115. Regardless of whose version of events you find more believable...
...Bev Harris is handling this badly.

She claims she was asked to appear Nov 5th and 8th but was canceled both times. KO claims she was asked to appear on Nov 8th. He claims the show "didn’t cancel on her" but simply wanted to reschedule her for another time.

KO claims the show has asked her to appear with her videotapes of "the voting tapes Bev Harris found discarded in the trash in Florida" and that BH has declined. BH denies the show has asked her to appear since Nov 8th.

So what's the problem?

If KO wants her to appear on the show with the videotapes, and BH wants to appear on the show with the videotapes, why doesn't she simply allow the possibility KO proposed (that simple communication failures were the culprit), and publicly accept his public invitation to appear on the show and bring the videotapes?

If BH does not wish to appear on the show and show the videotapes for some strategic reason -- I won't try to guess what that may be -- then there's still no problem, right? Whether or not KO's show ever really invited her, she would have declined anyway.

However, if BH does not wish to appear simply because she is angry with KO for the alleged earlier cancellations, I think she is being petty. If it's strategically in the best interest to show those tapes, why would she decline an offer from the only media offering to air them? I mean, if she had a better offer from another show, that would be one thing. If she's sitting on the tapes just because of her bruised ego, that's pretty low.
