__Investigative Reporter Greg Palast Will Tell His Story On The Meria Heller
Show

Greg Palast is one of the last true investigative reporters. He discovered the
smoking gun used by the Bush team in their theft of the Florida election.
Palast reported in "The Nation" that a firm hired by Katherine Harris purged
thousands of African Americans -- and therefore likely Gore voters -- from the
voter registry. Mr. Palast has also reported on the energy problems in
California as a result of deregulation and price gouging by the energy sector.
Lately, Mr. Palast's newspaper -- the London Observer --is being sued by
Barrick Gold Mining for Palast's story about Barrick's human rights abuses in
Tanzania. Palast also described how Barrick paid only $10,000 for $10 billion
worth of gold mine rights, thanks to a deal finessed by the previous Bush
administration. After leaving office, Bush Sr. was put on the Barrick payroll.
