I recently sent a piece about 9/11 to a few friends. The story involved a former air traffic controller, Robin Hordon, who has gone public on his assertion that 9/11 was an inside job.
One friend, James Longo, replied: "I thought about forwarding this but then I couldn't think of anyone who wouldn't either agree totally, or claim I was a left wing conspiracy theorist."
I know what he means. I'm no longer writing for one online magazine, primarily because the editor was so uncomfortable when I wrote a piece pointing out that 9/11 was an inside job.
He grudingly ran it, but wrote an editor's reply to a letter in the following issue that said, in effect, that I was his resident nut about 9/11 and didn't know what I was talking about. Even good leftwingers are afraid to face the truth.
Last piece I wrote for him.
