The list of quesitons is long and growing. The answers are nowhere...
DERELICTION of DUTY THE EXODUS OF INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM A TVNL CHALLENGE 24-Feb-2004
In another time, there would have been questions. In another time, there might have been answers. But then again, in another time there were independent journalists.

In our time, the government has a free hand to act with impunity and without accountability. But then again, in our time, George Bush and his PNAC cohorts are in power.
In our time, the public remains shamefully uninformed. In our time, the distractions, diversions, deceptions and delusions permeate the media. In our time, not asking is patriotic, and not knowing is the norm. If that continues, we will run out of time, in our time.
In our time, someone has to pick up the gauntlet. In that hope, TvNewsLies will review some of the questions that demand answers. We challenge the corporate media to openly and vigorously publicize the secrecy and stonewalling that have surrounded each of them.
