Last week, we recognized Citizen Radio, a people-funded political radio show with hosts who are not afraid to call out bullshit when they see it. Honorable mentions included Ketchup, the 22-year-old protester from Chicago interviewed by Chris Hedges, and pediatrician Dr. Margaret Flowers, who quit her practice to make an impact on health care as an activist.
