On Januray 14, 2007, Bryan "Zepp" Jamieson posted an article to these
groups entitled "Rotterdamerueng"(sic). In the main, this "essay"
differed
very little from Bryan's usual collection of lies, lame invective and
canards but it did include the following paragraph which - even with
the name misspelling - caught my eye:

"We in the Lying Socialist Weasels (Steve was a member) also learned
another important lesson: television media personages were no longer
journalists. A week after Steve's death, a smarmy little creature
named Tucker Carlson decided to write a story about the emotionally
troubled would-be assassin of Richard Scaife. Or so Carlson had
decided Steve should be portrayed. Of the hundreds of friends and
foes
on Usenet Carlson could have asked for information, he chose exactly
one: a noisome Usenet denizen, a Free Republic habitue who routinely
liked to mine the internet for personal information on liberal
posters
with an eye to intimidating them. That user, one Kirk Nicklas, posts
a
celebration of Steve's death each year, just because he enjoys
hurting
people. That was the only person that Tucker Carlson found to be
worth
discussing Steve's death with. It taught us that the stuffed shirts
on
cable news were more interested in promoting diseased propaganda then
they were in getting news stories."

I've reprinted the story from Carlson in a separate thread entitled
"Stalking Scaife". The article makes no mention of me 'Kurt', 'Kirk'
or otherwise. Why did Bryan lie about the article? I've challenged him
repeatedly to produce
any piece where Carlson claims to have interviewed me. Each challenge
is met
with silence.

On, the other hand, the following is the one and only article
regarding the suicide of Steve Kangas for which I WAS interviewed. I
leave it to the reader to decide if I was 'celebrating' Kangas' death
as Bryan alleges. What will be obvious is that most of those
interviewed for the piece *are* friends of Kangas.

Perhaps "Zepp" is simply miffed that no one from Salon interviewed
*him* for the piece. Until he breaks his silence about this subject,
we'll never know....

A VINCENT FOSTER FOR USENET LIBERALS?
