CISPA: Worse than Patriot Act, Texas blast safety, Boston bombing & overlooked tragedies

Abby Martin talks to Michelle Richardson, legislative counsel with the ACLU, about the renewed push for CISPA and how its implications could be worse than the Patriot Act. Then Jacob Remes, Public Affairs and History professor at SUNY Empire State College, talks about the recent explosion at the West Fertilizer Company in Texas and the effects of disregarding workplace safety standards. Finally, an update on the Boston Bombings and a look at some of the most recent tragedies in Iraq and Yemen that have received virtually zero media attention.
