I've wondered about all that too.  When George Seldes died (he wrote "Tell the Truth and Run") C-SPAN, that last bastion of media responsibility, did not mention one word about him.  I don't think that was an accident.  I don't think that even Brian Lamb wants to have anything to do with real investigative reporting.  It appears that the press has joined the other maggots in decimating the carcass that is all that is left of the "public's right to know."  Prudy www.ctrl.org DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
