COURT ROOM CONVERSATIONS

"ATTORNEY: Are you sexually active? WITNESS: No, I just lie there.


ATTORNEY: What is your date of birth? WITNESS: July 18th. ATTORNEY: What year? WITNESS: Every year.


ATTORNEY: Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse? WITNESS: No. ATTORNEY: Did you check for blood pressure? WITNESS: No. ATTORNEY: Did you check for breathing? WITNESS: No. ATTORNEY: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy? WITNESS: No. ATTORNEY: How can you be so sure, Doctor? WITNESS: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar. ATTORNEY: But could the patient have still been alive, nevertheless? WITNESS: Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law."

I don't think they will stop doing this only because some newspaper nobody reads anyway has a problem with this... Nobody reads anyway...

New York Times: "The Bush administration’s Office of Cuba Broadcasting paid 10 journalists here to provide commentary on Radio and TV Martí, which transmit to Cuba government broadcasts critical of Fidel Castro, a spokesman for the office said Friday."

THE VIDEO PIRATE : WHEN MAX HEADROOM TOOK OVER "DR. WHO"

"During a broadcast of the Dr. Who episode 'Horror of Fang Rock' on WTTW Chicago Channel 11, on Sunday November 22nd, 1987, at around 11:15pm, a Video 'Pirate' wearing a Max Headroom mask broke into the signal and transmitted one of the weirdest, unauthorized things ever to hit the Chicago airwaves.

Earlier in the evening on the same day, during the Nine O'Clock News on Channel 9 (Yes, a completely different channel) the Max Headroom Pirate also broke in - although it was for a much shorter time and there was no audio."

FOLTERKNECHT WILL SCHMERZENSGELD

Wo werden eigentlich die deutschen Folterknechte ausgebildet? Schicken wie die zu den Amis oder besorgen wir das Training selbst? Müsste ja von Opa irgendwo noch das Handbuch rumliegen...

"Der berüchtigte BKA-Krimalhauptkomissar und Mann fürs Grobe Gerhard Lehmann, alias 'Sam', will von der linksradikalen JUNGEN WELT Schmerzensgeld haben. Er fühlt sich von der JUNGEN WELT - angeblich zu Unrecht - als der berüchtigte Folterknecht "Sam" enttarnt." Indymedia

AMERIKA VERFOLGT SEINEN LETZTEN UNABHÄNGIGEN JOURNALISTEN

Wer auch nur über die tatsächlichen Realitäten des Bush-Regimes berichtet, riskiert, von der US-Gestapo in einen orangenen Overall mit Kapuze über dem Gesicht gesteckt zu werden. Und Greg Palast ist kein rechter Waffenbruder des Präsidenten wie Michael Moore und auch kein wirrer Prediger wie Alex Jones. Greg Palast ("Armed Madhouse") war der Mann, der 2000 Jeb Bushs Florida-Schwindel aufdeckte und als einziger über die Manipulationen bei der Wahl 2004 berichtete. Der Journalist, der vielfach als bester investigativer Medienmann der USA gepriesen wurde, ist inzwischen nach England geflohen, berichtet von dort aber weiter über seine Heimat. Dort will man ihm nun den Prozeß machen weil er wohl das falsche Haus gefilmt hat, ein Gebäude der feinen Firma Exxon. Öl, Bush, Sie wissen schon.

Bush hat mit seiner Rede von letzter Woche endgültig klar gemacht, dass es sich bei seinen Hintermännern um Menschen mit hoher krimineller Energie handelt, die das Verschwinden oder den Tod eines Menschen, der der Bush-Junta Probleme bereitet, längst öffentlich mit in ihre Kalkulation einplanen.

Und die Medien schweigen.

GregPalast.com: "Yes, the rumor’s true. Greg Palast is facing a criminal complaint from the Department of Homeland Security stemming from his filming the Hurricane Katrina investigation for Link TV and Democracy Now. The film’s producer, Matt Pascarella, is also facing the legal wrath of Big Brother."

9/11 IN A MOVIE-MADE WORLD

Tom Engelhardt in The Nation: "For most Americans, even those like me who were living in Manhattan, 9/11 arrived on the television screen. This is why what leapt to mind--and instantaneously filled our papers and TV reporting--was previous screen life, the movies.

In the immediate aftermath of the attacks, the news was peppered with comments about, thoughts about and references to films. (...) What if the two hijacked planes, American Flight 11 and United 175, had plunged into those north and south towers at 8:46 and 9:03, killing all aboard, causing extensive damage and significant death tolls, but neither tower had come down? What if, as a Tribune columnist called it, photogenic "scenes of apocalypse" had not been produced? What if, despite two gaping holes and the smoke and flames pouring out of the towers, the imagery had been closer to that of 1993? What if there had been no giant cloud of destruction capable of bringing to mind the look of "the day after," no images of crumbling towers worthy of Independence Day?

We would surely have had blazing headlines, but would they have commonly had "war" or "infamy" in them, as if we had been attacked by another state? Would the last superpower have gone from "invincible" to "vulnerable" in a split second? Would our newspapers instantly have been writing "before" and "after" editorials, or insisting that this moment was the ultimate "test" of George W. Bush's until-then languishing presidency?"

  1. SEPTEMBER - DER KAMPF UM DIE WAHRHEIT

Die Amerikaner dürfen sich mal wieder übers TV-Programm erregen. Vorne weg Bill Clinton, der nicht möchte, dass er in einem "Dokudrama" als der Mann dasteht, der keine Zeit hatte, Osama zu jagen weil er zuviel mit seiner Praktikantin beschäftigt war. Aber auch sonst hat jeder die Wahrheit für sich selbst gebucht. Bis zum Wochenende tobt in den US-Blogs eine Art virtueller Bürgerkrieg in Sachen 11. September.

Calendarlive.com: "ABC's upcoming five-hour docudrama "The Path to 9/11" is quickly becoming a political cause célèbre.

The network has in recent days made changes to the film, set to air Sunday and Monday, after leading political figures, many of them Democrats, complained about bias and alleged inaccuracies. Meanwhile, a left-wing organization has launched a letter-writing campaign urging the network to "correct" or dump the miniseries, while conservative blogs have launched a vigorous defense."

In Deutschland darf man sich derweil an einer Berichterstattung freuen, die hauptsächlich aus aufgekochten Texten der letzten Jahre besteht. Vorne weg der "Spiegel" mit einer reißerischem Cover-Story plus beigelegter DVD und zusätzlich noch einem Special mit Sammelbildern und einem prima Poster von den brennenden Türmen. Nächste Woche dann wieder irgendwas mit Hitler, gell?

Guardian: "Is this Bush's secret bunker?

Mount Weather is a top-security underground installation an hour's drive from Washington DC. It has its own leaders, police, fire department - and laws. A cold war relic, it has been given a new lease of life since 9/11. And no one who's been inside has ever talked. "
