RIGHT CLICK AND SAVE to download the AUDIO episode of THE MINORITY REPORT: BENOIT TRAGEDY 6/25/07 CLICK HERE to access previous episodes for all the shows The following synopsis was originally written by Don Tony immediately following the live recording of this episode on June 25, 2oo7. Monday night June 25, 2007 at 11:15PM EST, we commenced our Minority Report Webcast. The show ran almost four hours and was one of the most surreal, emotional experiences we have encountered live in real time. Yours truly (Don Tony), Kevin Castle, Joey 9:24 and Smoked Out originally planned to stream a tribute episode for Chris Benoit, and pay our respects to wife Nancy and son Daniel. However as the show went on 'in real time', so many details started to emerge surrounding their deaths. Ultimately during the show, the Double Murder-Suicide was confirmed. As it happened, the emotion from over a thousand fans listening live, chat room visitors, and us the hosts turned to anger. Then WWE started to remove tributes from their website. Then a huge debate sparked on the show. Should we be paying any type of tribute to a murderer. How the f*** do you murder your 7 year old son? Noone celebrates OJ Simpson's football career anymore. He is labeled simply as a double murderer. Sadly, I have to treat Chris Benoit the same way. You cannot find fault with WWE airing the 3 hour tribute. They had no clue at the start of their show that it was a double murder-suicide. I'm sure some had that possible scenario in the back of their minds. It was too coincidental that Benoit stays home for a 'family emergency', and then they all end up deceased? Speculation ran rampant Monday night as to why this occurred. We came up with the possibility of extra marital affairs. Medical issues with the family. One thing is for certain. There isn't any good ending to this story. Nothing whatsoever that could even remotely explain what led to this tragedy could allow me to nod my head and say 'yeah, I can understand better why one would do this'. There is no excuse to commit murder. And that innocent 7 year old child bothers me more than anything. Chris Benoit was a great wrestler; he is in the top 5 during our generation. He was a champion at wrestling. But he jobbed out to life. No matter what, it is disgusting what he did, and all respect and appreciation for Chris Benoit went out the window. I cringe reading comments on how he was a great family man. You dont get 'credits' for being a family man up until June 23, 2007 then commit double murder. He murdered his family. For me, all respect and family man references go right out the window. Major news organizations have picked up this story online and in print. However TV News channels will ultimately sensationalize this story. It has all the aspects of one that will be covered quite a bit on television. And of course there are others in the news field that are chomping at the bit, waiting to learn if Benoit had any substances in his system. Like many, I am floored as to why this happened. Especially why someone who was truly looked up to by so many and perceived as such a family man can do this. Every single person should listen to this episode. I assure you at one point or another, every emotion that every person has felt about this tragedy was brought to the surface. Countless numbers of fans all throughout the world vented. And those who downloaded this show early have sent an overwhelming amount of appreciation for this show. It seems many want us to be the voice in their ears on this matter. We addressed every single question you all will have, I guarantee it. Should WWE still air Benoit matches on WWE.com and 24/7? Should any tributes still take place? Is it wrong to watch Benoit matches? Should he be inducted in WWE Hall Of Fame? Could this have been premeditated? Did he murder his son so he wouldn't have to go thru life knowing his father killed his mother? Could there have been warning signs? Will some try to humanize Chris Benoit's actions? Will WWE be blamed if steroids are discovered? It's an episode I will never forget personally, and one I wish we never have had to do.

It's been said often, and history shows, that before there can be radical change in society, there must first be a collapse of the old order. We are potentially at such a rare moment, when the combination of an historic pandemic and a global economic unravelling has left us contemplating what transformations may lie ahead. We can ask whether the United States will emerge domestically with a better health care system and more equitable economy; with a totalitarian police state; or whether the nation will revert to the status quo ante. But change may not only be afoot at home for the U.S., but also abroad, an abroad dominated by the United States since the end of the Cold War. Hosts Elizabeth Vos and Joe Lauria lead a discussion of the geopolitical ramifications of the Covid-19 crisis with our guests: Journalists Patrick Lawrence and Gareth Porter, and former Australian ambassador Tony Kevin.
Featuring George Bebbe, former head of CIA Russia desk; Ray McGovern, former CIA Russia analyst; Mark Sleboda, Moscow-based analyst; Scott Ritter, former UN Weapons Inspector; Tony Kevin, former Australian diplomat in Russia; & Consortium News journalist, Patrick Lawrence.
Russian line guard march prior to a military parade in Moscow. Yuri Kochetkov/EPATony Kevin first went to the Soviet Union in 1969. He was 25 years old and working in the Australian Embassy in Moscow at the peak of the Cold War. Embassy staff were told to be aware that every discussion was probably being recorded, and that they should avoid any interactions with locals. Forty-eight years later he returned to Russia and found a very different country from the one he left. In his new book, Return to Moscow, Kevin describes the changes in Russian society since the fall of the Soviet Union and the rise of Vladimir Putin. The political and societal differences are stark. William Isdale spoke to Kevin about his new book, his memories of living in Russia and why he thinks so much distrust and fear of the nation still exists in the West.
