UPCOMING PROGRAMS
ALL TIMES ARE EASTERN
Saturday November 9th, 2002
10:06:40 to 11 PM Eastern: " Fighting Back " with
Bill Sammon
Washington Times correspondent Sammon's inside account of the Bush
administration's reaction to 9-11 and the resultant war on terror, readers are
tendered a breathless, highly complimentary portrait of the president and an
overly simplistic moral tale about the great merit and unwavering moral vision
of his inner circle. What could be an extremely interesting if one-sided
account is often undercut by Sammon's penchant for editorializing (Bush was
"more directly affected than most Americans by the attacks
themselves"; Osama bin Laden "giggled" when speaking about the
attacks; and the president often "twinkles" when he speaks) and
novelizing (Bush "never thought he would be so relieved to see the White
House again. He scanned the magnificent curve of the South Portico...He gazed
at the Rose Garden"). Nor does Sammon seem to appreciate the irony of
quoting some of the president's less eloquent statements, such as: "The
role of a president is to seek great objectives for the country, big
goals."
11:06:40 to 12 AM Eastern : "SuperFoods"
with Jyl Steinback
Jyl Steinback is a personal trainer who tries to make everything she cooks
as healthy as possible. She explains how you can get the most energy out of
the foods you eat. By using substitutes she still is able to enjoy her
favorite foods without all the fat.
Example: When making chocolate cake, she uses applesauce, nonfat cream cheese, skim milk and nonfat vanilla yogurt and an egg substitute. To make Guacamole, she uses asparagus, green peas, tomatoes, salsa, onion powder, cilantro, nonfat mayo, lime juice, garlic powder, Tabasco sauce and ground red pepper and pepper to taste.
Saturday November 16th, 2002
10:06:40 to 11 PM Eastern : "Reagan's War"
with
Peter Schweizer
A meticulously researched and penetrating analysis of the
Cold War, and the man who ended it. Peter Schweizer delves into the origins of
Ronald Reagan’s vision of America, and documents his consistent, aggressive
belief in confronting the Soviet Union diplomatically, economically, and
militarily.
11:06:40 to 12 AM Eastern : "That's Not What We
Meant to Do"
with Steve Gillon
Gillon points out, conservatives often argue against government programs by
citing the law of unintended consequences, though he believes this approach to
be somewhat limiting: "At the heart of the problem of unintended
consequences in the United States is a paradox: Americans look to Washington for
solutions to complex problems, but they are reluctant to give government the
power it needs to address most issues." Later, he adds, "I would not
want readers to conclude from these examples that we must abandon our efforts to
identify social problems or suspend efforts to use government as a positive
force for social change."
Saturday November 23rd, 2002
10:06:40 to 12 AM Eastern: " First Hand Knowledge: How I Participated in the CIA-Mafia Murder of President John F. Kennedy " with Robert Morrow.
This two hour interview of the former CIA agent Robert Morrow reveals details of the extraordinary plan to murder the President of the United States. The astonishing story Robert Morrow tells is, uncensored and terrifying. He names the conspirators and explains the circumstances that caused the American intelligence community to conclude that President Kennedy was too soft on communism, a threat to the Mafia status quo and a betrayer of the Cuban Freedom Fighters.
According to Agent Morrow he participated in the assassination plot on direct orders from the head of CIA Covert Operations. According to Morrow he was a patriot who committed honorable treason-an educated, elite CIA operative dedicated to his country, who obeyed the official orders he received. He was also part of a deadly CIA network of killer agents and Mafia enforcers.Robert Morrow reveals his stunning "First Hand Knowledge" of:
* The direct orders from the CIA Covert Operation's Chief to the author to purchase and modify the three Mannlicher rifles used in the assassination of JFK.
* The truth behind JFK's cover-up of the October Missile Crisis and how it was a leading factor in his assassination.
* The alliance-between the CIA, the Mafia and the Cuban anti-Castro movement - provided funding and personnel for the assassination.
* J. Edgar Hoover's silent complicity with the Mafia and the CIA-sponsored Cuban assassination plot.
* The active participation of Carlos Marcello and other Mafia bosses in the assassination strategy.
* LBJ's personal ties to Organized Crime through his top White House aide.
