I'd never looked at the Al-Jazeera site before. The article is interesting, I don't usually listen to rap (except when morons drive within a mile of my house with their radio blaring) but I'll have to check out the cut.

It's being reported here too...Forbes...Reuters
Title "Corporate America"
The title track takes Lay to task, saying Enron's failure under his watch made a mockery of the values of respect, integrity, communication and excellence that he espoused.
The record is due out on Dec. 3, the two-year anniversary of the massive layoffs that followed Enron's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing.

“Is Aljazeera.Net the only website you read “
Yes Linda; I just type here without reading! Doh!
I just randomly select other people’s comments and cut’n’paste them here.(A bit like you…LOL)
Just to satisfy you paranoid pro-war, anti-certain-Semite curiosity, I have only discovered their web site in the last week.
Their reporting does seem more honest, accurate and less bias than Fox.. Linda.
They use terms like ‘allegedly’ and ‘unconfirmed’ and actually site sources, and don’t consistently attribute information to ‘undisclosed official representatives’.
Not that I am a linguist, but one doesn’t need a great knowledge of English to see that their grasp of the language is superior to Bush’s too!
The rap song article is certainly a cleverer, more catchy topic tittle than the other American site Helen quoted.
Judging from my brief experience with their site, they also appear to source their information from a wide range, geographically; and therefore do not rely on any particular nation’s bias as some here do! (tunnel vision is not the scientific method)
The Fox news on the AU & US Shootings is somewhat more buried in this story.
Israeli Troops Arrest Militants in Raids is more ambiguous in relation to the shootings and with less detail.
12pole; the Israelis killed some of you on the USS Liberty just for looking (and you accepted it); you would have lost more than 3000 if you had done this to them!
But Why Do They hate US, NO FAIR doh
I think that’s called ‘bring em on’.
Surpriiise, Surpriiiise; No Instructions to kill the Christian and Jewish infidels!
And from the very people who were unfairly kicked out of press meetings and restricted from reporting in Iraq by the US regime.
But they sure did teach them not to humiliate prisoners (oops detainees) in Guantanamo Bay by showing their faces on film
Don’t let facts stand in the way of knowledge.
Read Fox and you will be better informed (NOT), remember we worked that out last week.
If Linda didn’t read vendio, she would still think that nukes have been found in Iraq, and maybe even think that Saddam sold Anthrax to G.W.’s daddy.
Write to you congressman and priest today and demand to have the Aljazeera site blocked from all USA servers.
Who knows, perhaps 2000 American clicks on that site may result in one vote against Bush in the next elections.
Hate to shock some of you KKK or NRA or ‘downright’ religious right extreme nationalists, Linda, Bear & 12 et.al.; but I read today, in an Australian news Paper ‘The Financial Review’ that a Chinese Eunuch Discovered America long before Columbous.
If this is true; Do not alter your opinion because of facts
