Jeffrey Chester - American Hero

Jeff Chester

He's been called the Paul Revere of the media revolution and the guardian of the last mile, and unless you're Big Media or their FCC cronies, you're lucky to have him on your side.

With Big Media fighting tooth and nail to consolidate its hold over the way we access information, Jeffrey Chester -- the founder and executive director of the Center for Digital Democracy (CDD) has made it his mission to see that they fail.

And with the War in Iraq raging and the Bush Administration continuing its assault on civil liberties, today, he says, his work is more important than ever.

Here at Common Sense, we believe that democracy is the politics of people and so, in each issue, we cast the spotlight on a person who is doing something special to make sure America stays on the course our founders laid out for us. This month, CSM salutes Jeffrey Chester, founder and executive director of the Center for Digital Democracy and author of the new book Digital Destiny: New Media and the Future of Democracy.
