I'll be on Randi Rhodes's show tomorrow! :)

[paulthompson]

Good news,

I'll be on Air America's Randi Rhodes show tomorrow (Thursday) at 5:30 PM EST, talking about 9/11 and my book The Terror Timeline. Probably for half an hour. Then that evening, I'll be on the Joey Reynolds Show at about 2 AM for at least an hour. Then on Friday evening, I'll be on the XM Satellite Network's show called "Make It Plain" hosted by Mark Thompson. 5:15 EST for about half an hour.

The Joey Reynolds one will be interesting, as it could go for several hours and really get into things. I hear he's syndicated to 100 radio stations.

Reviews:

“THE TERROR TIMELINE is a tremendous resource that will give readers a truly independent means of judging our government in its errant conduct of the war on terror.”
PETER LANCE, author of Cover Up and 1000 Years for Revenge

“A spectacular resource that is an essential tool for anyone who is truly interested in understanding the events leading up to 9/11.”
CRAIG UNGER, author of the House of Bush, House of Saud

“This is the basic book on 9/11. Paul Thompson's work tells what happened that day, tracing the events leading up to the attack, and what has transpired since. After years of self-serving reports by ineffectual politicians in Washington, there is at last an independent report, based entirely on publicly known facts, that is thorough and reliable. Read it and decide for yourself whether there was a cover-up. It is truly remarkable. Thank God there are people like Thompson.”
JAMES RIDGEWAY, author of The March to War

“Paul Thompson's Timeline has served as the definitive source for any researcher attempting to penetrate the mysteries of 9/11. This book effect a major change in the course of U.S. history.”
PETER DALE SCOTT, author of Drugs, Oil, and War: The United States in Afghanistan, Columbia, and Indochina

“Paul Thompson’s exhaustive and richly detailed research has now provided the world with a veritable treasure trove of 9/11 information. If you want to know everything about 9/11, you must read this book. If you want to better understand 9/11, you must read this book. Our intelligence agencies should be recruiting people like Paul Thompson, because he’s brilliant.”
KRISTEN BREITWEISER, co-chair, September 11th Advocates; member,
Family Steering Committee; and wife of Ronald M. Breitweiser, WTC Tower Two

1. DON'T CHOKE!

[RhodaGrits]

2. Good luck!

I bought your book because it seemed only fair after reading it online and referencing it so often with my friends. You opened many eyes with that timeline. Thank you.

[Safi]

3. Thank you so much Paul

for all the hard work you put into the timeline..

[vetwife]

4. Congratulations...Hope all listens...who hasn't been hit by Ivan

[Lefta Dissenter]

5. that IS good news!

Congratulations!!! :toast:

I'm listening to Randi now - we FINALLY have Air America here in Madison (my slodem doesn't give me a good enough connection to listen online), and I've already turned into an ADDICT!

Have a great time!

[ronnykmarshall]

6. Coolness!

Give a shout out the DU'ers!

[ClintonTyree]

7. Kudos Paul......................

great job by the way. Do youself proud and use the big hammer!

[gratuitous]

8. Excellent

Make a list of the three or five things you definitely want to talk about. I've noticed that "friendly" interviews on Randi get their chance to talk, but they usually have to wait for Randi to riff for a little while, so having a short list of things you want to be sure to mention will help keep you focused.

Best of luck. Too bad it will be on after I have to tune out, but knock 'em dead, anyway!

[paulthompson]

13. thanks for the advice

How often does she have guests, by the way? I hear she doesn't do that very often. Is that true?

[dennis4868]

18. not too often.....

maybe a couple of guests a week.....there are times she goes a whole week without any guests...she must be impressed with you.

[Sperk]

9. Awesome! I'll be listening....good luck! Tell Randi DU loves her

most of us anyway. :evilgrin:

[ocean girl]

10. Fabulous, Paul - I'll be listening!!!

For people who miss it, go to Randi's archive website to download:

[AnnInLa]

11. Congrats! Go team!

Lovely you are getting recognition for all your good work! Say hello to DU! Will be listening.

[LizW]

12. Good for you, Paul!

I just started Peter Lance's book, "Cover Up: What the Government is Still Hiding about the War on Terror". As I'm sure you know, he gives you great kudos in the introduction. :thumbsup:

[paulthompson]

16. good book

Peter Lance has been a huge help for me and we're of the same mind on many things.

[sweetheart]

14. Excellent, play to her ego

She likes to be the "colour" person, so if you plan your talking
points to be diving boards for her, it'll charm the situation.

You're already an expert by the book, so no need to assert too much.

In short, let her lead the dance, and it'll be magic.

what great good fortune,
-s

[paulthompson]

15. Thanks

I know she talks about 9/11 alot, and the Bush in the elementary school thing alot, based on the couple times I've heard her (which is hard to do, living in New Zealand). Does anyone know any other 9/11 facts/themes/interests she might have?

[dennis4868]

19. she is big on the fact.....

that Bush ignored so many warnings before 911 and that Clinton was considered by many to be obsessed with getting al Qaeda.

[Eloriel]

24. You're in NEW ZEALAND?

Holy cow. Somehow that makes your work all the more impressive. Thank you for caring about us so much.

