Coast-to-Coast AM
9-11 Roundtable
(part one)

by Victor Thorn

 
 

On Thursday, June 16, 2005, George Noory is going to host a roundtable on his Clear Channel-controlled syndicated Coast-to-Coast AM radio show. The official theme will be a discussion of “whether Muslims acted alone on 9-11, or not,” with Jerry Corsi and Peter Lance supporting the government’s “official” version of events, while David Ray Griffin and Alex Jones provide counter-arguments.

One 9-11 commentator has already written that, “This show's not reliable; the debate will be a sham,” and as it stands right now, I’m tending to agree with this sentiment. Why? Well, first we need to remember that Coast-to-Coast AM is owned by Establishment media powerhouse Clear Channel (Clear Channel Privacy Policy); therefore an extremely urgent question comes to mind: does Clear Channel want the absolute truth about 9-11 to emerge, or do they want to perpetuate the government’s ruse? The answer is obvious, because if Art Bell and George Noory had been legitimate truth-seekers instead of Company Men, they would have devoted a significant portion of their lives (as so many others of us have done) to destroying the Bush administration’s smokescreen-illusion.

Stated differently, 9-11 was an act of State-sponsored terrorism; yet we have Art Bell actually supporting Benjamin Chertoff’s Popular Mechanics 9-11 propaganda article. Worse, while 9-11 researchers and activists were screaming bloody murder about Bell’s atrocious, inexcusable actions, Alex Jones refused to say one negative word about him. In fact, Jones even went so far as to chastise callers to his show who were critical of Bell. Why? Why would Alex Jones go so far out of his way to protect a man [Art Bell] who is so deserving of our wrath and scorn? The answer is simple: Jones knew he would be "used" again in the future, and if he denounced Bell's show as blatant propaganda, then people would ask him why he's appearing on a show that is an obvious tool of the government. So, to compensate, he simply deflected attention away from Art Bell, just like a good Company Man would do! From my perspective, this is nothing more than Company Man A (Alex Jones) protecting Company Man B (Art Bell).

On the other hand, a few other Company Men in the “alternative radio” business are trying to paint an equally deceptive picture of Coast-to-Coast AM. Y’see, they’re saying that Art Bell has sold-out, but that George Noory is still legitimate. Such a portrayal, though, is a ruse, because remember – Noory and Bell both work for Clear Channel. In essence, then, what we have is a good cop/bad cop routine taking place right before our very eyes where Noory fills one role, while Bell assumes the other. How does it feel to be bamboozled yet again by these Company Men?

In addition, we need to hearken back to an article Lisa Guliani and I wrote entitled GCN an ABC Affiliate where radio talk-show host Alex Merklinger was mentioned. The following excerpt should be of vital interest to everyone:

          A few years ago, Merklinger was approached by Clear Channel to host a syndicated radio           talk show. The money they offered to him was substantial, and he would be heard all over the           country. There was only one drawback. In Clear Channel’s contract, they clearly stated that           they had complete editorial control over Merklinger’s content and guests. In other words, they           were the ones who determined whether or not a subject or personality was too controversial           for the airwaves.

          To his credit, Merklinger turned down their offer, and now he does his own independent           radio show. But think for a moment about Art Bell and George Noory. They’re both employed           by Clear Channel, and they’re forced to abide by the very same editorial control rules as           those presented to Alex Merklinger. Now can you see why certain guests never appear on           Coast-to-Coast AM?”

Lastly, we need to realize precisely how much money it takes to buy these individuals off. When Art Bell appeared in the State of Tennessee’s 20th Judicial District Court on November 19, 1999, he revealed (among many other things) in his testimony the vast amount of money he was being paid for doing Coast-to-Coast AM (See Art Bell Lawsuit pages 28-33).

Art Bell Testimony

As you can tell, the numbers are quite significant, and Art Bell was so resistant to these figures being released that he threatened legal action against the individual who forwarded the transcript to me. Now is it clear why Bell has aligned himself with the 9-11 debunking cabal? Likewise, when we follow the money, how much more evidence do we need to determine that Clear Channel is pulling the strings of both Art Bell and George Noory?

Now do you think this “debate” will be completely on the up-and-up? Face it: Art Bell is an establishment Company Man. George Noory is also an establishment Company Man. And now, guess who they’ve “selected” to be one of their “controlled opposition” 9-11 representatives at the June 16 roundtable – GCN Company Man and censorship king Alex Jones – the very same individual who has done everything humanly possible to squash all information on 9-11 on Trial, the definitive book on the WTC’s controlled demolition. Are things beginning to seem a bit too "managed" for you? Additionally, Alex Jones was the only person we know of who went to great lengths to deflect all criticism away from Art Bell when he sold the entire 9-11 movement down the tubes by lauding Popular Mechanics' Benjamin Chertoff – cousin of Homeland Security Director Michael Chertoff. And now, guess who was hand-selected to “represent” the 9-11 truth movement for Bell’s protégé – George Noory? Yup, you guessed it – none other than Alex Jones!

