 Center\n\nJoin us for a lunch-time discussion with the\nmuckraking reporter 
 Greg Palast. He has uncovered scandal, fraud, corruption, and lies in the 
 highest seats of power—from the White House to corporate America. Known 
 in Britain as “the greatest investigative reporter of our time” 
 (Tribune magazine), Palast has broken some of the biggest stories of the 
 past decade, including: \n\n• How Bush killed the FBI's investigation of 
 the\nfinancing of terrorist organizations by Saudi Arabia \n• How the 
 Bush family stole the election in Florida\n• How Enron cheated, lied, and 
 swindled its way into\nan energy monopoly \n\nPalast is an award-winning 
 reporter for BBC\nTelevision’s Newsnight and The Observer of London, his 
 extraordinary reports have been front page news in Europe, yet blocked out 
 of America’s mainstream media.  A former World Bank Chief Economist told 
 Palast that the bank, "condemned people to death." A gold mining company 
 sued him for his story about their alleged connections to a homicidal 
 regime in Africa. For these reasons and more, Guerrilla News Network, named 
 Palast 2002 ‘Reporter of the Year.\n\nThis is a great opportunity to ask 
 Greg questions in an intimate setting, pick up a copy of "The Best 
 Democracy Money Can Buy" and to support your local Independent Media 
 Center. Sponsored by New college Media Studies MA Program.\n\n\n
