I use the Berkeley Advanced Media TV studio for weekly appearances on CNN and frequent appearances on the BBC, CBC, and Australian Broadcasting. The importance of the Berkeley Advanced Media Studios goes far beyond the branding of Berkeley in the public's mind. They're the primary vehicles by which this institution educates the public, beyond our classroom teaching and research papers. They're crucial means by which we speak truth to power. In this age of public confusion -- where facts, analysis, and logic are too often sacrificed to political or monetary ends -- this is more important than ever.
