CSPAN Needs to Air the Swift Boat Veteran Press Conference!
Personal Account ^ | May 4, 2004 | Interesting Times

Posted on 05/04/2004 9:25:25 AM PDT by The Shrew

Our own Interesting Times participated in the John O'Neill Swift Boat Veterans for Truth press conference today at the National Press Club. Interesting Times is the webmaster and driving force behind the Free Republic Network's sponsored website WinterSoldier.com and is heavily involved in collecting, collating and disseminating the information that the Swift Boat veteran's are discussing.

Interesting Times has just called me to say that the Press conference has gone extremely well. Dozens of news organizations were present as well as many Washington D.C. behind the scenes players. He reports that there is as yet no commitment from CSPAN to air the press conference in its entirety. He has asked me to run a thread asking freepers to contact CSPAN and politely ask them to air the press conference held today in its entirety.

"The quotes these guys give are damning. They are extremely credible. We must get this word out and not allow the mainstream media to report it in drips and drabs and heavily edited." Interesting Times said from his vantage point within the room at the National Press Club.

He reports that there is as yet no commitment from CSPAN to air the press conference in its entirety.

Yet they devoted a good part of yesterday's programming to the hate speech of Louis Farrakhan.

What's a ping?

And where is FOX? I expected to hear about this at least from, but nothing. I'm starting to wonder about those guys over at Fox. Brit Hume seems to be the only one with balls, but even he's not touching this press conference. Does anyone know if Rush is talking about it?
