For what it’s worth, I just received a call from The Planet’s general counsel concerning the trouble ticket I placed inquiring about the Channel 11 story accusing them of hosting terrorist sites… What he said is that The Planet was actively cooperating with an FBI investigation which was monitoring the sites in question. What he said is that both The Planet and the FBI repeatedly asked Channel 11 not to run the story so they could continue to gather information, but they decided to run it, in The Planet’s words, “because it was during sweeps.”  Without spending the time and energy contacting the FBI and being told that they cannot comment on it… it’s impossible to know whether this is true or not. However, since it was quite a topic for a couple of days, I thought you all should at least hear their response.
