You didn't?
Finally, BNN? 30 years in the business and I've never heard of Broadcast Network News. The only BNN I know is the Bulgarian News Network. Krep.... and bad krep. After 30 years covering cops and courts, I've been lied to by pros; criminals, lawyers, (pardon the redundancy), cops, etc. This is really light weight BS.
I did a Google search just now. The only thing I find is a 1997 article about the company.
So we are now depending on the word of the CEO of a company that does not exist.....
Now you claim you know the man personally and know what happened to his company, and what he is doing right now.
You didn't state at the offset that YOU KNEW WHO HE WAS, and WHAT HAPPENED TO BNN, and that you had little faith in his word due to....... whatever. Now did you?
You purposefully hid the truth, and you plain lied. WHY?
First, as I said before, I really do appreciate your responses, and there would not be much fun in FR if everyone had the same thoughts and there was no disagreement.
It is also a responsbility, here on FR, to conduct disagreements in a courteous manner.
My statement listed above was accusatory, and I find it unlikely that most posters, especially MindBender26, would lie on purpose. I believe that in trying to communicate his/her position that third part info with no supporting proof should not be taken seriously, this poster slowly revealed items about his knowledge of the situation, and may have been gathering the info he/she passed on.
So, Mindbender26, in the Spirit of the good of Free Republic, I take fault for calling you a liar. That is not a good way to encourage further discussions.
I have been in the same situations where my 'discoveries' and the way I was revealing information led others to call me a liar. I could see what they meant, but it was not my intention, and I am sure it wasn't Mindbender26's either.
I hope he/she accepts my apology for making such accusation publicly. I continued the discussion with this poster privately, and that is the place where one should sort out such problems. I appreciate this poster making the first step on that.
I don't like the idea of losing any valuable source of information and experience, whether that source supports my position, or not.
I assume that if there was a conspiracy in the government and Navy to conceal an accident, that it will be sealed for 20 years, and there is nothing we can do about it. That is likely why President Bush has not revealed anything, if this allegation is true.
