Senator Arlen Specter, will host Philadelphia's talk radio powerhouse Michael Smerconish (The Big Talker 1210 AM WPHT) and former Oklahoma City Investigative Reporter Jayna Davis as they discuss whether there is a connection between the events of September 11 and the Oklahoma City bombing. Print and television media are invited to attend the broadcast as Senator Specter is presented with the evidence Jayna Davis has collected in a seven year investigation.
WHAT: Live Radio Broadcast w/ invitation to print and radio reporters
WHEN: 4:00 P.M., Thursday, October 10th, 2002 (Note: The full broadcast will occur from 3:00 to 6:00 pm. Senator Specter will be featured from 4:00 to 5:00 pm.)
WHERE: 711 Hart Senate Office Building, Washington, D.C.
Mr. Smerconish is the host of The Big Talker 1210 AM WPHT, Philadelphia's talk radio leader.
Ms. Davis first became involved in the investigation while working as an investigative reporter for KFOR in Oklahoma City. Davis covered the FBI's international manhunt for the perpetrators of the bombing, and the infamous John Doe #2. On June 7, 1995, KFOR-TV broadcast its first story in which Timothy McVeigh was identified as drinking with a former Iraqi soldier in an Oklahoma City tavern.
It's not a bad idea, and had occurred to me.
Well, well, well.....anyone else catch this little tidbit?
I put on the foil, and it went away....
for now.
This very under reported aspect of the story receives little attention. Not only did the change in ownership result in Jayna looking for a new job, the new management claimed "ownership" to practically all of Jayna's research materials on the Middle Eastern connection. This despite the new ownership has never once to my knowledge demonstrated any intention of sharing information about the Muddle Eastern connection to the OKC bombing with the public.

"President Bush's request for authority to use force against Iraq drew solid support Thursday in both the House and Senate. The Senate voted 75-25 to end delaying tactics and open the way for final passage and the House overwhelmingly defeated efforts to weaken it.
In the Senate, 28 Democrats joined 47 Republicans in voting to draw debate to a close. The key vote came after the Senate's top Democrat, Majority Leader Tom Daschle of South Dakota, told colleagues, "I believe it is important for America to speak with one voice."
The Senate vote was procedural, but both sides viewed it as a key test vote. It choked off delaying tactics by a few Democratic opponents and made it all but certain that the Senate would pass the measure.
Only two Republicans voted against bringing debate to a close: Lincoln Chaffee of Rhode Island and Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania."
BEGALA: Howard, let me ask you about another comment that Chief Moose made. It was about the endless parade of analysts who have been second guessing and projecting and kind of prognosticating. And as somebody who does that in politics, I'm not about to attack that. I think that is very useful, of course, to criticize the government at every turn through the media.
But at the same time, the media convicted Richard Jewel falsely of the Atlanta Olympic bombing. They falsely said that the Oklahoma City bombing was done by Middle Eastern terrorists. I mean, doesn't the media get it wrong a lot of the time? "
Nothing like emphasizing a point, huh, from the fans of President Clinton.
