film synopsis
Fearless journalist Amy Goodman has spent three decades amplifying the voices mainstream media ignores. Steal This Story, Please! charts her extraordinary path—from war zones to the daily whirlwind of hosting Democracy Now!—as she challenges power with wit, courage, and chutzpah. Oscar®-nominated filmmakers Carl Deal and Tia Lessin craft a riveting portrait of a reporter who believes journalism should serve the public, not the powerful. Winner: Audience Award – Documentary, Mill Valley; Audience Award, SIFF DocFest; Audience Award, Woodstock.
