Amy Goodman and Chris Hedges discuss why it's best that the Occupy Wall Street movement has no leadership hierarchy.

Goodman and Hedges do a good job of articulating a response to the often heard mainstream media criticism of "lack of a clear agenda" and "leaderlessness". Of course, the mainstream media is itself a corporate mutation and is naturally antagonistic towards grassroots movements. They really don't want to "get the message".

That was a really interesting interview, and the guests made some good points about tho occupy movement. But I was surprised that both guests shared the same political views. It would have been more interesting to contrast different perspectives, instead of featuring the same position.
