This is Barrett Brown; Amy Goodman quoted me a while back on the subject of Michael Hastings and journalism. I wanted to bring to your attention a report I put out two weeks ago, for which I wrote an announcement piece on The Guardian's website and which has been discussed a bit via a few other outlets, such as Russia Today and The Nation. The report concerns a complex surveillance apparatus run by an unknown facet of the U.S. military/intelligence community, with the available details coming from the HBGary e-mails. Here's the info: http://wiki.echelon2.org/wiki/Romas/COIN. Let me know if you have any questions.
