1. I think Dan will be working a lot behind the scenes to verify his
story about the chimp! CNN's Woodruff was just quoting him as saying he was a hard news reporter and he intended to continue in that role. Sounds like he has a few scores to settle.

4. I will miss Dan. He is the only news show I watch except
for the News Hour. We and he know that he was correct on the TANG matter, but somewhere along the line someone wimped out and it was not Dan. I hope he follows up.

9. this movie and it's eerily ironic to current events....
....and the state of the media....I SWEAR it would take a similar act to wake people up....sigh...but o'course they'd spin it into a *reality show* just like in the script....truth stranger than fiction once again! :scared:

3. A guy threw a TV set out the 3rd story window in my
Performance Art class years ago. It smashed on the sidewalk in front of us. Reminded me of that.

12. "Greg Palast is God"
(a la "Clapton Is God"). Why can't that guy get his stories fucking published/covered in this country? The only time I ever saw him on TV in the past few years was on Aaron Brown's program ... pity.
