PRESS RELEASE - 18 February 2003 - For Immediate Release CBS AFFILIATE INVESTIGATES LIBERTY DOLLAR
KEYE TV, the CBS News Affiliate in Austin Texas, aired their special investigative video report on Thursday, 6 February 2003. The video is now available by web-accessible archive. To test the acceptance of The Liberty Dollar, KEYE chose three businesses at random. An Austin area Redemption Center was asked to offer the new currency at each business while being video taped. All three businesses accepted, even though they had not heard of The Liberty Dollar. Later, one merchant claimed he wanted to exchange his Liberty Dollars for Federal Reserve Notes, but he has never responded to offers to do so. The score stands: three for three. The month long investigation also revealed that: * The Liberty Dollar is legal, just as the US Treasury, Secret Service, and the Federal Reserve have acknowledged. * The $10 Silver Liberty is worth $10 in commerce as promoted by the non-profit, educational organization that distributes the new gold and silver currency. * Many people, even if they have never seen or heard of The Liberty Dollar, readily accept it in payment for their goods and services, even though banks still won't take them. Their attitude? "Who cares? I got silver!" The three minute video Special went on to explain that The Liberty Dollar is supported by 1500 Redemption Centers nationwide and can redeemed at most of the 26 Redemption Centers in Austin. There is now over $3 million Liberty Dollars in circulation. KEYE TV placed the news video in their web site archives. To view it, go to: http://keyetv.com/news/investigates/index.shtml and then select the report "$10 Liberty Coin." The video special also provided the web site for the Liberty Dollar www.LibertyDollar.org, which explains why many people are supporting the use of gold and silver as money, just like our Founding Fathers specified in the US Constitution.
