This week on CounterSpin: Donald Trump says the press corps are the “enemy of the people.” The press corps, in turn, say Donald Trump is “presidential.” Where the people find themselves in this dance is unclear. We’ll talk about what media really looking out for the public interest might look like with author and FAIR associate Norman Solomon, national coordinator of RootsAction.org and executive director of the Institute for Public Accuracy.

Also on the show: It’s been a year since the murder of Berta Cáceres. Court documents leaked to the Guardian support the idea that the killing of the Honduran environmental, indigenous rights and feminist activist was planned by military intelligence specialists linked to Honduras’ US-trained special forces. Such “extrajudicial” killings in Honduras have spiked since the 2009 coup, in which the US played a key role—though that role is beyond obscured in press coverage that presents the US as the solution to violence in that country. We’ll talk about that with Beverly Bell of the group Other Worlds Are Possible.
