I have a few ideas and I know some good editors who I'm hopeful will show
some spine and step up to the plate. There is a substantial public interest
in publishing... But the fact we are dealing with one of the world's largest
defense firms doesn't help -- especially not in the States. It's been quite
an eye-opener, let me tell you. The chilling effect is quite extraordinary
and deeply concerning.

Anyway, fingers crossed I'll get something worked out.

I guess I'm not really surprised. Although a very strong precedent has
been established by virtue of the widespread publication of the
materials emanating from the HBGary grab, to say nothing of everything
Wikileaks has done with its partner publications, few outlets are
willing to take risks on these things. I'm sorry that you're having
difficulty with this, but hopefully you'll have better luck elsewhere.
In such a case as I can of any further help, let me know.

Barrett,

Apologies for the lengthy delay with this Raytheon piece. The thing was
written weeks ago but has been hindered by all kinds of editorial
wrangling
and now legal issues. I didn't realize the severity of the copyright
implications and I've been held up significantly by the fact that
Raytheon
does not want these videos in the public domain.

I've concluded tonight that a fairly drastic solution is required: I'm
going
to have to move the story from the States to a publisher in the UK.
Tomorrow
I'm going to send a few emails. I'll keep you updated.

Again, sorry for the delay. I assure you I'm doing all I can.

Hope all's well with you,

Ryan
