Subject: Bill Moyers on " Trading Democracy " -- Tonight

: Dear EmailNation Subscriber,

:

: Rare is the evening when turning on the TV could represent the best way to

: study up on a vital issue -- especially so complex an issue as the damage

: done to workers, the environment and democracy by the North American Free

: Trade Agreement.

:

: But tonight is different. Author and commentator Bill Moyers, whose rare,

: documentary-style reports are the closest thing to serious investigative

: reporting on broadcast television these days, will examine the way in

: which NAFTA restrictions on barriers to trade are being used by

: multinational corporations to overturn environmental protections enacted

: by governments in the US, Canada and Mexico.

:

: For more on tonight's program, read the latest installment of