Congrats and good luck! If I have power (thanks to Ivan), I'll tune in too. Can't wait.

[paulthompson]

25. Yep

But why is that so amazing? I'm an American, recently moved there. I figure with internet work, it doesn't matter where you are.

[Eloriel]

32. Oh, you're an American -- I get it

I assumed you were a Kiwi. And of course you're right: the internet is the BEST form of globalization. :D

[Pallas180]

17. Congrats Paul. Would you print out the Stanley Hilton story

above here on DU and hand it to Randy for us.....she'd have the guts
to talk about it.

[paulthompson]

21. Stanley Hilton?

I'm very doubtful about this Stanley Hilton stuff. He's said some weird things. For instance, he more or less agreed in a previous interview when Alex Jones started going off seriously about the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. A lawyer friend said some of the things he's saying in interviews could lead to the dismissal of some of his evidence. I take the similar Ellen Mariani lawsuit much more seriously.

[Pallas180]

35. I think if your life was being threatened and you were being harrassed

you might be sounding a bit breathless also...

I dont know anyting about Zion and I'm sure it's not in his pleading papers...but apparently Japan thought enough of what he's doing to do
a tv program on it.

[paulthompson]

39. Hilton

Check out his earlier Alex Jones interview:

SH: Well, the term that has been used is Zionazis, I think it’s an apt term - Zionazis. And I think it’s ironic because the Nazis based their theory on the “Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” which are alleged to have been shaped by Czar claiming the Jews wanted world conflict. Now we’ve got the complete reverse, where the current Zionazis of Israel and their friends here in the Bush administration and elsewhere are emulating Hitler. It’s come full circle. Essentially it is the same thing, whether you call them Jews or non-Jews. The point is it’s the same ideology - tyranny....

http://www.prisonplanet.com/jones_report_031403_hilton.html

Maybe he's trying to make a legitimate point (he goes on to say: "Yeah, Hitler used the word Jew. Today the word we are using terrorist."), and he does make some legitimate points here and there, but the way he says it here comes out all wrong to me. Very wrong.

[Sophree]

56. I got the same feeling from that interview with Stanley Hilton.

The thing that perked my ears was his statement about Bush thinking it was a drill and that was why he didn't looked surprised.

That's BS. They knew it was the real deal that day. Doesn't mean there weren't drills before or on that morning.

He said some other contradictory things that I can't recall right now. I'll have to read it again.

[calimary]

20. You'll be wonderful! OBVIOUSLY you know the material.

You can speak with the greatest of credibility, and you will. Just remember - you're talking to ONE person - a friend. Just tell your friend stuff. It'll fly by...

[Cleita]

22. I heard Randi announce it today.

I am looking forward to listening to you. I won't be able to get the other show.

[BrotherBuzz]

23. Neat!

And lucky me, I just discovered an AAR in my area...I'll be listening.

[grasswire]

26. go Paul!

Stand up! Keep fighting! (Paul Wellstone)

[gandalf]

27. See my amazon.com review

I tried my best (An eye-opening reference book on 9/11), but the sales rank could do better.

I hope your public appearances will help to promote the book.

[paulthompson]

30. Thanks a ton for the Amazon review

I hope other people here who read the book also leave reviews. I hear that really helps with sales of the book.

And I'd love to hear from people how accessible the book is in bookstores. If I hear stories of people having trouble finding it, I can bother Harper Collins about that.

[gandalf]

34. You're welcome. Accessibility:

As I live in Germany, I cannot judge that, as our bookstores here have a limited offer of English books.

Amazon.de will launch it on Sept. 30.

[in_cog_ni_to]

28. I'll be listening!

Good Luck! :bounce:

[paulthompson]

29. make that Randi Rhodes today

Still 5:30 PM, EST. I also am going to be on Air America's Morning Sedition program, tomorrow (Friday) at 6 AM EST, apparently for a full hour. They had me on last week, but want me back already. :)

[truthspeaker]

36. That's awesome! Can you get me her phone number? ;)

Amazing job with the timeline!

That's how I listen. I live in KC and we have only right wing radio here.

[paulthompson]

65. I'll be on satellite radio later today

XM Satellite, at 5 PM EST, I think, the "Make It Plain" show hosted by Mark Thompson. So don't miss it. :)

37. Good Luck!

Kick!

38. Good Luck Paul

Tell Randi hear listeners at DU said hello!

[paulthompson]

40. Here's something

I've figure out how to get a version of a TV interview I did a couple of days ago up on the web. It's from Fox Channel 5, a New York Fox station, and lasts about 15 minutes:

http://64.235.244.165/bill/foxchannel5.wmv

Unfortunately, I couldn't figure out how to cut out the commercials. Can anyone help with that?

[paulthompson]

41. Also got it on audio

Higher quality sound than in the video clip. You can download it from here:

http://64.235.244.165/bill/foxchannel5.mp3

[paulthompson]

42. Randi Rhodes interview over - did anyone catch it?

The interview was short, but good. She said something like, "If you buy just one book this year, buy this one." :)

She also said she wants to have me back on for a longer section in a week or two, after she's read the book.

