Dear
friends,
Concerned about the power of the Koch brothers? Check out this podcast.
It’s the inside story of the documentary Citizen Koch, which was supposed to air on PBS—before executives yanked the film out of fear of upsetting the billionaire Koch brothers. (By the way: it turned out David Koch had donated $23 million to PBS.)
As one might expect from a couple of documentary producers who helped Michael Moore make Fahrenheit 9/11, the directors of Citizen Koch team didn’t take this lying down. The story of how it all happened, and what happened next, is an inspiration in a dark time.
With hope,
Ben Wikler, with the Avaaz team
