In advance of tomorrow’s related story [Update: That story now posted here], I thought you might appreciate a quick look at the following if you’ve never seen it before. Diane Sawyer narrates the story of FBI translator-turned-whistleblower Sibel Edmonds as she was awarded the 2006 PEN/Newman’s Own First Amendment Award.
In the bargain, it’s also worth remembering that Sawyer herself is at least aware of Edmonds, who she is, and some of what she’s had to go through, further begging the question of why ABC News has failed to even note — much less investigate and/or cover — the recent revelations of bribery and blackmail of current and former U.S. Congressmembers and high-ranking State and Defense Department officials, and the theft and sale of nuclear secrets by agents of Turkey and Israel, as detailed in her sworn deposition in August, and remarkable AmCon cover-story interview which followed it late last month…
Brad,
Thanks for posting the video about Sibel Edmonds’ PEN award, and thanks for keeping up with this story despite the behavior of the msm.
It’s important to be reminded that there are stand-up people in the world. I’d encourage anyone reading this who hasn’t seen the video to click on it now.
Good point Mitch. Sawyer is CFR and has no interest in exposing the unseemly source of her paycheck.
The cannonball patriot! Thats way better than birther or truther.
Isn’t it?
Anyway thanks Brad for showing the world WTF is going on.
Sibel Rocks. Over and Over and Over……
“patriot” now has a new definition = Sibel Edmonds.
Diane Sawyer wow there’s someone who should be carrying a press pass. ;o)
What brings her to the party? Or is it a trick?
Journalism is only “for profit” right?! right!?
Then again, if it plays out to actually find or not find guilt quickly(tm) and accurately(c) in *currently serving officials* perhaps it is journalism. And if it is journalism, then where the hell was it all this time? And why ain’t it picked up the rest of the serious problems?
Not saying I’m much better. I ain’t! lol (At least I tell you I’m not)

Where’s Greg lately? There has got to be a final way to prove once and for all these electronic vote tabulation devices (and now e-poll-books or some shit) and even the worst idea of all … internet voting . so wtf
Our little fuckn war on these corrupt people ain’t got too far, as their god damned lawsuits, and proxy bypassing bullshit with new laws is unacceptable.
So fuck them.
They OWE
Everybody Chime the hell in.
Plausible deniablity Phil. The lame stream can say they told the story and nobody thought it was that big of a deal.
Ratings Phil. TV, Hello?!
Just chiming in to say that plausible deniability is what many people involved in this scandal should be thinking about. Others could turn state-witness, and yet still others are screwed. That’s assuming that’s it’s even half true. Which I’m still not convinced is true.
