Siegelman Piece Not on 60 Minutes Tonight - Updated
Update: We got the definitive word; the Siegelman story is not airing on 60 Minutes tonight despite the original post below to the contrary. Even the show’s producer who did the piece doesn’t know when it will air - and will not until the Thursday before the broadcast.
The awaited 60 Minutes story on former governor Don Siegelman will air tonight according to APTV’s Tim Lennox.

No, I thik tonight they are doing a piece on dillusional personalities featuring Bob Riley’s claim of bringing integrity and honesty to Montgomery. He did however bring his son Rob to Montgomery which completely obliterates the first claim.

very clever 7, hope that’s working out for you. the point is that funny guys like 5 are the reason that we can not have a civil conversation without someone turning it into a “conspiracy” or riley ethics…comical really how you and all the liberals are coming out swinging when you have so many skeletons and crooks in your ranks…

This Locust Fork nut needs to stay out with the birds as birdseed. The Don was found GUILTY, he would have been for any of his past crimes, if the government had the nerve to charge him earlier. It was common knowledge in Alabama political circles that Don was asking “favors” far back in his career.
Comment by anonymous — February 17, 2008 @ 6:13 pm
“the nerve to charge him earlier?” He was indicted on 32 counts going all the way back to when he was lt.gov. 25 of te counts were RICO related that included 100 separate acts. He was acquitted on ALL those and only found guiltiy on teh bogus bribery charge because the jury couldn’t understand the statute. Know what you are talking about before you pop off, Kool Aid drinker.
Comment by BillyC — February 17, 2008 @ 6:45 pm
BillyC,
You might add that the reason the jury did not understand the statute was that Judge Fuller deliberately misrepresented the nature of the law in his instructions.

Cooper, the amusing thing about the you and those people who tout the line that Don was dirty and was asking for favors his entire political career is that if it was such common knowledge and Don was asking for favors from so many people, then surely there are plenty of individuals willing to come forth with this evidence, right? Or surely one criminal case in the Northern District against him wouldn’t have crumbled would it have, I mean if the evidence was so substantial? Surely there was something more substantial that the alleged quid pro quo between he and Scrushy for a position on the CON board?
Come forward with it. If it’s substantial and compelling evidence, let’s pull old Donnie from that minimum security prison where he’s cleaning toilets and put him in front of a firing squad where he belongs.

This Locust Fork “nut” is the only one getting this story right. So much for being a nut. Why don’t you have the guts to slander Clark Kent under your real name, on his site, slime ball. If you think you are fooling some of the people some of the time, you are flat wrong…

One thing Siegelman’s defenders never get: the witnesses against him were Democrats. How did Riley get Nick Baily and Lanny Young to say Siegelman committed crimes? Boy, that’s some amazing power he must have.

S, the main reason no one can criticize that which is written on the Locust Fork page is that any critical comments are immediately deleted. Not exactly the mark of a man who can strongly defend his ideas.

For debate to occur, there must be some sort of disagreement. It is very hard to find disagreement when those who disagree are erased.
Comment by Will — February 17, 2008 @ 10:14 pm
Lanny Young and Nick Bailey were the guilty ones. They were just milked dry to get Guv. Don and then after they gave all, they were let go years early for being good stoolies. I wonder why?? Was it because they did a good job on lying, stealing, and bribing, but that the fact they gave up “minor infractions” on Guv. Don, the tax payer got screwed again. Nick and Lanny were the ones that committed the the most unlawful acts, and they got off with a slap on the wrist. Don was convicted on something that has occured in every administration since the beginning of time. Scrushy got off on what he should have been found guilty of, and was convicted on something he should have been innocent of. Screwed up justice if you ask me. What about the hundreds of thousands of dollars that have been given to judicial and governor races in the last few years. I guess that was all done just for good government?? I heard a politician say once ” Campaign check in hand results in preferential treatment. No check in hand one only gets good government.