Is this whole “roundtable” debacle starting to smell fishy to you? Also, why aren’t any other radio show hosts or alternative media sources giving you this information – especially the Company Men at GCN (which is, by the way, an ABC affiliate)? Instead of the truth, all they do is keep pushing the “George Noory is a good guy” schtick, all the while perpetuating the above-chronicled scam job. I hate to say it, folks, but you’re being bamboozled --- AGAIN --- and its time to wake up to what’s taking place around you.

PART TWO

Now that we’ve seen how a couple of GCN Company Men are protecting their Clear Channel Company Men counterparts Art Bell and George Noory (similar to ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and Fox protecting each other), let’s turn our attention to the actual roundtable debate which will be held on the evening of June 16th. Specifically, there is only ONE way that David Ray Griffin and Alex Jones can defeat their government shill opponents, and that is to unceasingly push information proving that the World Trade Center towers were destroyed via a controlled demolition.

Let me repeat this point: Griffin and Jones need to hammer home without mercy the crux, central core issue of 9-11, and that’s the controlled demolition of WTC 1, WTC 2, and WTC 7. Every other issue is peripheral (secondary), and can be manipulated to promote the government’s incompetence and negligence cover stories.

Listen! In 9-11 on Trial we’ve cracked the case for 9-11! This one book more than any other proves that the government’s “official” version of events is a bold-faced lie, and that the WTC towers were deliberately demolished. This is State-sponsored terrorism, and we’ve compiled research from over 40 of the world’s best researchers to prove it.

With this sentiment in mind, we need to already be suspect of Coast-to-Coast AM host George Noory’s motives, for this is how the overall roundtable theme was framed:

                    “Did Muslims act alone on 9-11, or not?”

So, right off the bat Noory is giving credence to the government’s “19 Arab hijackers” ruse. If this guy was legitimate and not a Clear Channel Company Man, he would have set the tone by asking, “Was 9-11 an act of State-sponsored terrorism,” or “Were the WTC towers destroyed via a controlled demolition?” But of course Noory has already sidled-up with the “establishment” angle, and this should erect red-flags for everyone.

With this premise in mind, it’s obvious that Noory and his two guests – Peter Lance and Michael Levine (substituting for Jerry Corsi) – will do everything humanly possible to divert attention away from the crux issue – controlled demolition. Thus, whenever they mention Ruppertesque war games, pods, holograms, galvanic corrosion, peak oil, Osama bin Laden, military stand-downs, the Pentagon, or the 9-11 Whitewash committee, Griffin and Jones need to immediately draw them back to the controlled demolition. These above-mentioned issues (and others) either directly play into the government’s cover-story, or lend credence to the “limited hang-out” angle (i.e. LIHOP Let It Happen On Purpose negligence).

But once we prove the controlled demolition (as has been done beyond any shadow of a doubt in 9-11 on Trial), every other aspect of the government’s “conspiracy theory” is shredded beyond repair. Case closed! It’s like we kept saying at the Oklahoma City Bombing tenth anniversary rally – BOMBS IN THE BUILDING – BOMBS IN THE BUILDING! Everything else is secondary. If Griffin and Jones don’t keep pushing this angle, then you’ll know something is definitely awry.

Lastly, I’d like to give some advice to Alex Jones before his appearance:

1) First and foremost – Don’t act like Alex Jones. In other words, dump the frothing at the mouth lunatic-fringe antics and debate like a rational human being. I say this because I was recently speaking with somebody at the American Free Press and they said they’d be embarrassed to even give anyone a copy of your videos because you come across as such an unhinged maniac (i.e. an epitome of the “crazed conspiracy theorist” that is continually mocked and derided – a total stereotype). Alex, we don’t need psychotic madmen babbling and blathering … anyway, after watching one of your “lost” videos where your sidekick tells you to “quit putting on an act and just be real,” we know this is all phony-baloney theater. So drop the Rush Limbaugh schtick and just give us the facts.

2) Don’t --- under any circumstances --- delve into this “I’m the grandfather of 9-11” b.s. When David Ray Griffin appeared on your show a few weeks ago, it was one of the most pathetic performances we’d ever heard. I mean, here’s a guest who wants to speak rationally, and you launch into a five minute diatribe about being “the grandfather of 9-11.” We were cringing, and we’re sure David Ray Griffin was too. Others who heard the show were also appalled by your grandstanding. It was truly embarrassing. Plus, don’t ramble on about “how little your ego” is. Get over it! Nobody cares about your ego, and nobody cares about you being the grand-daddy of anything. Who in God’s name even talks about their ego on the radio anyway? Don’t you know how this crap comes across? You’re making us look bad, so STOP IT!

3) Last but not least, don’t turn your entire appearance into one long, extended infomercial for your videos and pay-per-view website. You’re not there to be a snake-oil vendor. Just stick to the issues. I mention this because during one of your last appearances on Coast-to-Coast AM, after babbling on for two hours with this BUY MY VIDEO BUY MY VIDEO mantra, a caller phoned-in and asked, “Alex, what can we do to combat the New World Order? What’s the solution?” And guess what you immediately told her. “BUY MY VIDEO!” Do you know how crass and low-class this sounds? Stop it!

Anyway, we’ll be listening; and remember – Controlled Demolition is the utmost 9-11 litmus test --- don’t fail us, and don’t let them off the hook.
