My intent is to point out that lying to make your point is wrong, an abuse, and unjustified. It also waters down any serious message – which is the most harmful thing.

I have not stated my opinion on 9/11 – that I will keep to myself. I am more than able to see what is happening, but again, that was not the focus of this article.

No research is required to see a lie, a misdirection or a blatantly obvious attempt to boost ratings.

However, they are also old news and more than well known, and not of any interest to me in the scope of this article.

My focus is on knowledgeable deceit. The deceit – that this was an actual interview – which was maintained for the first 90 minutes – is unprofessional, childish, and most likely illegal (in terms of libel law).

Jones has done good work – I don’t disagree with that either. His loud agressive method can help to engage those who are not familiar with his subject matter. However, it is also important to bear in mind that outside the world of conspiracy theorists this approach also makes him (to the mainstream media and a large chunk of the population who do not have the ability to queston the mainstream) a joke with no influence – a loud, comedic buffoon not worthy of any attention – this is also not helped by the fact that his site exists (to them) more to sell product and make money than get a message across.

The issue at hand is that regardless of his true intentions – we may never know – to the MSM and outsiders he will have simply reinforced their existing beliefs that conspiracy theorists are crazy loons and can be ignored. By default, such a person who holds this belief would also then view the material itself with the same disregard, and the questions – impotrant questions – that the interview brings up wold be dismissed also.

If Jones’ intention was to bring his facts and thoughts to a wider, mainstream audience, he has failed. That mainstream audience will now be laughing and saying “what a jerk”.

His psy-op tactic failed miserablly, and smacks of nothing more than a cheap attempt to drive traffic to his site and make more money. Such a tactic suggests his motiveations a merely financial, not for the greater good, no matter how loud he shouts. And given that he is the loudest voice of the CT world, it is a terrible backwards step to anyone who genuinely wants these questions answered.

Finally, such a lie is stooping to the level of those that he accuses of misdeeds and foul play. I cannot support nor give credence to someone who uses such deceit on their followers. There are many other ways this cold have been done that do not involve lying to the people who pay for his house, his car, and all the nice things he owns. See my point?

Finally, if this mede up open letter is “the most profound and amazing thing he has ever done”, then I’m afraid that does not say much for all his work that has preceded it. I could write that in five minutes.

IN closing, think of it this way: Imagine if this “open letter” had been printed (without the disclaimer) in a major mainstream print outlet like the Washington Post or the NYT or some such. And then was revealed to be fictional the next day. Would you applaud the newspaper? No. You would watch as the newpaper got its ass sued and editors were politey but firmly fired.

The content of the letter is irrelevant to this article. The method employed to showboat it are not. That’s my issue. A dick move is a dick move whether your wear a black hat or a white hat.

And one last final though: I will always trust someone who tells me a fact and shows me the evidence at no charge; I will never trust someone who has to sell me a book or a DVD to do educate me.

It’s not about personalities, I’d take my news off of a retarded crackhead bum if he linked to mainstream news stories and backed up everything he said with documentation, as Jones does. Sheens letter is bulletproof. There’s a bibliography for it with links that’s multiple pages long.

I’m blogging on this story too chriskillz503.blogspot.com, except I’m really covering this story like a real journalist, not engaging in ninnying distractions.