Will, I agree with you about the Locust Fork page. I’ve had my comments deleted more than once when I challenged him on the fact that he is a socialist. I’ve never known such a thin-skinned blogger. I didn’t realize he was still blogging. What a joke.
Comment by Lou — February 17, 2008 @ 10:27 pm
That is just a lie. You’ve never posted a thing. The only thing deleted were stupid, partisan personal attacks. Not sure where you people think you learned blog ethics, but anyone has a right to moderate comments on sites they own. You are just used to unmoderated, anonymous food fights, and somehow you think that has some inherent credibility.
That is just stupid. Credibility comes from many years of doing real journalism under your real name. Anonymous bloggers do not qualify as peer review for this. Obviously, you do not even know what I mean by peer review. You don’t have ANY credibility to disagree or argue with anyone. You are just making slanderous personal attacks and think that has an impact on something, but it means nothing in the real world where reality matters.
If you would visit some real journalism sites, you would see who has consistently been right about the 60 Minutes story and everything else. Danny, the Methodist Preacher, and Tim Lennox, the public TV broadcast journalists, and that other blog reporter who think she knows something about developing sources and investigative journalism, ALL GOT IT WRONG!
This is a question subject to hypothesis testing and empirical evidence. Did the show run tonight? Or did it not? Who got it right? And who got it wrong? Open your freaking eyes!
Do you even have the ability to admit it when you are wrong? No. No wonder other sites are not interested in your comments…

cooper in comment 8,
Liberals didn’t come out swinging. Comment #5 was just a response to the jab in comment #3. You talk about comical though… you want comical? It’s comical when someone talks about liberals having “so many skeletons and crooks in the ranks” when the GOP is the party of the FBI criminal investigation into the falsified internal audit for the NRCC, the party of Jack Abramoff, Michael Scanlon, David Vitter, Coingate in Ohio, Larry Craig, Mark Foley, Tom Delay, Jeff Gannon, on and on, not to mention starting a war under false pretenses… Yep, liberals have so many skeletons and crooks in the ranks.
Yep, I sense “comical,” all right.
Comment by Anonymous — February 17, 2008 @ 11:30 pm
It amazes me when people begin to talk about the corruption of the other party. Both parties have their share of corrupt officials and then their members start pointing fingers as if they have a moral leg to stand on. As far as false pretenses for the war, don’t forget that the Clinton administration and a few European governments thought the same thing the Bush administration did about WMDs. People are always forgetting this when they insist that Bush lied.
Scott Horton would have more credibility if he didn’t base his accusations on the testimony of Simpson. She has modified and expanded her story since its first telling. I should also mention that Gov. Siegalman said parts of her story aren’t true.
Comment by Margaret — February 18, 2008 @ 7:48 am
margaret, if you take the time to actually look at Horton’s blog, you will see that he has gone far beyond the testimony of one individual or one purported piece of evidence.

Calm down, Superman. Yes, Superman, I posted on the Locust Fork site, and yes, you deleted my posts. You certainly have a right to do so, but the fact of the matter is that you do not allow free and open discussion on your blog. Only those who share your views are allowed to voice their own. Don’t you worry, though, I won’t litter your blog with my posts any more. I’ll stay right here with Danny, who beats you to the real stories every time and allows conversation regardless of viewpoint.
Comment by Lou — February 18, 2008 @ 1:31 pm
You mean the real story saying 60 Minutes was running the story yesterday? Right…
No one ever posted anything under the name of Lou, but perhaps that was you under Bill Johnson or one of the other many names for GOP Girl?
Looks like there are two ignorant Republicans here who do not even know what conservative means who post under four or five different names for GOP Girl. It’s not impressive and you are having no effect on public opinion, so who cares? So much for the traffic count.
There is no news here at all, only uninformed commentary. Just another name for unreality, anti-intellectualism and anti-rationality.
Well, as they say, ignorance is bliss…

