: Hey Sam! Are you going to retract your wild accusations now that CNN

: just taken one more step toward extinction. I am hypothesizing, not accusing.
The attention that should
: be given to this incredible lack of journalistic integrity
You mean like the attention that should be given to the cover-up of news about how many Iraqis were actually killed during the Gulf War? How about the integrity of CIA agents who consistently falsified estimates of "enemy strength" during the period 1965-1968 to make the intelligence community higher-ups feel they could present a case to the Pentagon that "we were winning the war"? Journalistic integrity has been a slave to the media and political hierarchies since time immemorial.

I'm just guessing based on the data I have, just like everyone else.
: That is - a reactionary radical
And you're a fundie, Stu, whose "nature" is to avoid conflicts about REAL INFORMATION in order to create bickering and personality quarrels, because you're AFRAID that if we get into an argument about FACTS, you'll LOSE EVERY TIME.

Read Douglas Valentine's THE PHOENIX PROGRAM. Valentine corroborates from numerous sources that the CIA used to take "deserters" and other renegades in Vietnam, and blackmail them into performing tough intelligence collecting missions, and then when the missions were over, the "deserters" would be snuffed out by the CIA. Thus the CNN report looks like nothing unusual within the context Valentine's informants describe.
