9/11 Truth News Wire
Nov. 18th, 2007 -
Canadians Richard Brinkman of Edmonton 9/11 Truth and Wayne Prante of Fraser Valley 9/11 Truth were the guests last Monday Nov. 12th on Kevin Barrett's (GCN radio network) debating 'Civil Information' Activism vs. the 'Civil Disobedience' style of activism that has stirred a lot of controversy within the movement recently. 'Civil Disobedience' was defined as high-profile, aggressive, confrontational, disruptive - not in the classic legal sense of Ghandi and MLK. Civil Information activism on the other is more low key, friendly, sociable and unobtrusive.The debate also focused on the pros and cons of mainstream media attention and on 'being the media'.
Barrett is well known in the movement for being a radio show host with an open mind, who will entertain both sides of any argument. The 'Boy Wonder' however (as his co-host Jim Fetzer of the Dynamic Duo show refers to him) has been a vocal and ardent supporter of the confrontational approach, himself having taken on the likes Sean Hannity on FOX news. Barrett challenged the Canucks often, but the Dynamic Duo of the North countered well and held their own in this debate, making a solid case for "C.I., eh! "
Team Canada was left short-handed however, when Brinkman, in describing his reaction to a statement made recently by a Canadian political leader, uttered the words "Bullshit", not realizing that the show falls under FCC guidelines. The network was not able to bleep Brinkman's blooper, and he received 5 minutes in the penalty box, but fortunately no game misconduct. Brinkmann apologized profusely in typical Canadian fashion while Prante (who set a new personal record for "ya knows") used some Tenacious D to fend off the Boy Wonder's power play. 
Who won the debate? We'll let you decide !
