Yes dear............. ...And, it was no doubt hosted by the Skull & Bones in a secret chamber 200' below the Washinton Monument. ..You, too, can get in - if you wear your Official MIB outfit and know the secret handshake...

You really ought to go chase some real "..Insider Commodites Trading & Matsturbation Handbook distribution by Slick and the (W)itch..", whenever you tire of reading fiction.

Here's another site where you can download the documentary in 4 parts instead of having to download the whole 41 MB at once. I watched the first 2 but had trouble with the third and haven't went back to try again yet.

propagandamatrix.com

Scroll down on the page and it shows a couple of headlines from when the scandal was going on and the author of a book on the subject gives some more details about it.
__________

here's the first part of the story, more at the link.
-------

In mid-1993, after The Franklin Cover-Up had been circulating for almost a year, the British-based TV station, Yorkshire Television, sent a top-notch team to Nebraska to launch its own investigation of the Franklin case. Yorkshire had a contract with the Discovery Channel to produce a documentary on the case for American television.

They spent many months in Nebraska, and also travelled this country from one end to the other, interviewing, filming, and documenting piece-by-piece the Franklin story as I had told it in the book. They spent somewhere between a quarter-million and one-half million dollars investigating the story, deploying probably a thousand times the resources and abilities that I personally had.

Over the year that I worked with them, I was amazed at the team’s ability to gather new documents and witnesses which kept opening up new and frightening facts about Franklin. They were a crack team. In the final weeks that they were in Nebraska, they expressed their certainty that they would win awards for this documented horror story of government-sanctioned abuse of children; and government protection of some of this country’s most powerful businessmen and politicians, who had been the chief acts in the Franklin story.

Finally, the big day came. Their documentary was to air nation-wide on the Discovery Channel on May 3, 1994. It was advertised in the TV Guide and in newspapers for that day. But no one ever saw that program. At the last minute, and without explanation, it was pulled from the air. It was not shown then, and has never been broadcast anywhere since.
