How the military analyst program controlled news coverage: in the Pentagon's own words

"We develop a core group from within our media analyst list of those that we can count on to carry our water. They become the key go to guys for the networks and it begins to weed out the less reliably friendly analysts by the networks themselves."
Glenn Greenwald

    A red haired wife and I eked out a survival.

    I could not afford marriage until I was 27. I feared being the equivalent of a spinster.

    It's a long story. Someone, a gentle Lady from a Mennonite church insisted on handing me a $10.00 bill.

    Each week that ten-bucks went a long way. Without generosity, it would have been much tougher. thanks.
