My letter to the Newsweek WHORES trying to discredit Michael Moore
The article:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5335853/site/newsweek/


Dear Editors:

Every news magazine I have read is quick to discredit the premise of Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11" regarding Saudi familes that were allowed to leave the country by pointing to the fact Richard Clarke approved the flights after the FBI and CIA cleared those travelling. Michael Isikoff and Mark Hosenball are the latest to continue perpetrating this misdirection. Richard Clarke is a footnote in the story. I want to know why none of you are investigating who in the Bush administration bowed to Saudi influence to begin with to allow these flights to even take place? That is Michael Moore's premise, and for you all to point a finger at Clarke as if he is responsible without investigating who gave the order to begin with is exactly the kind of lazy journalism Michael Moore is taking aim at. Will any of you get down to the bottom of who in the Bush administration requested that these Saudi familes be given special treatment to leave the country, when it's possible some of them could have provided information regarding Bin Laden had they been detained without a "cursory" clearance by the FBI and CIA?

1. P.S. Everyone should be demanding the same thing from every news org
That continues to ignore investigating this important question.

2. Good Letter!
I posted my e-mail to Newsweek earlier but it didn't receive any replies. I was surprized because I would think the placement of the link under the "terror watch" caption would warrant some discussion here.
