If I remember correctly about ten-twelve years or so ago it was revealed thah the NY Times reporter who won a Pulitizer prize for his coverage of the 'famine' was exposed as having not only been aware of what was going on but wa actively involved in promoting the deception and his award was revoked (not that it mattered much fifty years later) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP for Personal Privacy 5.0 Charset: noconv iQA/AwUBNHdCncdZgC62U/gIEQJIHgCfXYknNpEmLUyGkZk0/hsDOQtGVgMAnAiw xmeSWqQOdcPtGiGt4Y2aMSsd =UX27 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Brian B.

I recall reading "The book of lists" by Wallechinski/Wallace (sorry, I threw it out and no longer have the exact reference). One of the categories was "10 biggest U.S. media deceptions". Wallace claimed that the Hearst organization manufactured the news of the artificial famine in the 1930s and used the pictures from the tzarist era famines. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
