Screw Loose Change On the Beeb!
I am scheduled to be interviewed on the BBC sometime this afternoon, I assume for later airing. I will put up more details as they become available.
Update: The segment will air on the BBC World Today program which is broadcast over many NPR stations. You can also listen here at 23:00 GMT, which I believe is 6:00 PM on the East Coast, with rebroadcasts at 10:00 PM and 1:00 AM. They had already interviewed the Loose Change boys (all three participated) and asked me a few questions. I have done quite a few radio interviews, but this was the first time I'd actually done one from a studio. Thanks to Bill Shedd and the rest of the folks at KJZZ and the BBC for setting this up!
Update: We may have to wait for the show to be archived at that link; I don't appear to be in the 23:00 GMT show that is up there as of now.
Update II: Others heard the stream of the show at this link. It will be on again at 10:00 Eastern, and eventually the archive will be up.
Update III: The show is now available in the archive under 23:00 GMT. The segment on Loose Change begins about 3/4 of the way through the show. I am very pleased with the results--the Loosers talk too fast and I came across as calm but confident. Shows you what good sound editing can do. ;)

Dude, do you know what UK time and BBC Radio station it is?
I'd imagine it's Radio 4, but I would love to catch this.
That's if it's live - if not, still would love to know some more details as they become available, as I'm sure we all would.
That's terrific! I'll have to check the website later on.
When I first read this post's heading, I thought it would be something to do with Robert Cottage, a former electoral candidate for the fringe far-right British National Party. Cottage just pleaded guilty to possessing chemical weapons; he believed there was going to be a civil war in Britain and he had to arm himself.
The BBC News At Ten report I just watched said he was obsessed with conspiracy theories, particularly concerning 9/11. I've been trying to find verification of this on the internet, but all the reports I'm reading just say he was interested in "conspiracy theories" without specifying what, exactly, he believed. I'm going to keep looking for 9/11 mentions as the trial continues. If this is true, it wouldn't be the first time 9/11 Denial has been mentioned as an inspiration for a potential terrorist (cf. Waheed Zaman).
So once again, congratulations to Pat!
Darn, Darn, Darn
My internet player cut out about 1 minute into the story. It wouldn't reconnect until now, and the story is over!
BG, you can do the listen again feature.
Just skip to the section you were at.

Thanks, Tom,
That worked.
You are correct, Pat, you did come off sounding better than the LC guys.
Did you hear an expanded interview with them, or did you only hear (before your interview) the part that was broadcast?
BG, I'm pretty sure that the Looser portion was exactly as I had heard it.
Pat said...
Ok, interesting.
Why didn't you refute the Pentagon no 757 contention?
Why didn't you bring up quote mining?
Burlingame (false idea that he had only be a pilot with (AA?) for one year.)
Did you focus on WTC collapse because you think it is the Controlled Demo the most powerful accusation that needs to be addressed head on?

Link to my podcast with the BBC interview to play.
In continuing the tradition of sliming those that you disagree with, which is the rule here at SLC Blog, I've managed to put in my own audio fidelity adjustments here.
Has there ever been a point in your life when people have actually LIKED you?

Geez, Bermas sounds like he is on meth throughout that whole thing.
Can I use your discount at the NWO store?
I could do with some T-Shirts and tazers.
I'm having a NWO-theme party.
A new independent commission? Who would sit on this commission? The conspiracy fruitloops?
They want a platform and taxpayer subsidies to air their kookey views. No way!
Pat had a great joke about NWO discount.
A new independent commission? Who would sit on this commission? The conspiracy fruitloops?
A very good point - to be perfectly honest, I don't think the conspiracy theory groups even want a new independent investigation.
What would happen if this new commission concluded that the conspiracy nuts were wrong all along? They wouldn't accept it - something went wrong in the investigation or somebody infiltrated the commission.
They don't want the truth - they want their version of events to be accepted. They don't want questions answering properly, they want the answers they've already cooked up.
It's like asking for a "new, balanced investigation to research evolution". It's an idiotic suggestion on it's face. You'd have to be seriously confused to even suggest something so silly.
The investigation around 9/11 was the most intensive and comprehensive investigation ever done. It involved 1000's of people who are a lot smarter than the toofer's or any of their ilk. So why do they not enlighten us as to what happened and why they think the released version is wrong. What's wrong about it? Where did these 1000's of people go wrong? What did they miss? Why does he not give a detailed counter explaination with facts and experts to back it up

BG, we covered some stuff that was edited out of the final tape; I know we talked about the size of the hole at the Pentagon, for example. The problem is that the Loosers can spout out ten pieces of misinformation in 20 seconds, but debunking might take a minute per piece.
The BBC is the world's worst "news" network, made up of anti-Americans, anti-Semites, and out-and-out Marxists who long to surrender to Islam.
To be "interviewed" by them is not what I would say was something to brag about. Heck, even British troops avoid listening to the BBC like the plague, and they have to pay for that shit.

Pat,
I thought you might have mentioned Pentagon stuff that the Beep bleeped.
I respect the effectiveness of the BBC operation not to try to have an honest debate. The more one gets into these pesky facts, the more some morons might get misinformed and believe the Loose Change crowd.
The broad smear is much more effective.
It's a hallmark to watch for when evaluating the honesty of media behavior.
Notice how SLC has in big bold letters on the top, "As Seen in Time!" "As Seen in Vanity Fair!"
Do you see that anywhere on our front page? Or at all, for that matter?
On the old LC site, there was one, ONE, quote on the front page at all times. And we constantly changed it from review to review.
These guys revel in the attention.
And from what I heard, they did terrible on BBC radio.

Yeah, what respectable publication would want to lend credence to your ludicrous anti-American conspiracy theories?
These guys revel in the attention.
"Buy our 'Investigate 9/11' T-shirts!"
Maybe the reason why the Loose Change site doesn't have quotes about their media coverage on the top is because "As seen in Hustler!" really isn't very impressive.
