TOTAL INFORMATION ANALYSIS

Wednesday, February 04, 2004

Nelson Thall, producer of the "Cloak & Dagger" radio show for CFMJ-AM Toronto has posted to cloakanddagger.ca:

The Cloak and Dagger Show was banned by President Bush. Former Vice-President Al Gore's office advised The Cloak that President Bush personally told Prime Minister Paul Martin that "in return for oil concessions Bush told Martin to get The Cloak and Dagger show off the air.

I was told that the station was going to make a "genre" change to comedy. . . .

said Lenny Bloom.

"But Tom Heneghan (Tom of Venice) who is very close to former VP Al Gore told me that President Bush, when he met in Mexico with Paul Martin, made it part of the oil concession contracts that they were negotiating. Bush said he wanted Martin to cancel the Cloak and Dagger Show." I have been in contact with Gore since then to learn that he guaranteed its authenticity.

Thall hosts the show as Lenny Bloom, so he's quoting himself there.

The Cloak has borought lots of amazing information to mainstream radio, everything from the Victor Ashe-anthrax affair to missle shipments to Toronto police corruption to Bush-Clinton-Windsor slush funds. They will continue producing radiofor the INternet.

The question remains -- is this all high performance? Will the show return to the air waves when the hockey season breaks in a couple months? Hmm.
