I can't remember the last time I watched
Charles Gibson or Diane Sawyer. And I've got a good memory.
I invite all who read this to join me and skip the ABC Specials on June 24th.
There is more
trustworthy journalism out there.
(Yes that is Dan Rather and he did say this in case you didn't bother to get this far:
"It is too soon to know or to say how the situation in Iran will turn
out, but there are lessons in this for our own country, for a
democratic system more fragile than we at times like to believe. One of
these lessons is the centrality of freedom of the press to the entire
enterprise of democratic government: You cannot have the latter without
the former.
And the other is the lesson that citizen journalism is a
way for the people to hold on to freedom of the press, even in times of
oppression. In a turn of phrase that seems to be cropping up
everywhere, the revolution may not be televised…but it very well could
be Twittered."Change happens.

I don't twitter (I'm not even sure what that is) but thank God that the truth will get out somehow, through brave people in terrible situations, to let the rest of the world know what's really going on. I pray for the safety of these individuals and I hope someone in power somewhere pays attention!
@dragonlady97478 - Good to see you! Twitter is a social networking site like xanga but much more immediate and posts are much shorter lending itself to a faster paced conversation much like texting only with all your friends in on the conversation.
Who would have thought that the next revolutions weapons would be cellphones w Twitter/Facebook?!
I stopped watching the propaganda press channels a long time ago. Complete waste of time.
