VIDEO & my email to John Lofton of Mooney Times RE: 1986 Crossfire w/Zappa
Watch video here: http://www.crooksandliars.com/2006/01/10.html#a6651

Hello Mr. Lofton

I just watched an interview that you did on CNNs "Crossfire" program with Frank Zappa.
Don't you find it interesting that Frank said the biggest danger America was facing is a fascist theocracy? I never realized what an intelligent person Mr. Zappa was.

I thought you were very rude in with your cheap attacks on him. Quite disgraceful. In memory and honor of Frank; who obviously bested you in that encounter to the point of your own distraction, I would like to tell you to fuck off! I hope that won't drive you to any anarchistic behaviour.

sincerely
John

1. Zappa has always been one of my idols. Since the days of "Brown
Shoes Don't Make It".

No one ever got the best of Zappa in an argument. Many tried, none succeeded.
