It’s been all about Obama this week and that may reveal something about the way the news is or isn’t covered in the United States. There were, however, a lot of big stories. Swine flu stokes right wing anti-immigration rhetoric. The elite consensus continues to argue that we need to move on when it comes to torture. And Timothy Geithner gets uncovered by the NYT.

Daphne Eviatar, Legal Correspondent for The Washington Independent, Mark Ames journalist and founder of the eXile, now the Exiled Online, and Kate Clinton look at the media coverage of the past week.

And The Progressive Magazine turns 100. In an age of print media decline that is a feat worth celebrating. Founded by Senator Robert M. La Follette in 1909, the magazine has championed the public interest for years and features the voices of Barbara Ehrenreich, Howard Zinn and others. Today we speak to the magazine’s editor, Matthew Rothschild and comedian and activist Kate Clinton.

Finally, this week's Got Docs looks at the rise and fall of the anti-war movement. Shutdown: The Rise and Fall of Direct Action to Stop the War explores the early opposition to the Iraq war and why it did not continue.
