Al Hurra Documentary

I am catching up on my Weekly Standard reading today. "Uday's Oil-for-News Program" is quite an enlightening piece. It seems to confirm what most of us free-thinking folks have thought for quite a while: Al Jaazera is a very thinly veiled tool of Middle East despots and terrorists.

Does anyone know if the Alhurra expose on Saddam's financial links to the Arab press is available online or elsewhere (either dubbed in English or with subtitles)?

I've done some looking around online, and I can't find an english version of Al-Hurra. It may not exist yet. Al-Jezeera just added an english version to their website recently. Al-Hurra is still new.

However, MEMRI and it's companion site, MEMRI TV might have translated versions of the Uday documentary. Also worth a look is Watching America, which coalates and compiles foreign news casts to see what the rest of the world is saying about the US.

Just checked, no Uday documentary on MEMRI. I'll fire off an email to them suggesting that they translate that one. Sounds like a good one.

Hey Kad, let me know if you ever find this one. I know this mission is in good hands since you speak the language. I would love just to read the transcript if it exists!

Friday Night with Hugh and Friends

The consummate Conservative host, Hugh Hewitt, and yours truly! Shameless of me to post this, I know; however, I'm too jazzed to care. :-p What a wonderful way to spend a Friday night! After an hour or so wandering through some of the exhibits at the Frazier Historical Arms Museum, I then got to spend three hours with Hugh Hewitt and 599 other fans of his show. I absolutely MUST say that not only was Hugh wonderful and the live show very entertaining, but his fans are absolutely the nicest people! I've seen other radio talk show s done live and mingled with fans of those shows. Hugh Hewitt's fans are the nicest, most down to earth, friendly people I've ever met. It's quite a credit to Hugh that he draws such a fan base. If you haven't been to the Frazier Historical Arms Museum here in Louisville, it's a must-see. The museum shows an amazing artistry with the exhibits and places them in the context of the times in a very entertaining and educationa

As the Blog Turns...

Gee. I have found myself fascinated by the soap opera unfolding in the comments section of this blog since last night. One little mention on a controversial Democrat's blog and it's High Noon on ConservaChick! (Yes, I'm laughing while I type this.) For those of you who have no idea what's happening in the ever-expanding comments section , join the club! Here's what I know about Mark Nickolas from bits and pieces I've read on his blog, and from a local news report: Nickolas likes to sneer at Republicans and call them snide little nicknames as he provides his "Unfiltered and Candid Look at Politics, Politicians and the Media in Kentucky;" he raised a ruckus within the Democrat party here in Kentucky by filing a suit against the chairman of the party , Jerry Lundergan; and he will be appearing on the same panel with yours truly on Thursday night. That's about it. You now have the benefit of my not-so-extensive knowledge on this subject. Nickolas poste
