C-Span One , LIVE, has Joseph Wilson and others, ...
on Media Coverage of Weapons of Mass Destruction. A retired CIA agent just said the press is "too damn nice to the Bush Cheney admin" and "Rumsfeld is such a liar that if his nose were like Pinnochio's, it would reach across the Potomac River all the way to the Capitol" (paraphrasing). Turn it on, it is good!

2. you don't need cable for C-Span if you have high-speed internet
you don't even need to be in the US, for that matter

9. Certainly! Don't miss it!
I was looking on www.c-span.org to see if they had it on video yet. As of an hour ago, it wasn't listed. It was held at the National Press Club,(www.npc.org) with a woman moderator (forgot her name) from Newseum. Margaret Carlson (yuck) from Time, Joseph Wilson, and Jon Wohlsthal(sp?) from the Carnegie Endowment for Peace, Non-proliferation Div.,, was excellent also.

7. the media didn't want anything to get in the way of their ratings coup
We know the media pushed the war for ratings and were not going to do anything that could stop the march to war.

10. Exactlly! Also, remember how they insisted it be voted on
before the election and how furious we were when the Dems fell in line with Bush, even after all of our phone calls, faxes, etc., begging them to wait until after the election? Well, we were right, again, weren't we?
