- onyxcoltrane, on 07/27/2008, -0/+9Two reporters who were key in breaking the Iron-Contra story are:
1. Seymour Hersh, the venerable reporter at The New Yorker who more recently has led the way on reporting on the rush to war with Iran and the Abu Ghraib scandal.
2. Robert Parry, who now edits a small news site: http://consortiumnews.com/ - inactive, on 07/27/2008, -0/+8In 1947 it was the National Security Act to fight Communism. Today it is Homeland Security and the "Patriot" Act to fight Terrorism. The War Machine must be continuously fed.
- stationwagon, on 07/27/2008, -0/+8I still have this program on VHS tape. I taped tons of PBS programs back then. Moyers had the best programs with any political content. (I also taped the Joseph Campbell "Power Of Myth" interviews.) NO ONE was doing this kind of stuff then, except Frontline in a few cases.
Moyers was outstanding at this year's National Conference for Media Reform in Minneapolis. If you haven't yet, you've got to check this out:

Also you're awesome for posting that. - Hangly, on 07/28/2008, -0/+1I think you know the answer to that.
- Hangly, on 07/28/2008, -0/+1C'mon man, I was only fifteen. I thought Iran-Contra was just about some guy who traded arms for hostages.
Serves me right for not investigating I guess. - inactive, on 07/27/2008, -5/+2The secret government is always lying to us. This is the video they don't want you to see:
