Chris Hedges Talks About Being Fired From The Real News Network
Hedges also acknowledges his supporters in his message/warning about the rich and wealthy controlling media:
I cannot answer you all individually, but each message, each new subscription, means I can go on.
I write and broadcast for you. I see myself in you. I refuse to dumb down anything to reach a wider audience. I do not try to be entertaining. I assume, like me, you love books and the world of ideas, the nuances and complexities that make up the human condition. I assume you care about the truth. I assume you seek to create a world that is just, a world where our primary concern is for the vulnerable and the oppressed, a world where exploitation, including of the planet and animals, is a sin. I assume you refuse to march to the cant of the crowd. I assume you are willing to sacrifice for what is right, even at the cost of your comfort and career.
Bless you all.
