When I first talked about doing this with Rod, the publisher here, he asked if I was the "Marlboro Man" from the X-Files."I'm in enough trouble already, Dude," he burbled over his cocktail. "My FBI file is a mile long after publishing those Serbians! I don't need this!"
"Listen, " I said. "What frustrates me about you people in this magazine is that you come so close! You almost get it--- and then you always blow it with your left-wing claptrap!
"Just listen, dammit!
"What you keep missing is how it's all of a piece. It is global, you're right about that, but you don't even understand how far back it goes!
"That's why I've decided to help you."
So let's get this straight: IF you want to go into the real DIRT, the real perfidy, you had better start doing more research and digging a little bit deeper than the surface.
I know you have limited resources, so I thought I'd do a little of your homework for you.
You'll find links throughout this dispatch to start you looking in the right directions. But I don't intend to spell it all out for you. You call yourselves journalists, right? So start reporting on the Real Deal.

I'll give you an example. One thing that surprised me was that it took you so long to deal with the issue of our using the A10 Warthogs. If you had really been doing your job, and if your Yugoslavian reporters "on the ground" had done half their jobs, instead of whining about internationla law violations, you would have played this LARGE and EARLY.
On the plus-side, you did get to it, which is more than I can say for most of your peers in the so-called "alternative" press.
But why don't you understand about the bombing of the Chinese embassy? Where was the Dalai Lama this week? Whose embassies are ALSO being trashed by which Most Favored Nation? Do I have to feed you everything, G21?
Let's go somewhere else, shall we?
SALON Magazine, with Kenneth Starr out of the way, is now focusing on bashing Governor Jesse Ventura, of Minnesota. Your "ON DRUGS" columnist claims to like this guy. So why are you being silent about this? Why don't you bash back?
It's obvious to anyone with half-a-brain that SALON needs to try to bait Ventura into a real ---- instead of their lame excuses for a --- gaffe. They are gunning for him because he is not part of the Liberal Establishment, and is a definite threat to the likes of Al Gore and "Senator" Hillary Clinton. You're fast and loose with that eponym "Dollar Bill." Why not go on the real offensive, World's Magazine?
But you frustrate the hell out of me!
You have already put yourselves out on a limb with some of your coverage, so why not be THE BEST DAMNED LEFTIST PUBLICATION on the Web? Why half-step?
I look forward to what you'll do with this. And I'll be in touch. --CH