I'm also looking forward to the Air America Morning Sedition broadcast tomorrow morning at 6 AM. They're really friendly and supportive there.

[Joanne98]

43. No I didn't catch it but your awesome anyway.. GO PAUL GO.......

[madfloridian]

44. Yes, I started a thread. You were super.

Then the board was down a while during your interview. Randi really was impressed with you, and said you were a cutie? LOL When did you move to NZ?

[Cleita]

45. Yes, I caught it. Randi really gave you a good review.

I wish she had you on longer too.

[ellie]

46. I heard it Paul!

It was really good! I am going to have to pick it up this weekend.

[proud patriot]

47. I had to go pick up kids during your interview

I plan on listening to the archive later.

[Cassandra]

48. I was on the bus..

happily listening to you. You were great!

[Individualist]

52. You were terrific, Paul

I was glad to hear Randi is really impressed with the work you've done. :hi:

[laura888]

67. Yes! She obviously extremely admires you.

I must say, she got my interest up about your book. This is VERY important work you're doing.

It will probably be used in textbooks years from now. I have no doubt at all about it.

[Cookie wookie]

49. Randi Rhodes mentioned you this afternoon

I heard it as I was listening to Air America on 1690 in Atlanta Georgia!!!!!!!!! I read here a mention somewhere I think that AA was coming to Atlanta at the end of the week sometime. Today during my commute home I ventured to the old AM dial, something I haven't gone near in years. When I found it, I went crazy with happiness.

Will be sure to tune in to hear Thompson. Have been using his time line, and referring others to it, as an important reference, among others, for making informed decision about the events surrounding 9/11.

[madfloridian]

50. Here is the thread I started earlier.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x2361430

[Comicstripper]

51. OOOH, I HEARD YOU TODAY BEFORE I KNEW IT WAS YOU!

You were great on the show! I think Randi has a little crush on you...
Seriously, you could tell she really liked your book and said a whole bunch of times that, if she had to recommend just ONE book, it'd be yours. How was your radio experience?
Was Randi as cool as she seems?
Did you get an autograph?
DID...DID SHE MENTION ME?!?!?!?
I mean...that's cool. She-she's cool. I eman, we're just friends is all. I don't like her-like her or nothin'.
Shucks.

[Stephanie]

53. Paul, you were terrific

I heard the whole thing. I think Randi has a crush on you.

Are you in NY? You should have let us know. We'd have a DU party for you.

[paulthompson]

54. Thanks

Yes, I'm in NYC, but leaving soon (Saturday, probably). But I'll be back in a week after going to DC. It would be great to meet some people. Want to do it then?

[Stephanie]

55. Yes, let's do it then. Tell us what night is good.

And we'll meet at Rocky Sullivans at Lexington & 29th. We'll put out the word in the Lounge.

*edit* Are you having a book party in NY? Maybe we should make it a book party. I'd be up for organizing that.

[paulthompson]

57. PARTY! :)

I don't know what a book party is. What's that? In any case, I'll probably be back in NYC next Sunday night, and stay for about three days. Plans are still vague. Sunday, Monday, Tuesday night for sure. I'd be really psyched to do something. It's great meeting like minded people. With all my work being done pretty much on the internet, I hardly ever put faces to names.

[Stephanie]

59. Let's do it next Sunday. What time do you get in?

Is Sunday good?

[paulthompson]

61. Let's plan on Sunday then

I don't know yet what time I'll get in, but I could make it a point to be in NYC by a certain time if there's a fun party to attend. :)

[paulthompson]

58. Wow

My book was dropping in the Amazon rankings to 1000, and the Randi Rhodes interview put it up at #56! I never imagined my book up there.

Tomorrow morning 6 AM to 7 AM EST, I'm doing the Morning Sedition program on Air America, so please check that out. It'll be a full hour instead of just 15 minutes as with Randi, and since I was on Morning Sedition last week, we'll hopefully get more into the nitty gritty.

[Eloriel]

60. That's AMAZING

Fantastic, too.

PS: Great job on Randi Rhodes -- and you're doing great on Joey Reynolds right now !!!

[paulthompson]

66. I just did Air America's Morning Sedition...

Did anyone catch it? For some reason they wanted to talk about drugs and Afghanistan, so that's what we talked about the whole time. Which was fine.

[hedda_foil]

69. I caught both shows, Paul!

You were fantastic on both (though the two Marks were irritating as hell!). Did you really sleep in Randi's office last night? Put out a call on DU, and I know you'll find DUers to put you up! You're one of our own, after all.

[paulthompson]

70. They were joking about that

Because I told them that I did some middle of the night interview stuff, so I basically didn't get any sleep.

I liked the Marks. I found them funny, and they seem to really love their work and have fun AND they're politically informed and liberal.

[WLKjr]

73. I caught it

Will have to check out your book. Is it at B&N now?

[paulthompson]

74. It should be

If you don't find it at your local bookstore, give 'em some grief. ;)

72. Thanks for those numbers

All due to Air America's coverage, I think. And to reiterate, I'll be on XM Satellite radio at 5 PM EST today, the "Make It Plain" program, so I hope people check that out.
