New Bill Moyers TV Series

There's a tiny patch of fertile ground in the vast wasteland that is TV. Its name is Bill Moyers. Tonight (9PM in most places in the US) Moyers hosts a three part series, Moyers on America.

The first part (tonight) is on congress and money. The second (October 11) is on the environment, religion . . . and money. The third (October 18) is on the Internet . . . . . . . . . and . . . . . . . . you guessed it, money.

From one page of the Moyers on America Web site:
In 2005, lobbyists in the United States spent $2.3 billion-up from $1.5 billion just five years earlier-on behalf of their clients. But what exactly are clients buying? . . . A direct pipeline to power means a much better chance that when push comes to shove, the chips will fall in your favor.

I'll be watching this!

But will it expose or justify what is a corruption of democracy? I hope Moyers has the goods.
