Pundit Review Radio

The fact is that the MSM is fully invested in our defeat in Iraq. Always have been. They work against the US at every turn, on issues big and small. They are pouring gasoline on the insurgency in Iraq and the domestic insurgency here at home. What is Pundit Review Radio? Pundit Review Radio is where the old media meets the new.

On the 3rd anniversary of the start of the Iraq War, we welcomed back independent citizen journalist Michael Yon. As most of you know by now, Michael is a former Green Beret who embedded himself on the front lines with the troops for most of 2005. His reporting from the front has been compared to the great Ernie Pyle. We focused this discussion on a recent LA Times article, mentioned last week by President Bush, that gave away how we are dealing with the threat of improvised explosive devices. Thanks to the LA Times, the terrorists now have the information they need to combat our new technology designed to keep our troops safe. It’s one thing to not support the war, it is another entirely to give the enemy the means to more easily kill our soldiers.

This is an extended interview with Howie Carr on his new book, The Brothers Bulger: How they terrorized and corrupted Boston for a quarter century. Among the interesting tidbits, the deal 60 Minutes cut with the publishers of Kevin Weeks book. They claim to not pay their sources, but now we know different. Also of interest was some information about former Mass. governor Bill Weld and his relationship with Billy Bulger and how that may cost him in his campaign for governor this year in New York. This is a story of political and law enforecement corruption unprecedented in American history. If you are not familiar with the story of the Bulger Brothers, you will be amazed. Having been a regular caller for a decade to Howie’s afternoon drive show on WRKO, it was a surreal experience to have him in studio as a guest on our show last night.
