The New Phase for Sibel Edmonds’ Boiling Frogs Post
Tuesday, 23. February 2010 by Sibel Edmonds
In October 2009 I launched Boiling Frogs Post with one purpose in mind: To establish a venue for investigative articles, editorials, analyses, discussions, and interviews on issues largely censored and blacked out by the media. After four months of a successful trial phase this venue is now ready to enter its next stage, and for that it needs your support.
Boiling Frogs Post is solely dependent on its readers, and has no ties to any institution, foundation, organization or corporation. This is the only model I see fit to be called an independent news and views venue, untainted by external pressures, special interests or partisan flavoring.
Our authors and analysts present their work, not agenda scripts or special recipes handed to them for creation of a particular propaganda to serve a particular interest. And, our weekly commercial-free Podcast Show hosts the voices of noteworthy guests on topics long-muffled and quashed by the mainstream media and their minions on lower levels posing as alternatives.
I’m happy to report that in the four months since the launching of Boiling Frogs Post we have accomplished and delivered every single objective set prior to the launching this site. I am proud to have established a distinguished team of journalists, analysts, authors, and an editorial cartoonist whose work is based on truth and real issues.
Whether it is going after hypocrisy-ridden foreign policy practices, the ever revolving doors of foreign lobbies, or our stomped upon and continuously assaulted civil liberties, our work transcends the webs put in place by partisanship and special interests and agendas. Here are a few examples of our work:
- Sibel Edmonds- The Makings of a Police State Series
- Dr. Nafeez Ahmed- Yemen, Energy Crisis & the Nigerian Crutch Bomber Series
- Mizgin Yilmaz- Richard Armitage Series
- Dr. William Weaver – The Impulse to Secrecy: The Glomar Response
- Peter Lance: Fort Hood & the KSM Trial Series
- Sibel Edmonds- Op-ed Series
In this short time span the Boiling Frogs Show has been able to present you with over 20 distinguished experts and whistleblowers from the fields of journalism, intelligence, grassroots activism, academia, and foreign policy. Here is a list of select interviews:
- James Bamford on NSA & Illegal Domestic Wiretapping
- Pepe Escobar on the Current Energy Crisis & the Quest for Central Asia-Caspian Region
- Russ Baker on the Concept of Shadow Government and the Real Power Centers in the US
- Daniel Ellsberg on Obama Presidency & Whistleblowers
- Andy Worthington on America’s Detention Center at Guantanamo Bay
- Chris Hedges on the US Media & the Empire of Illusion
- Coleen Rowley on Accountability, Whistleblowers & Activism
I believe during this four-month trial phase Boiling Frogs Post has established a solid track record with what it has accomplished, and a view of what it can accomplish given your support and backing. We are now ready to begin our next phase, during which we will continue to provide what you have seen, read, and listened to thus far, and additionally, will present exclusive video clips and investigative stories.
This site will continue and expand only with your direct support. I am asking every one of you to consider yourself as the one who can make this possible, that without your active support this real alternative site will not continue or exist, and that without your help those who consider truly independent channels like this ‘impossible to survive and flourish’ will be proven right, and with that we will all lose. So please do your share, and contribute whatever you can now.
Our countdown to receive your support and donations begins today. No donation is either too small or too large. Please donate what you can to keep this home of the irate minority alive, and thank you for all you do.
