He was later interviewed by Myles Power about that change of mind. He tells the story of what...

    The Museum of Curiosity

    An odd concept for a radio programme, but it works quite well. Get a comedian, a scientist, and someone who has done something interesting, to bring concept that interests them to "the museum of curiosity", which means let them talk about i for several minutes. This week there was a comic...

    Merged 10th anniversary 9/11 documentaries/ TV

    As the 10th anniversary will soon be upon us I thought it might be useful to have a thread where we could note down any new documentaries/ TV shows which might be coming up (or any re-runs which people might find interesting, I guess). For anyone in the UK, the BBC have done a new "Conspiracy...

    Matt Taibbi vs. Jon Gold plus Taibbi on WTC7

    Hi, I don't post much on this forum anymore but I do check in on occasion, mainly to find material for my 9-11 video blog . Matt Taibbi, one of my favorite MSM journalists, who has written hilariously on the TM, had a online exchange recently with Jon Gold (whom I admit I detest). The mini...

    Thanks, but we Knew that

    BBC director admits BBC's "massive bias to the left". (Obscure Monty Python Reference about IQ tests) I wonder if we'll get other confessions from other networks, like an AA meeting: -"My name is ABC and I'm a liberal." -"Hi, ABC! I'm Newsweek. When I was a liberal, I came up with the...

    Has anyone heard anymore about the airing of the BBC's upcoming special on 7 World Trade Center? The last I saw the show was due to air June 16th (today), yet i've seen no mention of it in the T.V. guide, nor in the papers. Does anyone have an update i'm missing? Ta!

    BBC & Advertising

    Right, the BBC is banned from advertising commercial products, for instance coca cola, because it gets its revenue from the British Television Licence scheme. Yet, commercial music (a market worth billions of pounds), which is for sale in record shops up and down the country, gets advertised...

    BBC Conspiracy Files: WTC7

    One problem with the BBC Conspiracy Files program is that it tried to take on all 9/11 theories: there wasn't time, and it was all a little rushed. Good news, though, because apparently there's a special on WTC7 coming out this summer: Apparently Richard Gage and Steve Jones will appear. If...
