I would like to see Seymour Hersh expand more on Dick Cheney's time in office in 2012...

Audience Question: Why are we accepting what the American government is telling us what happened on September 11, 2001 at face value, when it's all over the Internet that it could not possibly have happened without help from the inside, especially the building called number seven that fell for no reason at all! (audience applause).

Heather Mallick: "So did everyone hear that, the question is why have we accepted the official explanation for September 11, the American explanation?, Well it's very interesting because even Seymour Hersh who I trust more than any journalist in the world says " I don't know what happened on 9/11?". I'm not sure but I think the main reason why we accept that version is because there is no one out there in mainstream journalism giving us any information on that, we are just told what governments and corporations want us to hear, we rely on corporate sources of information. In Canada our newspapers are owned by for instance Globe and Mail is owned by CTV, Global ( PostMedia) owns newspapers published across the country...I still can't believe that that is true...it's talking to me, but your never going to get alternative views of current affairs and of history as long as the means of transmitting information is so corporately owned."
