  • Wayne Barrett on Rudy Giuliani

    Reporter Wayne Barrett rocked the Rudy Giuliani presidential campaign by showing that the "9/11 Candidate" was actually tied politically to the terrorist Khalid Sheik Muhammad (KSM), the mastermind of the Sept. 11 attack. Giuliani was obtaining security contracts through the Minister of Interior in Qatar, a man named Abdallah bin Khalid, who is known to have harbored KSM and even tipped him about an FBI raid so he could escape.

  • The Lush Life of Rudy Appointee

    An investigation by the Village Voice revealed that the aide of former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani "had been on a virtual non-stop spending splurge while serving as head of a city agency dedicated to creating affordable housing. The aide, Russell Harding, is the son of Giuliani's political mentor, Liberal Party leader, Raymond Harding. The Village Voice learned of the younger Harding's spending habits three months after Giuliani left office, when the paper "succeeded in obtaining a long-denied Freedom of Information request."
