asked, “What would you like to be?” Two thirds of the students responded, “A celebrity.” They had no notion of having to give of themselves in order to achieve something. BILL MOYERS: Just to be known. CAMPBELL: Just to be known, to have fame—name and fame. It’s too bad. BILL MOYERS: But does a society need heroes? CAMPBELL: Yes, I think so. BILL MOYERS: Why? CAMPBELL: Because it has to have constellating images to pull together all these tendencies to separation, to pull them together into some intention. BILL MOYERS: To follow some path. CAMPBELL: I think so. The nation has to have an intention somehow to operate as a single power.

In light of Esptein's possible connection to Iran-Contra, I went looking for old documentaries on the subject and found this:

Get ready to read and fight back.” #BillMoyers who inspired @levernews.com
And - fundamentally - there is no such thing as #freetrade. The term is a #framing hoax. Classic

Excellent article by @monikab.bsky.social of @motherjones.com about esteemed journalist Bill Moyers, who had a lot to say about the intersection of corporate greed and politics and the danger to democracy. This is my favorite excerpt. #democracy #4July #independenceday #billmoyers
Bill Moyers, the legendary PBS journalist and White House press secretary to Lyndon B. Johnson, died last week at age 91. His obituaries talked about his incredible life — born to a dirt farmer in Oklahoma, ordained a Baptist minister, present on Air Force One after the Kennedy assassination […]
And he helped get the Russian collusion reports documented and laid out for all to see. Brilliant interviewer. Missed so much. RIP.

Bill Moyers #BillMoyers lived to age 91, today we know. June 2025 we know.
Yes, the #Captain Cried, we know, Love can not move a bullshit mountain. Love does not defeat hate.
#BillMoyers "Myths are stories of our search through the ages for truth, for meaning, for significance. We all need to tell our story and to understand our story. We all need to understand death and to cope with death"

#BillMoyers: "And the ritual has lost its force. The ritual that once conveyed an inner reality is now merely form. And that’s true in the rituals of society + in the personal rituals of marriage + religion."

One more remembrance of Bill Moyers, this time in the form a Fresh Air episode, which has the great advantage of including extensive interviews with Moyers and his wonderful eastern Texas accent - very much worth a listen!

It's... a thing to find out #BillMoyers has passed.
For both #Boomers and #GenX Moyers was an American icon of politics and news. Most of my generation discovered him through his interviews with #JosephCampbell in the late 80s. And then he helped us see the world.
Goodnight, Bill; travel well.
