​Fracking in Everglades, grenades in playpens, half of Miami Gardens stopped & frisked

Abby Martin on egregious cases of police abuse in recent days. Then the oil and gas boom that’s attracting energy companies to the Florida Everglades with activist Karen Dwyer of the Stonecrab Alliance. Corporate media called out for the sensationalized coverage of freed US soldier Bowe Bergdahl, turning the story into partisan wedge while avoiding stories such as the Supreme Court rejecting journalist James Risen’s appeal to not be forced to testify against a source and the NSA’s data-mining of photos from social media. Finally, economist and University of Massachusetts Professor Richard Wolff discusses the future stability of the European Union and the political divisions and economic strain that have characterized the region for the last six years.