Glynn,
There are a lot of Republicans on here, as well as Democrats. Why you would refer to me or others as ignorant when you don’t know us is beyond me. It’s apparently typical of you, though. I just read your blog where you declare that the people of Birmingham are the dumbest, most redneck slobs ever. Wow! Name calling and over-generalizations! What an enlightened approach to blogging and discussion! You truly are a smart, smart man who graces the area by your very presence. And I know you have a tremendous effect on public opinion. I mean, goodness, everyone is becoming a socialist, just like you.
Glynn, my comments may not have an effect on anyone (but you, given how angry you’ve gotten), but at least I spend next to no time posting them. You provide an entire website, no doubt spending hours on it day after day. And yet, you’re still irrelevant. The only people who pay attention to you are in the political minority and will always remain so. And, even if I’m wrong and America does become a socialist state like you want, it won’t be because of your website and it won’t be because of anything else you’ve ever done or will do. You have always been irrelevant and you always will be irrelevant.

Wrong again. Wilson sells more blog advertising than not only any blog in this state, but any blog in the American South.
And, with a full boat grant from The Nation Institute to investigate the Siegelman story, he is laughing all the way to the bank.

Glynn, real journalists do not have to explain their credibility. It is derived from their credible reputation. As for you, please continue posting here, as the discussion we are having is certainly more than you would ever allow on your site.
Oh, and we will all be waiting with bated breath for the Siegelman story on 60 Minutes next week. Since your inside source has assured you that it will be airing next week, and since you are never wrong, I am sure we can take this information to the bank.

“Superman” - from a pure content standpoint, I’m pretty sure (and you’ll correct me most likely) this site has more up to the date information and breaking news than yours. And i really don’t want to be mean, but all i’ve seen on your site is Siegelman and birds lately. I prefer other topics, as do a lot of other people obviously. I say obviously because from this article alone, more comments have been generated than i can find on your entire site. And in post #37, did you refer to yourself in 3rd person? that is a little odd - alright then, proceed with the birds…
Comment by cooper — February 18, 2008 @ 7:28 pm
Bill,
What exactly do we disagree about? Do you disagree that 60 Minutes did not run the Siegelman segment yesterday? Answer my earlier question? Did they or didn’t they? That is the subject of this post, and this site WAS WRONG!
Who was right? Can you admit The Locust Fork News and Journal was the ONLY news organization to get it right? PP didn’t. Tim Lennox didn’t. When you admit that, maybe you will be worthy of disagreement.
It is not my job to provide anything for you, but in fact, on a number of recent posts, we have had several long discussions, including one with a libertarian with the Cato Institute in Washington. We had a civil debate about the role of government. Another libertarian from Gulf Shores piped in.
As for Cooper, our category list is 30 issues long, and we actually break news, write features and columns. We had the best story in the country on the recent story about the Bush administration’s mercury rules being struck down by the DC circuit appeals court, which was not covered by the Birmingham Snooze. I don’t see any news on this site, except links to the Newhouse papers in this state and a bunch of anonymous comments. Please point to a real news story being developed here, would you? I’ve never seen one…

