NEW YORK (AP) -- An authorized book version of the Sept. 11 commission's report on the terrorist attacks will be published this summer by W.W. Norton & Company.

``Our report, ultimately, is for the American people. We want the public to read the Commission's findings, evaluate its recommendations, and engage in a dialogue on how to improve our nation's security,'' commission chairman Tom Kean, former New Jersey governor, said in a statement Thursday.

3. free money for norton??
"The book will come out in paperback with a first printing of 500,000 and suggested retail price of $10, although the commission will release a free online edition. Norton paid no advance and will pay no royalties."

Are they donating profits? They should ....

6. Not interested in it at all--it is hype and a whitewash.
Edited on Thu May-20-04 04:35 PM by Marianne
It is phoney like everything else that comes from the Republican dominated committees, meetings etc.

There will be, and there cannot be no truth at all in any of it. Bush went and testified with Cheney as the Bobsey twins- and there is nothing on record of what they said or how they an swered questions.

What is that? How can they have the nerve to publish something as cheap as this farce? Bush and Cheney controlled the whole thing.

That's Washington for you. The only way we may get truth is if someone out of the Washington beltway, is appointed an independant investigator.

Unitl then we will get nothing but fear on the part of one faction--fear that they will be shunned socially, and perhaps punished economically, and not invited to any more Washington cocktail parties, and lies and bullying on the part of the others.

7. I'll file it next to my copy of the Warren Report
but if things get too lean, I might have to use it for toilet paper.

11. This generation's Warren Report
But there is bound to be a thing or two they forget to whitewash, so it could be worth the money and time.
