Frequent guests include Herb Schiller, Brian Winston, Tuli Kupferberg, Noam Chomsky, Amy Goodman, and Joel Kovel. In addition to the U.S. media, Paper Tiger's programs cover the topics of women's rights, U.S. elections, the Iraq War and the Gulf War, the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, the World Trade Organization, the prison industrial complex, and gentrification.
