KABOOM! "DICTATORS 'R' US."
Want to see, hear and read how "shotgun journalism" is at work this week in Washington DC? The title line link, above, will take you to one of the most explosive articles to come out about how lobbying firms, of lawyers and public relations and advertising schills, work the government for just about anybody who will hire them. Americans of all political blends should be reading Ken Silverstein's blast that is being felt through the industry. The first shock waves of Ken's undercover investigation into how some of the most undemocratic and cruel dictatorships in the world curry favor with the Washington elite by hiring lobbyists can be heard at a recent National Public Radio "Talk of the Nation" radio show. Listen to how combative and ridiculous the lobbyist sounds defending his activities. Also, if you missed it, Bill Moyers interviewed Silverstein this weekend, fortunately it is archived for viewing or reading at Moyers' web site.
