On today’s BradCast, breaking news on President Obama’s final Keystone XL pipeline decision and more fallout following the completely unverified results of Tuesday’s Gubernatorial election in Kentucky. (Audio link to complete show is below.)
On Keystone: Obama finally rejects TransCanada’s application to build the controversial tar sands pipeline from Alberta down to the Gulf of Mexico. Our producer and green news expert Desi Doyen joins us to help separate fact from fiction on the long-awaited decision, and to offer long-overdue kudos to those citizens who organized, activated, advocated and otherwise successfully took on the most powerful interests in the history of civilization to block the project in the name of the environment.
On Kentucky: Several new developments following the completely unverified results of Tuesday’s Gubernatorial election in Kentucky, where pre-election polls all predicted the opposite of the ‘landslide’ reported by the state’s computer tabulators. Among those developments: A KY newspaper fires their well-respected pollster rather than bothering to find out if the polls were right and the results were wrong; Another reminder of why hand-marked paper ballots like those in KY are swell, but only if you bother to actually count them; We weather a few attacks from progressives who charge us with forwarding conspiracy theories and don’t think we should bother to count ballots; And, new information out of Pima County (Tucson), AZ to remind us why citizen vigilance and oversight is needed to assure the survival of democracy.
Also today: The Koch Brothers tell MSNBC they are champions of the environment and MSNBC doesn’t bother to correct them — so, we do. Plus, a few other pieces of important news at week’s end…

Elections are stolen with impunity and it will keep happening until we organize and take that impunity away by using our citizenship.

John R Brakey:
I’m watching your “Fatally Flawed” movie. It’s like Perry Mason only much more exciting. Poor Bryan Crane. Those long pauses wouldn’t have played well on a TV series. Nobody would have believed it.
Thank you for proving you can be polite like Columbo and get to the bottom of things. Falk and Burr always wrapped things up in about an hour. Election matters seem to take much longer, but great job so far!
