People often speak of the need for a "third party" in national politics. I'd settle for having a second party in the country! The Repulican/Democrat, left/right ruse has been going on forever and Alex Jones is working diligently to expose the con game. He is deserving of a forum outside the limited audience of shortwave radio to do so. Mack Let's have a brief intelligence (or in the case of a Jones, non-intelligence) test. Show me anywhere in my previous post where I suggested "censoring" Jones. My main regret, which may require some degree of reading comprehension to follow, is that Noorey is not up to the task of exposing Jones' absurd fallacies for what they are. I'm guessing you aren't either. I used to enjoy "The Power Hour" with Joyce Riley and Dave Von Kliest. Then right after 9/11, they seemed to go off the deep end. I mean, its probably legitimate to question whether the US was somehow involved in the terrorist attacks. I personally believe that to be an absurd position, but by all means, lets study the FACTS, not the theories, and let the chips fall where they may. But Good Lord, they just go on and on and on about it until you want to call them up and scream at them "Will you PLEASE just give it a rest??" I actually stopped listening to them for about a six month stretch, then one morning I decided to tune in to see if they had put their crackpot 9/11 theories behind them. Within the first segment of the show, I discovered that they had not. They seem like nice enough folks,though, and I get the impression that their concern for Gulf War vets is genuine and laudable. But the only reason I find to listen to their program is that they usually have some very informative guests. The rest of the program - from Dave's corny music, lame jokes, and horrible impressions; and Joyce's contant "ooooh"ing and forced chuckling at Dave's moronic antics, to their bratty show-ending signature "We-Will-Not-STOP!!" - is juat a tedious strain on my nerves.

I've heard Art Bell was doing a alot of the black helicopter/government conspiracy stories before the Oklahoma City bombing. So, Alex Jones isn't totally out of character for the show. I think the host of Coast to Coast must be credulous for the show to work. It's the host's job to get the guest to share his special knowledge. It won't take the skill of an Art Bell to get Alex Jones talking. It's the Coast to Coast listener's job to seperate reality from nonsense and Alex Jones has plenty to offer. Frank Dresser |

A paltry three hours of alternative views out of the tens of thousands of hours the "mainstream" political pundits receive from the media isn't enough. No, I agree it should be more. Alex should have 4 hours with Snorey to make a fool of himself. I for one am looking forward to taping this show for my playback the next day. Should be a real hoot if you ask me! The short-wave videotape salesman of whackjob conspiracy theories to trailer park dwelling white trash....meets the moderator of the Face on Mars, tinfoil-hat wearing, UFoologists and star trek geeks who can stay up late cause they are all unemployable kooks. WHAT A NIGHT ON AM RADIO THIS WILL BE ! woo-hoooo! People often speak of the need for a "third party" in national politics. I'd settle for having a second party in the country! Sure...2nd/3rd party...enough suckers fell for that line of ultra virgin monkeyshi+ in 2000 when Ralph Nader was on the ballot and the idiot voters in Florida frigged us up the proverbial wazoo for the next 4 years with a GW Bush Presidency. Smooth move Ex-Lax! The Republican/Democrat, left/right ruse has been going on forever and Alex Jones is working diligently to expose the con game. He is deserving of a forum outside the limited audience of short-wave radio to do so. OK we'll give him one night to make a complete ass out of himself on mainstream late night radio. After that however, he goes straight back to shortwave "Paytriot Acres Trailer Park" out on the other side of town to placate the losers who listen to his right wing short-wave crapola with a beer in one hand and a part of their anatomy in the other... PFHBLTTT!! Mack PLONK! |

Your supposition that it is George Norry's responsibility to "expose" Jones indicates a lack of understanding regarding the genre of the show, it's not CNN's Crossfire or NBC's Hardball. Also, the audience can call in and engage Jones directly if they so desire. If you were intellectually honest you would admit that you would relish the opportunity to censor Alex Jones. Your assumption that the listeners aren't able to determine the validity of what Jones says, what is true or not true, also betrays an arrogance all too common amongst people such as yourself. Mack |

Mack Let's see if I'm too "arrogant" to follow your line of reasoning. After admitting that I listen to Jones on SW, I express concern (regret, if you want) that Jones is getting three hours on Coast to Coast because I question Noorey's ability to appropriately question Jones on some of his political fantasies. This, in your mind, equates to advocating censoring Jones, which I did not. When asked directly where I advocating censoring him, you say it's "implied." In other words, I didn't say it, but we'll pretend that wishing Jones would appear in a different forum with a better interviewer equates to calling for censorship (i.e., taking him off the air). Having put words in my mouth, and trying to pass that off as "implied," you now suggest that *I'm* intellectually dishonest and jump back on the censorship horse. So let's resolve that once and for all--I'd like nothing better than to see Jones get as much personal coverage as possible by seasoned interviewers who don't have Noorey's penchant for tossing softballs. Noorey is a decent guy with a good show within it's realm, but wouldn't it be great to hear Jones explaining the "Secrets of the Bohemian Grove" to Mike Wallace? It also strikes me as rather strange that you consider it "arrogant" to desire that Jones be interviewed by someone with sufficient knowledge of politics to put his "ideas" to the test, rather than someone whose idea of a credible source is Richard C. Hoagland. Still, you don't have to be arrogant to recognize that for anyone who regards Jones as source of wisdom on current events, an informed, politically astute interviewer probably is the last thing you'd want. |

I think you'd be surprised at how well Alex does in that setting. I've heard him interviewed on Denver's KOA radio station by Rick Barber (one of the best unknown radio interviwers in the business) and Alex was outstanding. He was scheduled to do one hour and the host kept asking him to stay for another hour and another. He ended up doing four hours and effectively backing all his assertions with mainstream media sources. Really quite an impressive performance by Jones. As for Mike Wallace, yes I'm sure you would love to see that, as would every other foe of Jone's. Wallace and 60 Minutes tape anywhere from 3-6 hours of interview with their victim and then edit it down to fit a 15 minute segment. Cutting and splicing to make their target look like a complete fool and them like geniuses. The oldest trick in the book and the reason 60 minutes won't do live interviews. And this mercifully brings to a close this thread, for me anyway. Best wishes. Mack |

But - as Alex "Drooling" Jones has explained - all the mass media is leftwing, communist, socialistic, fascistic new world order and can't be trusted. And, as you wrote, " . . . and effectively backing all his assertions with mainstream media sources." So The Drooler is "backing all his assertions" with "mainstream media sources" that can't be trusted? The strange little man who listened to The Drooler and then broke into the Bohemian Grove, armed and then went to sleep, is an absolutely perfect personification of The Drooler's "true believer" listeners.
