Message-ID: Date: 26 Nov 90 14:28:29 GMT Sender: slavitch@spock Organization: Mitel Corporation, 350 Legget Drive, Kanata, Ontario. K2K 1X3. Lines: 21 Tuesday night a Bill Moyers Frontline Special will present evidence that both Ronald Reagan and George Bush had full knowledge of the arms dealings in the Iran Contra scandal. Part of the evidence is EMAIL sent between Poindexter, North and others containing minutes of meetings with Reagan and Bush. It seems that the nightly backups done on the White House computer system kept the messages from being electronically shredded. Luckily, none of the Iran-Contra bunch were UNIX wizards. Much of the documentry will cover how congress and the media was asleep during the whole affair. According to Moyers, the information obtianed by and for him in the last 3 years would have been enough to impeach Reagan if it would had been revealed earlier in the scandal. He is critical of himself and the rest of the media on the laziness with which the story was covered. Interesting watching. -- Michael Slavitch, aka: Zvpunry Fynivgpu, nxn: Michael_Slavitch@Mitel.COM Zvpunry_Fynivgpu@Zvgry.PBZ slavitch@Software.Mitel.COM fynivgpu@Fbsgjner.Zvgry.PBZ uunet!mitel!spock!slavitch hharg!zvgry!fcbpx!fynivgpu
