Summary:
Testimony of Jim Nibblett on media ownership, presented to the FCC in Seattle, Nov. 30 2006 [transcription] Full Story:
Hi. I am Jim Nibblett. I am a theorist. Now, I have heard all the jokes. Okay, a theorist is a general who doesn’t have person skills; he is a philosopher who can do the math. Okay, here’s the theory: we, the people, in order to form a more perfect union, provide for the common defense […] Katrina. If somebody raises their hand and says I promise to do my best to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution, and then don’t, what’s to do? And that’s what we’ve got right now. We’ve got habeas corpus as part of the Constitution, and it just went away the other day. And, we don’t have a media that will point out that fact, that hypocrisy, that corruption. I offer to you what you can do. |
