The Michelle Obama tapes to be aired any day/time from now: API and Fox News Network (USA) in a final agreement on the airing days/time. Posted by africanpress on October 29, 2008
A final agreement has been reached between African Press International (API) and Fox News Network (USA) on the dates to air the Michelle Obama tape arising from a discussion Mrs Obama had with the API two weeks ago. The show will take place any day/time from now, with a 15 minutes alert on when it is to take place. Other programmes will be interrupted. This is a precaution taken to avoid interference from any quarter.
In the agreement, Fox News Network will broadcast 39 minutes of the 54 minutes long tape. The whole tape cannot be aired unedited due to security reasons and especially due to the explosive political temperature in the country because of the Presidential elections that is just around the corner, November 4th.
The tape will be aired in two portions by two separate units in the Network. API’s representative will appear live in one of the shows.
The parties have agreed that the information to be released to the public on the agreement will not include the naming of the units at Fox News Network that will air the tapes in order to avoid outside pressure and influence of any kind before the show has taken place. Nondisclosure of the name of the shows that will air the tapes has become necessary due to pressure from groups interested to block the release of the contents to the public.
Due to a huge interest in the tapes shown by some private individuals, groups belonging to some political camp(s) and persons connected to a section of an intelligence network, it has been decided that the 54 minutes long unedited tape is to be kept outside the United States in safe custody of one of API’s Lawyers based in Ontario, Canada.
The day and time schedules of the broadcast will only be announced 15 minutes before the Show begins in order to avoid attempts to block the Show from airing the tapes.
Any pressure from any outside forces that may want to know the exact day and time schedule of the Show before-hand or any other details in the agreement will get no answers to their requests either from API or Fox News Network.
The decision to have the above information public was a difficult one due to the sensitivity of the case and huge interest against, and for, the release of the contents of the tape for public consumption.

Not the photo I was thinking of, but a good one.
I can't believe any PR department would let that out.
Let’s move to trillions. Have you been reading this dumb ass site? Another day, another excuse. This is the Nigerian Email Fraud. You know why conservatism is in trouble? Cause people believe this idiocy. I tell ya what. You really wanna make a bet on this one? Let’s trade emails, get an independent intermediary like a bank, and I will put 1 million dollars in that account, as will you, and if they produce a valid Michelle Obama tape before the election that 1 million is yours.
This stuff is a crock and is what is killing conservatism in this country. Reagan would have never stood for this utter raving stupidity.
Before you do that, maybe you should read about some very complicated issues regarding Kenya and Rwanda, and their infighting tribesmen, which Chief Editor Korir has been involved with!
It is long before they ever talked about Michelle Obama's rantings!!
If one understands the complications in Africa's shady politics and corruption, I think we ought to be nominated for a Nobel Prize!!!
I have no difficulty in understanding why Mr. Korir is in Norway and NOT in Kenya facing Odinga. I visited Kenya many years ago, stayed three days and had a wonderful time!!!
I doubt that I would feel comfortable to do the same visit there today???
