It's about time this story (Eason Jordan's BS claims) made it into the print media......


Now lets see what CNN does.


Is there a tape or transcrpit from Davos out yet?

Is there a tape or transcrpit from Davos out yet?

I'm not quite clear on the relationship of the Worldforum.org blog to the official World Economic Forum in Davos, but Worldforum seems to be a great source (if the not the breaking source) on this story.

A post from this morning reads:

"We now understand that the WEF is mulling over the release of the videotape of the session with Jordan, and that there is a small debate brewing regarding the "on" or "off" the record nature of the session. I have also heard from the WEF's Head of Media, Mark Adams, just a few hours ago. Mark was kind enough to reply to an e-mail I sent him recently. Mark explained to me that the session was held under 'Chatham House Rules', which means that the general tenor of the debate can be reported but specific quotes are not attributable, which was done to encourage a full and frank exchange of views. Others have received a similar communication from Mark. I suppose this means that the public will not get to view a copy of the videotape, unless something changes. Unfortunately, this will likely only fuel speculation, feed rumors, and spawn numerous theories. The video would eliminate one part of this debate, and now what we will have is a pitched battle of memory, recollection, and context."

Mr. Frank said he tried to get information out of Mr. Jordan so that he could forward it to the appropriate congressional investigative authorities. " I think Congress has demonstrated with Abu Ghraib that we will aggressively pursue reasonable allegations," he said

????? ... another investigation???
