I was in Boston this past week with my dad who is fighting against the Big C, We watched the endless Doo Wop fundraiser on one PBS Station and the great film “WINGED MIGRATION “ on WGBH which ran it as part of a funraising drive which was shameless and unstoppable. I loved the birds.

We couldn’t watch local news again after every station spent endless time on chronicling the efforts to two women in New England who saved a giant Lobster, now named Andre by dispatching him to the New England Aquarium.

Was pained to see the funerals of those young people in Newark. But who the story have received all the publicity if they weren’t college students. The Crime in that city has a long and troubled history. I was pleased to have been part of a discussion on the 40th anniversary of the Newark Rebellion that aired this weekend on CSPAN. Watch for it. They may rebroadcast the panel on the amazing book NO CAUSE FOR INDICTMENT by Ron Parambo (Melville House Publishing).

Rare moment of truth. Did you see it. GWB is asked if he would like to say a few words in French to the TV cameras covering Sarkosy’s visit to the Bush Palace in Maine.

He responds by saying no, adding he can barely speak English. Ha Ha.

Stay tuned for more on the news not in the news. Share your comments with me at dissector@mediachannel.org

"Curtailment of free speech is rationalized on grounds that a more compelling American tradition forbids criticism of the government when the nation is at war...Nothing can be more destructive of our fundamental democratic traditions than the vicious effort to silence dissenters."
