Palast Investigations Under Attack

 

 

Palast Investigations Under Attack

Iraq oil, elections story scoops generate awards and lawsuits

 

Our work is under attack and we need your help. Bluntly: without your

financial support, we're finished. GregPalast.com will be no more and

the on-going investigation of the election, the war and globalization

shuts down.

 

Our story on secret US plans for Iraq's oil for BBC and Harper's

Magazine has already generated two threats of lawsuits from the oil

industry.

Our revelations on the manipulation of the US voting operations has

generated more threats. We still have bills left over from our smashing

legal victory over George Bush Sr.'s partners in his blood-soiled gold

mining business.

 

Please send us your tax-deductible donation to keep our current

investigations alive. If you can send at least $40 to our educational

foundation, I'll send you a signed copy of " Weapon of Mass

Instruction, " my

spoken word CD, in appreciation. Go to

http://www.gregpalast.com/store.htm

 

The team is embarking on a whole new round of investigations on the

solid evidence that - gasp! - George Bush did NOT win the last election;

on the secrets of Big Oil and Dick Cheney in their carve-up of Iraq; and

more: I am writing this from Ecuador, covering the State of Siege in

this one-time member of OPEC.

 

Our investigative scoops you hear on BBC, Democracy Now and Air America

may win worldwide journalism awards - but they earn, after our costs,

not one single penny.

 

Donate $200 I'll send you a Patron Saint of Journalism pack: a signed

book, film on DVD, book and the CD. Your donation is tax deductible at

http://www.gregpalast.com/store.htm

 

Greg Palast has never and will never pay a dime to " settle " law suits

against our journalism. Aggressive defense of the truth is costly.

 

But our biggest challenge is not in a courtroom, but on the airwaves

and in print: to get the word out. Your donation will pay the light and

phone bills and most important, our brilliant multi-lingual research

team - and our lawyers. Greg Palast takes no salary - zero.

 

But we cannot keep running in the red. So please send us your

tax-deductible $40 or $200 donation to our educational foundation.

Don't want

the CD (produced by Jello Biafra)? We also have other gifts at

http://www.gregpalast.com/store.htm I'd be happy to sign. Get our BBC

film on DVD, Bush Family Fortunes, winner of the George Orwell

Courage-in-Journalism prize or a signed copy of the Election Edition

of the New

York Times bestseller, Best Democracy Money Can Buy.

 

Thank you for all of your support,
