John Perkins, author of the New York Times bestseller, “Confessions of an Economic Hit Man” says of ARMED MADHOUSE: “Gripping, provocative, inspiring… a modern Declaration of Independence, this book exposes the abuses of today’s global Empire and calls on us to take action. Palast challenges us to replace a system he describes as “un-American” with one that will create a sane, equitable, and sustainable world for our children.”

GREG PALAST
Live From The Armed Madhouse

Greg Palast, NY Times bestselling author and award-winning investigative journalist, has spent the last 30 years getting the goods on the corporate con men, political hucksters, and “free-trade” gurus who would auction off your children’s future to the lowest bidder.”Live from the Armed Madhouse,” his timely follow-up to Weapon of Mass Instruction, is Palast’s most provocative and caustically funny yet!Armed with over fifty classified documents, confidential memos, and secret plans liberated from the Pentagon, FBI, World Bank, and ExxonMobil, Palast cuts through the TV news baby-talk. It was Palast, for BBC TV, who first uncovered how Jeb Bush and Katherine Harris stole Election 2000. Harris calls him “twisted,” and here’s the new twist revealed in this CD: Palast tells you that Kerry won in 2004 and 2008 is already fixed. Palast’s reports have been exiled from America to British Broadcasting Corporation’s top current affairs show, Newsnight, and England’s Guardian newspapers. This speech was recorded in 2006 at the Fletcher Lounge, University of Tampa.Also included are 2 re-mixes of Palast’s words (also featuring George W. Bush & Jello Biafra, among others) by Funkspace (”Mr. Beale, Meet Mr. Palast”) and Zen Rock Garden (”Busted And Bloody”). You can grab the brand new paperback edition of his best-seller of the same name here. Spoken word and pointed, upbeat, political music never sounded so good together!

The Assassination of Hugo Chavez
“Madman” & “Dictator” or “Liberator” & “Hero”?
Why must they eliminate Hugo Chavez?

PICK UP THE COMBO OF OUR NEW DVD’S
For BBC Television’s Newsnight, gonzo journalist Greg Palast flew to Venezuela to get the inside information on the man the Bush Administration loves to hate: Hugo Chavez. Palast meets with the president the Bushmen call a madman, a dictator - and then finds the man who took Chavez hostage (Palast wears a hidden wire for that one).

Here, from the winner of the George Orwell Prize for Courage in Journalism, are the inside documents that tell you why Chavez must die.

Follow him from Venezuela to Ecuador where, from the oil-smeared Amazon, he shows you the inside documents from the International Monetary Fund that are plans for a financial coup d’etat - as originally reported for Amy Goodman’s Democracy Now!

Then Palast, the reporter who busted Jeb Bush for illegally purging Black voters in Florida, takes on the Theft of the Presidential Election - in Mexico. It’s “Florida Con Salsa” as Palast, “a cross between Sam Spade and Sherlock Holmes” (Jim Hightower) goes after the vote rustlers in his inimitable film noir style.

Based from Palast’s award winning expose for Harper’s Magazine and his New York Times bestsellers, The Best Democracy Money Can Buy and Armed Madhouse.

Captured in Venezuela by guerilla lensman Richard Rowley (”Fourth World War”) for BBC, Democracy Now! LinkTV and BigNoise films.

Includes three films plus bonus tracks from the Armed Madhouse audio book.

A production of the Palast Investigative Fund for high-risk journalism, with research supported by The Nation Institute/Puffin Foundation.
