   Marc Cooper (The Nation) and the LA Weekly just ran a smear piece on Cynthia.

   Interestingly, there is one paragraph in this piece that is almost exactly like a hitpiece from Horowitz from the same event that didn't get as much play --

   Total smear piece. It had the feeling of Stockholm Syndrome, as it essentially defended the internal mechanisms of the Neocons, without being specific about it.

   I wrote a comment expressing my disgust with this garbage, I think I saw some other of your comments up there too. It looked to be about 99% negative perspectives on the author's integrity and opinions.

   Why isn't the massive support for 9/11 truth (and the truth in general) reflected by the media? It kind of makes you cynical about playing their game and contacting writers, publishers, etc. in order to get a little time for truth. It is worth it though, as always, every effort has some effect and can sometimes pay off big.

   It feels so natural to check out and stop trying, but that is what they have always counted on.
