Wikileaks To Expose Wall Street Next

Wikileaks Goes Wall Street

 

Andy Greenberg’s got the news…

Assange:

“It will give a true and representative insight into how banks behave at the executive level in a way that will stimulate investigations and reforms, I presume,” he said, adding: “For this, there’s only one similar example. It’s like the Enron emails.”

Dr. Laura To Stay On the Airwaves

(NY)– Dr. Laura Schlessinger will stay on the airwaves on satellite radio, inking a deal with Sirius/XM for a multi-year contract.

The program will begin January 3, 2010-three days after the date Mrs. Schlessinger vowed to leave her terrestrial radio show because she claimed she couldn’t exercise her First Amendment rights.

Dr. Schlessinger is a long-time radio/television therapist and author who’s been advising her listeners in various venues since 1979. Often the subject of controversies,  she once marketed a line of bobblehead dolls that featured her voicing different phrases including: “I am the proud mother of an American Solider” Her marriage and sex advice and infamous personality have made her a pop-culture celebrity for decades.

That son, Derck Schlessinger was serving in Afghanistan in 2007 when he was investigated by the U.S. Army for posting lurid and potentially illegal activities on his MySpace page. The Salt Lake Tribune covered the story but the link is now gone. Cached copies of the article revealed this passage:

The MySpace page, publicly available until Friday when it disappeared from the Internet, included cartoon depictions of rape, murder, torture and child molestation; photographs of soldiers with guns in their mouths; a photograph of a bound and blindfolded detainee captioned “My Sweet Little Habib”; accounts of illicit drug use; and a blog entry headlined by a series of obscenities and racial epithets.

The deal is thought to be multi-year but no financial terms have been revealed. The Associated Press first ran this story on Friday, November 26 but are now telling their partners that the story was not intended for publication.

A native of Brooklyn, Schlessinger will continue to do her show based out of Los Angeles.

After 9 years of the Patriot Act and Fisa We Should be Grateful That Somebody Actually Started a 4th Amendment Conversation in This Country

The Fourth Amendment, With Friends Like These

That corporate thugs will not seek to exploit for their own ends . . . so do we just shut up and take it? do we refrain from criticizing food safety regulations because it would open the door for attacks on government workers and the obama administration? do we not aggressively criticize the wars in iraq and afghanistan because they can be construed as attacks on our military and, again, the obama administration? do we publicly discredit those who, on principle, criticize food safety, war policy, and yes, airline passenger inspections, because their voices are being co-opted? it seems to me that the koch brothers would love to see the principled voices delegitimized, so that the left disengages and the tea party crowd can completely turn the discussion to their purposes, like their desire to institute racial profiling

After 9 years of the patriot act and fisa, we should be grateful that SOMEBODY actually started a 4th amendment conversation in this country . . . but the nation threw the tyner baby out with the tea party bath water, and when Greenwald and Scahill came to his defense, you piled on . . . so now progressives will be wary of supporting any scrutiny of the tsa and its violations of our civil rights . . . but the tea partiers won’t back off until they have milked this one for all it is worth . . . once again, they will be the loudest voices
