Shhhhhhhhh. Don't tell anyone......but there are dirty little secrets in Alabama. If you know someone in Alabama, you might want to let them know that their media is controlled by people who are covering up lies.
This is from The Huffington Post:
......Now, let me tell you what has been going on. As 60 Minutes was putting its show together, the White House put pressure on CBS -- the parent company -- to kill the show. Over the last few days, as word got out that the 60 Minutes show would air tonight, Karl Rove's associates began planting defamatory stories about journalists working on this story (see example here) and attacking the whistle-blower who came forward, Dana Jill Simpson. If you recall, Ms. Simpson testified, under oath, to Congress about Karl Rove's involvement in politicizing the DOJ. What you may not know, however, is that her house mysteriously caught fire and she was run off the road in the weeks leading up to her testimony.....
.......Tonight was something truly unseen in US history. During the 60 Minutes broadcast and ONLY during the Don Siegelman portion -- the screen went black for Huntsville residents and Mobile residents. There are other reports of other locations, but I have not yet confirmed those.....
It appears that Karl Rove, the White House, and the Republican back room smear machine have not only sent an innocent man to prison, Don Siegelman, but their control of the media and the cover up is just plain sickening. It reminds you of the Soviet Union under Stalin and the Nazi propaganda machine.
What other things are being withheld from the good people in Alabama? If you have friends in Alabama, e-mail them a copy of the Huffington Post story and the 60 Minutes story. They'll thank you for it.
