From Peter Heckert& S. V. Johnson
When I was still a BoD member for Krivit's NET
organization his "sponser(s)", at least during the
time when I was still a BoD, seemed pretty independently-
minded to me. I could be wrong, but I doubt Krivit's
sponsorship [I meant sponser(s)] would have changed all
that much since my departure.
If the sponsors are not known he cannot claim independence.
There may still be some miscommunication between us. Let me try to
clarify my POV.
Krivit most certainly knows who his financial sponsors are. How could
he not. NET is his organization and his organization alone. To the
best of my knowledge the sponsors Krivit revealed to his NET BoD (when
I was still a BoD member) did not strike me as having any kind ties to
any particular energy theory. I don't suspect things have changed all
that much since my departure. For that matter, the nature of the
business these sponsors performed had nothing to do with the
production of energy.
This is the same as with major newspapers (Times, Washington Post, Die
Welt, Frankfurter Allgemeine, and many others)
We all know, they are independent, and they are, but we all know they
prefer one political mainstream over another and we know which.
We know the investors and owners.
With Krivit however, we know nothing.
So he is not an independent Journalist. We dont know, what he wants
aside from publishing and writing books, and so he might prefer those
that give him the best raw material for (fake or true) stories.
Best,
Peter
