You won't see THIS on TV!
Joel Johnson, editor of Boing Boing Gadgets, completely rulez the first take of this TV interview, the Hugh Thompson Show, sponsored by, and delivered to you by . . . AT&T!
He asked a friend to film it. Good thing too, cause you'll NEVER see this on any mainstream medium! Not even a non-AT&T sponsored show. The interview was scrubbed half way through.
I think this is almost as good as when John Stewart told Tucker Carlson to get a life on national TV.

Hat tip to Bob Frankston for this pointer!

I got your post of this before I got to Boing Boing's because Isen Blog is farther up my RSS feed list. Really fascinating to see the original version. Is there a link to to final version of the interview? Just for comparison.
I have been watching, reading, posting and talking to my clients about this debate for quite some time and thought you might find these links interesting:
