On tonight's show I think they were talking about Edward Jay Epstein. I recently read this article by him in the WSJ about the Amerithrax investigation:

The article also mentions that he is working on a book on the 9/11 Commission.

As mentioned here.
It seems Mr Epstein would like to infiltrate and ultimately obfuscate
research into 9/11 much the same way he has in the JFK case.
BTW
given all the debate about the relative merits of Jim DiEugenio's
contributions to Black Op Radio, this show was Exhibit A in Jim's
defense. Just a devastating Exposé of Edward Jay Epstein by Jim
DiEugenio.

Last summer, Tina Brown's title riled up the right with its controversial cover photo of Michele Bachmann. The magazine's current issue immediately did the same. It features a story by writer Andrew Sullivan about President Obama. The cover headline? "Why Are Obama's Critics So Dumb?"
The article is a bit more nuanced. Sullivan writes that "Obama has
delivered in a way that the unhinged right and purist left have yet to
understand or absorb." Even so, conservatives pounced. "If in recent
years it seems as if Newsweek has been descending into self-parody,
it's still hard to imagine that this is real," a writer for the Weekly
Standard wrote. The Instapundit blog also mocked the choice of photo for the cover, saying, "He looks terrible, and surprisingly like Jimmy Carter, even down to the downturned liverish lips and incipient jowls."
Appearing on MSNBC's "Hardball," Sullivan defended his story, saying
he was simply telling the truth about Obama, whom he described as a
"sensible, pragmatic centrist."

Harris was feted in New York on publication day last week at a party hosted by The Daily Beast/Newsweek editor-in-chef Tina Brown and her husband, Harold Evans. The British novelist tells USA TODAY that Paul Greengrass (The Bourne Ultimatum) will direct the 20th Century Fox production. "No cast yet," says Harris, adding that if all goes well, filming on The Fear Index will begin in about a year.
