This is interesting.

The "Information Superstation", on channel 28, is a new TV channel that will broadcast unfiltered, unedited coverage of the White House and federal agencies all over the Washington area. It's licensed for low-powered transmission, so it will be limited the area within and around the Beltway. Station spokeswoman, Susan Lindauer, said, "There are approximately 38,000 top executives in the federal government that we will be reaching, and, there are over 2,200 associations and nonprofit groups in town. These will be a powerful audience for us in the beginning." Dennis Dunbar, the station's owner, is hoping to finance the station through advertisers that will be drawn to the station as an inexpensive way to reach policy makers. So far, Channel 28 has received support from the White House and a number of federal agencies, according to Lindauer.

CONFIRMED BY AP, SHE WORKED FOR DEMOCRATS BRAUN AND WYDEN
SHE'S THE DEMOCRAT SADDAM SPY

NEW YORK - A former journalist and ex-congressional press secretary was arrested Thursday on charges she acted as an Iraqi spy before and after the U.S. invasion of Iraq (news - web sites), accepting $10,000 for her work, prosecutors said Thursday.

Susan Lindauer, 41, was arrested in her hometown of Takoma Park, Md., and was to appear in court later in the day in Baltimore, authorities in New York said.

She was accused of conspiring to act as a spy for the Iraqi Intelligence Service and with engaging in prohibited financial transactions involving the government of Iraq.

Lindauer worked at Fortune, U.S. News & World Report and the Seattle Post-Intelligencer before beginning her career as a political publicist. She worked for then U.S. Rep. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., before joining the office of former Illinois Sen. Carol Moseley-Braun as press secretary in 1996.

Chris Fitzgerald, a spokesman for Wyden, now a senator, said the office had heard Thursday of Lindauer's arrest and expected to issue a statement later in the day.

"She worked for us a short period of time," he said.

Moseley-Braun's current spokesperson, Loretta Kane, said the former senator does not remember Lindauer.
