NOW with Bill Moyers is a MUST SEE tonight!
NOW will be exploring unanswered questions surrounding 9/11. Man, this promises to be good!

NOW with Bill Moyers

Go get 'em, Bill.

The best show on the tube, IMHO.

4. Bill Moyers is always a must see...
I am so thankful for PBS, The McNeil/Leherer Report, BBC News Night and POV are always of interest to me. Thanks for the heads up.

5. Bill is invaluable
And you're right: he's alway's a must see.

But I think tonight may be the must see of all must see's.

Man, could we ever use about 10 more like Mr. Moyers in the "liberal media."

8. Abosolutely! How could I have left it out..
Frontline is my favorite. Sometimes I think it should be required viewing for everybody in this country. Thanks for mentioning it, guess my brain is on vacation this afternoon.

48. If Bill Moyers was so great
He would be on a commercial network, instead of one subsidized by the public. Same with Jim Lehrer.

50. What a silly thing to think
Do you think General Electric and the rest of the commercial whores want to have anyone on their channels telling the truth about the horrific world they are creating?

Edited on Sun Sep-14-03 05:16 PM by marshallplan
Bill Moyers is the only guy on TV nowadays (apart from the Frontline team) who has the balls to tell the truth about what's happening in this country and around the world in your name. (Unfortunately it's in all our names).

Do you really seriously think that the commercial networks would dare to bring out the truth like that? You know, the ones owned by GE - mega defense contractor, Disney - huge right-wing conglomerate, or Murdoch?

Get real. It's only because he is funded by the public and by an insurance company - his only sponsor, that he is able to get the truth out to people.

7. I had contributed to PBS. Then went back and gave more
explicitly to Bill Moyers. He is a bright light in this situation. I remember when he said he had never felt the need to dress himself in he flag to know he was a patriot; that being a patriot was never questioned. He then brought out the flag and said he would do it one time only because, and I am paraphrasing here, he was offended by all these people using the flag to imply that those who tried to find the truth or question the administration were not patriotic.

13. In some areas, they run it again.
They have "Now" on Friday night in my area, but I've noticed the show also runs on PBS on Sunday morning or early afternoon.

You should also be able to check transcripts.

44. Wonk — Have I told you lately how awesome you are? . . .
I missed the first half hour of NOW tonight (which I never do if I can help it) so I'm planning on trying to stay awake for the rerun at 2:15 in the morning. Regardless, I have taken the liberty of downloading the quicktime movie for future reference and in case I sleep through the rerun. Anyway, I want to thank you Wonk, from the bottom of my heart for all that you do for me and my fellow DUers. The quicktime movies and MP3s have saved me on more than one occasion and I am in awe of your generosity, kindness and thoughtful consideration.

As always . . .:yourock:

If you haven't seen it, try to catch a repeat. Or check if its on later. It's a must see and gives me a little hope (thank you George Soros) that this regime will be out of here.

27. Soros- extremists taken over
America waking up

If we re-elect Bush we are endorsing the Bush doctrine.

Bush hi-jacked by extremist elements.

Soros notes we have to get rid of Bush doctrine to resume our place as a leader to make the world a better place.

A billionaire who wants Bush out of office, and who has experience with turn out the vote drives in many other countries.

33. My wife watched the show for the first time tonight
and she was blown away by how good it was. She wants George Soros to buy a major media company so that we can counter the wingnut Murdoch media machine. She was also very moved by the tenacity of the New Jersey 9/11 widows. Great show!

38. My question is (tinfoilhat)
Those 911 widows are undeterred, and they are
determined to get some answers.

When she talked about the FAA, the air traffic
controllers, the F16s at Andrews, I thought I was
going to jump out of my skin.

I'm actually seeing the stuff we've been talking
about on my TV? More!! More!! More!!

But then my :tinfoilhat: went off, and I thought,
how are they going to shut those four women up?

39. Wow
I'm thanking my GOD for George Soros right now and feeling all the frustration of finding out 'you've been had' that the New Jersey wives feel.

My friends and I spend countless hours on the phone (long distance) speculating when things will get so bad in this country that a rich liberal will step in and FUND some effort to wake up the masses. Little did I know, being as poor as I am, that George Soros had stepped up to the plate. All that's needed now is good stewardship and a diligent team to put that money to good use.

Tonight, I feel like the dark cloud has lifted a bit.

Thanks again WONK!

40. re: 9/11 - this makes it sound soooo bad
I've read several articles about the unanswered questions about 911 but until hearing this show it didn't all gell.

I was always suspicious of Bush & Co. before and knew there was a cover-up. I also believed that it COULD be possible that Bush & Co. knew beforehand but I kind of thought that maybe I was just being paranoid or a conspiracy theorist. After watching this it's obvious to me that 9/11 was something other than just mere incompetence.
It is obvious that there was something very, very funny going on. Very, very chilling.

I'm making everyone I know listen to the segment on 911.

41. Check your local listings. Some stations air it on Saturday or Sunday too.
I get two PBS stations, and one airs it Friday and again really late Sunday night, the other airs it on Sunday afternoon, for example.

Thanks very much for posting the files, Wonk, the PBS station we receive doesn't carry NOW.

Last week Michael Meacher in The Guardian, this week, the widows on Hardball and NOW. Good days to be a LIHOPer.

I hadn't thought it possible, but just as Iraq has gone from a Bush asset to liability in the minds of most Americans, so, too might 9/11.

59. So....Does George Soros rule the world? What's his argument with Poppy?
Edited on Sun Sep-14-03 08:22 PM by KoKo01
That was a very interesting segment. He kept talking about "We" this and "We" that. He is "We" and makes decisions...but what happened that he and Carlyle/Poppy/Spawn had a big falling out?

And the 9/11 Wives was a must watch. You know what I wondered. Who is their Senator and House Rep who should be with them all the way in this. There were more questions left unaswered than answered by that segment.

Those four women are reduced to traveling to washington with boxes of files....because no one will help them? They have Senators in NJ.......they need to be represented. What the hell is going on here?
