The Care and Feeding of Mainstream Media: Almost daily this
country wakes up to find out about another lie G. W. Bush
has told the country and the world, starting way back in November
2000 when he proclaimed "I won!", and continuing
all the way to this morning, when we found out the turkey
he so proudly served to the troops in Iraq was actually a
prop. Joining Associate Producer Christopher Sprinkle to talk
about this and the role of the media in these lies is Reese

Follow the Money: When we talk about Global Terrorism, what
do we really mean? What is its evolution? Who funds it? Who
profits from it? In a new book by Loretta Napoleoni, Modern
Jihad, the author answers these questions. In her well-researched
book, she shows not only how these so-called networks of terror
operate, but how there is an interdependency between them
and the West. She takes us from CIA Headquarters to some of
the key smuggling routes of the Far East, from the back rooms
of Wall Street to the Hawala exchanges in the Middle East.
Dennis dicusses the intricate and involved linkages with the
author.
