In an email sent hours before his death in a fiery single-car crash in Los Angeles Tuesday, award-winning journalist Michael Hastings reportedly wrote that he was working on a “big story” and was going to “go off the radar for a bit.”

The subject of the email was “FBI investigation re: NSA,” KTLA reports.

A copy of the email, sent on Monday, was reportedly provided to KTLA by Staff Sgt. Joseph Biggs, who was a recipient of the email.

“Hey [redacted copy], the Feds are interviewing my ‘close friends and associates.’ Perhaps if authorities arrive ‘BuzzFeed GQ’, er HQ, may be wise to immediately request legal counsel before any conversations or interviews about our news-gathering practices or related journalism issues,” Hastings wrote in the email.

This story is starting to give me the creeps. I never thought America would come to this. Of course, I also never thought this country would embrace a communist police state either.

I never thought America would come to this. Of course, I also never thought this country would embrace a communist police state either.

Back in 2002 when in Tucson, Arizona (of all places) I saw an American college kid on the bus wearing a red T-shirt that read: CCCP with a hammer and sickle. I wanted to go over and tell him that he wouldn't be wearing such a shirt in Miami.

We can only assume there were many more like him NATIONWIDE and this "kid" would probably be 30 years old today, voting and teaching his kids about how good Communism is.

Most likely he was driving too fast, lost control, smashed into a tree. But a simple and logical explanation wont’ feed the conspiracy beast.

It is creepy ... Breitbart 2.0

[TADSLOS]

He’s certainly off the radar now.

He got the Breitbart treatment.

Something is always up when the liberal media whines Conspiracy Theory. Always

O....M....G, we have become a banana republic!

This story is starting to give me the creeps.

Me too. I do not recognize my country anymore.

He certainly had to be going at a very high speed for the fuel to ignite as it did. Remember Princess Di. Her vehicle, a Mercedes, was going about 80 m.p.h. when it hit a bridge column. She, the driver, and her paramour were all killed, the ultimate cause of their deaths being they did not wear seat belts. Her 28 year old body guard, the only real adult in the vehicle, survived because he was wearing a seat belt, even though he was in the "suicide seat." There was no fire, in spite of the high speed impact. Here, even though the vehicle was a Mercedes, one of the world's safest automobiles, there was a massive conflagration on impact. Makes one wonder, especially in light of Fast and Furious.

Did Glen Beck promise to have a big story last week? Whatever became of it?

There are a lot of interesting people that have died in the last 5 years, including the entire Seal team 6.

It’s hard to believe every one of them died happenstance.
