About me:
When Greg Palast, an investigator of corporate fraud and racketeering, turned his skills to journalism, he was quickly recognized as, ?The most important investigative reporter of our time? [Tribune Magazine] in Britain, where his first reports appeared on BBC television and in the Guardian newspapers. Author of the New York Times bestseller, The Best Democracy Money Can Buy, Palast is best known in his native USA as the journalist who, for the Observer (UK), broke the story of how Jeb Bush purged thousands of Black Florida citizens from voter rolls before the 2000 election, thereby handing the White House to his brother George. His reports on the theft of election 2004, the spike of the FBI investigations of the bin Ladens before September 11, the secret State Department documents planning the seizure of Iraq?s oil fields have won him a record six ?Project Censored? for reporting the news American media doesn?t want you to hear. ?The top investigative journalist in the United States is persona non grata in his own country?s media.? [Asia Times.] He returned to America to report for Harper?s Magazine.

thanks for the comment... HBO, that would kick so much ass man. American media is total garbage. I got your book around to quite a few people and most of them were astonished. 'you mean to tell me the government lies?' just another sad story of deception. I let my grandpa watch the best democracy money can buy and he cryed at the end. he was in the army for 20 years and it broke his heart to see that. he never liked bush or republicans anyways. your work is fantastic. ive been a fan since i was a jr in high school. I keep sending the word out. keep in touch man. Salem

Hey Greg. Thanks for the request! Glad to be connected here. Big fans of your wonderful work.

"The only dream worth having is to dream that you will live while you are alive, and die only when you are dead. To love, to be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and vulgar disparity of the life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget." - Arundhati Roy

As soon as I heard about what's going on in New Mexico, I thought about you and hoped to hear you on the radio. Thankfully Richard Green had you on last night, sadly, KTLK is so messed up and the program got cut off in mid sentence. Also,I suspect that Green is a little clueless- great guy- but clueless about somethings. Thanks for your great work Greg! Really appreciate you!

so there was this huge effort to get Al Gore to run for president and they have given up - now i realize that he cant run as a democrat now but i believe he could run as an independent - and thats just what we need - an strong indpendent with name recognition - someone who could lead a legitimate new third party - this nation has not had a viable third party in a long long time - its time - lets renew the effort to get Gore on the ballot and create plan(party) C for this nation - "The Integrity Now" party

Hey Greg we all love you here. Just one thing, you give more credibility to the BBC they they do to you, I'm sure you know how weak they are, but they can point to your lonely voice and say 'look, we're cool, we've even got some guys who tell the truth'. God bless you man, happy holidays Tim
