- I only allow myself a little snippet of thEwIndBag's show each day, after
- all, I have a heart condition.
-
- Today he allowed as how he'd heard somewhere that Rev. Jackson was calling
- for demonstrations in the spring if Governor Clinton doesn't live up to
- Rev. Jackson's expectations. I have access to the AP newswire and so I
- looked for myself. I didn't find this statement (that doesn't mean he
- didn't make it, however). I did find reference to Jackson's viewing the
- film "Malcolm X." which thEwIndBag hinted that Rev. Jackson had skipped on
- purpose. Here follows the text of the update I sent to thEwIndBag on his
- Compu$erve account:
-
- >>Here is what I could find on the wire with respect to any news about Rev.
- Jesse Jackson in Birmingham. I couldn't find any reference to marching in
- the streets if Clinton fails. As you can see, it's just the copy
- associated with the television news clip fed over NewsOne. But you could
- send someone from the EIB building to the ABC building for whatever wire
- copy they have on the story (wink wink, nudge nudge)

- me again. Please notice that I am playing along with thEwIndBag's fantasy

- rents studio space from WABC but don't tell the limbots, OK?
