Inside Out is dedicated to the bloggersthe independent sleuths who are after the truth, not a pat on the head from the White House; who have a passion for change, not "a vested interest in keeping things pretty much the way they are;" who serve the people, not the powerful. Much of the information and insight upon which Inside Out is based was developed by bloggers and other independents; it's fitting, therefore, that the Inside Out book tour thank them for what they do. So I'm proud to announce that my Bay Area, Los Angeles, DC, and New York City events are not just book signings, but also fundraisers for AlterNet, Firedoglake, GRITtv, and Truthout, three superb sources of independent political news and opinion. To find out more, read on.

I'm thrilled to do this event with Truthout, a terrific source of investigative journalism. Local independent bookseller The Mystery Bookstore will be on hand to sell books, and I'll match each copy sold at the event or ordered through the store beforehand with a five dollar donation to Truthout. If you can't make the event, just call The Mystery Bookstore at 310-209-0415 or email orders@mystery-bookstore.com. Either way, your purchase will support a great independent bookseller and great independent journalism.

This is another event dedicated to supporting the independents! For every copy of Inside Out sold at the event or ordered from Kepler's by phone or through their website beforehand, I'll donate five dollars to AlterNet, a San Francisco-based independent news and opinion magazine. If you value your local independent bookstore, you should shop there. And if you value independent journalists, you have to support them, too. This event is a great opportunity to do both.

Another fundraiser for independent journalism! The awesome Jane Hamsher, founder of Firedoglake and cofounder with Glenn Greenwald of Accountability Now, will be here to introduce me, and I'll donate five dollars for every copy of Inside Out sold at the event to Firedoglake. And if you're around on July 3, tune in to Firedoglake Book Salon at 5:00 pm Eastern time to chat with me and host Jeffrey Kaye about just how much of Inside Out's depiction of torture, black sites, ghost detainees, and those missing CIA interrogation videos is fact, not fiction.

Again, another opportunity to support a great independent bookseller and great independent journalism.
