DemocracyNow!

Democracy Now! produces a daily, global, independent news hour hosted by award-winning journalists Amy Goodman and Juan González. The reporting includes breaking daily news headlines and in-depth interviews with people on the front lines of the world’s most pressing issues. On Democracy Now!, you’ll hear a diversity of voices speaking for themselves, providing a unique and sometimes provocative perspective on global events.

Democracy Now! is broadcast daily across the United States and Canada as well as other countries around the world. The program is on Pacifica, NPR, community, college and satellite radio stations; on PBS, public, community and satellite TV; and viewed by millions of people online each day. Our headlines are broadcast in Spanish on radio stations across the U.S., Central and South America, and in Europe.

Democracy Now! launched in 1996, airing on nine radio stations. More than two decades later, they have grown to be one of the leading U.S.-based independent daily news broadcasts.

As an independent news program, Democracy Now! is audience-supported, which means that editorial independence is never compromised by those ensconced in positions of corporate or government control. Since its founding in 1996, Democracy Now! has held steadfast to a policy of not accepting government funding, corporate sponsorship, underwriting or advertising revenue.
