I thought it might be worthwhile to contact CSPAN to see if they might cover the 9/11 Congressional Briefing as mentioned yesterday as well as the related Emergency Truth Convergence. CSPAN has covered 9/11 a couple of times recently including David Ray Griffin last April and Lee Hamilton in May.

I have written the following email to CSPAN, and I encourage each of you to take the time this weekend to either send the following email, or write your own, to CSPAN encouraging them to not only cover this event, but the Truth Emergency Conference next weekend as well.

You should send your emails to their 'Suggest Events' email at events@c-span.org. You may also want to call them at (765) 464-3080.

Events Scheduler,

I am writing you in hopes that you might cover two very important events occurring next weekend (July 22nd - July 24th) in Washington, DC.

The first of these events is a congressional briefing sponsored by Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-GA) and Rep. Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ) being held on July 22nd 2005 for members of congress and their staffs in the Caucus Room, Cannon House Office Building, Room 345, Independence Ave. & First Street SE, from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. This event is entitled 'The 9/11 Commission Report One Year Later: A Citizens'’ Response - Did They Get It Right?'. This event will feature many prominent 9/11 researchers as well as family members of the victims of 9/11.

Here is a list of presenters for this event:
* Robert McIlvaine, father of 9/11 victim, member of September 11th Families for Peaceful Tomorrows
* Marilyn Rosenthal, mother of 9/11 victim, professor at U. of Michigan, expert on forewarnings to 9/11
* Robert Baer, author of Sleeping with the Devil and See No Evil, former CIA
* Nafeez Ahmed, author of The War on Truth, Director, Institute for Policy Research & Development
* Jumana Musa, Amnesty International
* Melvin Goodman, Fellow, Center for International Policy, former CIA
* John Newman, Ph.D., professor University of West Virginia, former NSA analyst
* Paul Thompson, author of The Terror Timeline
* Elaine Cassel, author of The War on Civil Liberties, legal expert
* William Michaels, author of No Greater Threat
* Lauretta Napoleoni, author of Terror Incorporated: Tracing the Dollars Behind the Terror Networks

* Peter Dale Scott, Ph.D., professor UC Berkeley, author of Drugs, Oil and War, former Canadian diplomat
* Murray Weiss, author of The Man Who Warned America concerning FBI agent John OÂ’Neill who died on 9/11

The second of these events is a 3 day event entitled 'D.C. Emergency Truth Convergence' which will take place July 22nd through July 24th. This event includes many prominent researchers and activists representing many different current day issues including 9/11, Iraq, the Downing Street Memo, and depleted uranium.

Here is a list of those involved in this event:
* Nafeez Ahmed, author of "War on Freedom"
* Michael Badnarik, Libertarian presidential candidate
* Colonel Robert Bowman
* John Brunes of Iraq Veterans Against the War
* Steve Cobble of afterdowningstreet.org
* Dr. David Ray Griffin, author of "The 9/11 Ommission Report: Omissions and Distortions"
* Jim Hoffman of wtc7.net
* Rep. Charles Key of the Oklahoma City Bombing Commission
* Ray McGovern, CIA veteran
* Leuren Moret, Depleted Uranium authority
* Gael Murphy of Code Pink
* Jenna Orkin of WTC Environmental Organization
* Don Paul
* Peter Phillips of Project Censored
* Danny Schechter, producer of "Weapons of Mass Deception"
* Paul Thompson, author of the "Terror Timeline"
* Celeste Zappala of Gold Star Families for Peace
* Barrie Zwicker, producer of "Great Conspiracy"

Recently CSPAN has done a great job of covering events that otherwise would go unnoticed by mainstream media. The most recent of these events include the recent airing of David Ray Griffin on BookTV as well as Lee Hamilton on CSPAN. During Hamilton's appearance on CSPAN it was mentioned how important the continuance of 9/11 discussion was, and I would argue that these events are key to that discussion.

Please consider covering both of these events, and please contact me, or the organizers of these events as to when these events might air.

Thank you for your time,
[Your Name Here]

p.s. be sure to replace [Your Name Here] with your name, and please let me know if you receive any non-canned response. Also, if you write your own letter feel free to post it here for others who might find it better than my quick write-up.