* Vice President Richard Nixon's sanctioning and ordering of political assassinations as White House CIA liaison, including the secret Operation Forty plan to kill leftist Cuban leaders.

10:06:40 to 11 PM Eastern : "The Threatening Storm" with Ken Pollock
Kenneth M. Pollack, a leading expert on
Iraq, provides a masterly insider’s perspective on the crucial issues facing
the United States as it moves toward a new confrontation with Saddam Hussein.
For the past fifteen years, as an analyst on Iraq for the Central Intelligence
Agency and the National Security Coun-cil, Kenneth Pollack has studied Saddam as
closely as anyone else in the United States. In 1990, he was one of only three
CIA analysts to predict the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait. As the principal author of
the CIA’s history of Iraqi military strategy and operations during the Gulf
War, Pollack gained rare insight into the methods and workings of what he
believes to be the most brutal regime since Stalinist Russia.
Examining all sides of the debate and bringing a keen eye to the military and
geopolitical forces at work, Pollack ultimately comes to this controversial
conclusion: through our own mistakes, the perfidy of others, and Saddam’s
cunning, the United States is left with few good policy options regarding Iraq.
Increasingly, the option that makes the most sense is for the United States to
launch a full-scale invasion, eradicate Saddam’s weapons of mass destruction,
and rebuild Iraq as a prosperous and stable society—for the good of the United
States, the Iraqi people, and the entire region.
Pollack believed for many years that the United States could prevent Saddam from
threatening the stability of the Persian Gulf and the world through
containment—a combination of sanctions and limited military operations.
Pollack now explains why containment is no longer effective, and why other
policies intended to deter Saddam ultimately pose a greater risk than
confronting him now, before he gains possession of nuclear weapons and returns
to his stated goal of dominating the Gulf region.
11:06:40 to 12 AM Eastern : "Bias"
with Bernard Goderg
Think the media are
biased? CONSERVATIVES HAVE BEEN crying foul for years, but now a veteran CBS
reporter has come forward to expose how liberal bias pervades the mainstream
media. Even if you've suspected your nightly news is slanted to the left, it's
far worse than you think. Breaking ranks and naming names, Emmy Award-winning
broadcast journalist Bernard Goldberg reveals a corporate news culture in which
the close-mindedness is breathtaking, journalistic integrity has been pawned to
liberal opinion, and "entertainment" trumps hard news every time. In
his three decades at CBS, Goldberg repeatedly voiced his concerns to network
executives about the often one-sided nature of the news coverage. But no one
listened to his complaints-or if they did listen, they did nothing about the
problem. Finally, Goldberg had no choice but to blow the whistle on his own
industry, to break the code of silence that pervades the news business. Bias is
the result. As the author reveals, "liberal bias" doesn't mean simply
being hard on Republicans and easy on Democrats. Real media bias is the result
of how those in the media see the world-and their bias directly affects how we
all see the world.
Goldberg discusses: Saturday December 7th, 2002 10:06:40 to 11 PM Eastern: " Living Sanely in an Insane
World " with John Groom
Common sense discourse on everyday things and everyday living.
An interesting discussion about all those things that all of us do, think about,
daily. 11:06:40 to 12 AM Eastern : "Days of Infamy"
with John Costello
-How on issues ranging from homelessness to AIDS, reporters have simply
regurgitated the propaganda of pressure groups they favor, to the detriment of
honest reporting
-The Peter Jennings test for classifying politicians-and how all the networks do
it
-The network color bar-why so many "victims" on network news stories
are blond-haired, blue-eyed, and middle class
-How one high-level CBS News executive told Goldberg that of course the networks
tilt left-but in the next breath said he'd deny that statement if Goldberg ever
went public
-One of the biggest stories of our time-and why you probably didn't hear about
it on the evening news
-How political correctness in network newsrooms puts "sensitivity"
ahead of facts
-The real Dan Rather-a man who regards criticism of liberal bias as treason. If
you ever suspected the network news was shortchanging the truth, Goldberg will
not only prove you right, he'll give you a glimpse of just how it's done, and
how fairness, balance, and integrity have disappeared from network television.
Reveals the strategic errors, diplomatic bungling, and military cover-ups
that surrounded the failure of MacArthur, Roosevelt, and Churchill to avert the
bombing of Pearl Harbor.