No need to badmouth.
But since you asked… There are many stories heard here first, some of them quite significant. But just taking a look at the front page…
On the front page of this blog right now as I type, I see five stories with news and information that could not be found anywhere else.
State Representative’s Office Raided - This one has really been driving some traffic. It’s a story read here first, three days before any other news outlet picked it up. For all I know, they picked it up here.
Bright Expected to Announce for AL-02 in Dale County - Many interested in the AL-02 race have been watching with interest to see if the Democrats’ first choice, Bobby Bright, will run, and if he will run as a Democrat. We had the story first that he does intend to run as a Democrat, and further noted that he is making plans to announce his candidacy in the Wiregrass. No one else has reported this.
New Grand Jury Looks at 2-Year College System - Not a ton of new developments there, but it is new information on an unfolding story.
Helen Hammons contributed a couple of stories with first-hand information and quotes that weren’t available anywhere else: Spot the Loopholes and Byrne Fights Fires.
You can badmouth them, declare your disinterest, what-have-you, but that’s five stories on the front page, with information, news, quotes, not found elsewhere. If I count right, the next page has five more.
By comparison, I scanned three pages on Locust Fork, and besides stories about birds, I did not see any news that could not be found elsewhere.
Comment by Danny — February 18, 2008 @ 9:30 pm
This was referring to original, actual news stories, not just links to the dinky Alabama newspapers.
Do you run corrections when you are wrong like news organizations? The story that is the basis for this post was based on a Tim Lennox blog that turned out to be wrong. Have you admitted that it was wrong and corrected your so-called reporting?
We have now had to write three separate stories in the past two weeks to counter blog rumors on that subject. That’s the only reason I’m here. The rest of it, you are right, does not interest us.
You must have missed our original endorsement of Obama, and this from last week, which we had first. And that was just in the last week.
DC Court Invalidates Bush EPA Mercury Loophole
http://tinyurl.com/3bdcpr
We keep the blog front short so people can digest it. It’s all original content, not just linking to newspapers and commenting on their stories and allowing this anonymous free-for-all.
And, we deep link from the news page to all kinds of stories on the blog interface, mostly the wires - and our own stories.
http://www.locustfork.net/
If you are doing original journalism of some kind, I guess I just missed it, Danny. But you still do not know how to moderate a comments section and prevent personal attacks, libel and defamation. That is one day going to catch up with you.
Not to mention your congregation might like to know your are a political blogger. Maybe Alice Martin might like to know too. Are you using tax free church resources to produce this?
Only in Alabama, I guess. Quite frankly, I am tired of having to vote in churches. It should be unconstitutional.
Now, delete that why don’t you? There is nothing unethical about deleting comments. In fact, it is highly recommended. Most news organizations now refuse to publish them without real names and they moderate the discussion. That is to say, they read the comments before they are posted. It makes for a more informed dialogue and not just a bunch of personal claptrap.
We have experimented with allowing comments anonymously, since some people are shy, but then deleting them when these personal attacks come in by partisans who don’t know what they are talking about. Of course there are bloggers who allow anything, and they do get traffic. But what’s the point of that if you are not trying to capitalize on the traffic.
Your fans like to call me a socialist, but I am making money at it. You?

It’s fascinating to read him here, how bitter and angry he is because no one is listening to him. Quite the clammer out there, huh Glyn, chasing your Jill Simpson conspiracy. You really are pathetic, and what’s worse, it comes out here so clearly. The New York Times won’t even pay you anymore to phone info in. You’re still hurt by Birmingham News turning you down twice for jobs. And you’re struggling along with your irrelevance, shooting off angry emails and blog posts like this to everyone who thinks you’re just an idiot.

Take Bob Martin. He publishes stories that are unfavorable to the Riley agenda. He is now demonized as an obvious tool of the Dems or worse yet, a friend of the Locustfork nutjob.

Unless your goal is to be defrocked and become infamous and stuck being a bad political blogger for the rest of your life, perhaps you will take these comments to heart.

As for Truth, Justice and the American Way, Jill Simpson is the true believer in your state. You can’t handle the truth, and you go along as your political heroes destroy the rule of law by putting the opposition in jail. There is nothing American about that.

I would be interested to read an explanation of the discrepancies in the accounts given by Simpson. First she said Don conceded because of a Klan rally. Don stated that wasn’t true. Then in her statement in Washington, she said there was a deal in which Don was told his legal problems would go away if he conceded. As far as I know, Don never brought this up. Also, she changed her story about Karl Rove. It went from being her understanding that someone might have contacted a person named Karl who might have been Rove to Rove had been contacted and had been instrumental in Seigalman’s indictment.
Also, I would love to know who you think are GOP operatives on here and why Wilson has a monopoly on the truth?

Oh wow, Glyn Wilson, Scott Horton and Bill Horton will have something to do on Sunday night. Maybe Milton McGregot and Stan Pate will have them over to Milton’s place and they can watch it on a big screen.

Bill, where will you and the Rileyites gather to watch it? The Canary home? If Patsy is there I bet you won’t be drinking.
Cheers.
