 Greg Palast. He has uncovered\nscandal, fraud, corruption, and lies in the 
 highest\nseats of powerfrom the White House to corporate\nAmerica. Known 
 in Britain as "the greatest\ninvestigative reporter of our time" 
 (Tribune\nmagazine), Palast has broken some of the biggest\nstories 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\nTelevisions Newsnight and The Observer of London, 
 his\nextraordinary reports have been front page news in\nEurope, yet 
 blocked out of Americas mainstream\nmedia.  A former World Bank Chief 
 Economist told\nPalast that the bank, "condemned people to death." A\ngold 
 mining company sued him for his story about their\nalleged connections to a 
 homicidal regime in Africa.\nFor these reasons and more, Guerrilla News 
 Network,\nnamed Palast 2002 "Reporter of the Year."\n\nThis is a great
