Corbett Report Radio 186 - Politics and Language with Andrew Gavin Marshall

It is language, and it can be used as a political weapon even more effectively than outright oppression. Andrew Gavin Marshall of The People's Book Project joins us tonight to discuss his article, "Austerity, Adjustment, and Social Genocide: Political Language and the European Debt Crisis" and how the public can put up their mental defenses against linguistic manipulation by the would-be so-called political elite.
