Secret Service shuts down Michael Moore interviews

This is a transcript of the broadcast the General describes in his
letter
http://patriotboy.blogspot.com/2004_08_01_patriotboy_archive.html#109392876844225602.

1st clip begins at 31:19


NPR Reporter Andrea Seabrook:

Hello Frank. I'm standing here with Michael Moore, the filmmaker who
made Fahrenheit 911. Mr. Moore, why are you here?

Michael Moore:

I'm here writing a guest column each day for USA Today.

Seabrook:

OK, so you have credentials to...

Secret Service Agent Come around here

Seabrook:

I'm going to have to join him. They're kicking me out of this exact
area but I can go around to...They just asked me to come around to the
other side here.

NPR Convention Anchor Fred Stachio (phonetic spelling):

Andrea Seabrook on the floor with Michael Moore.

Seabrook:

[unintelligible]

Stachio:

I know you're still there. I just want to be sure that you can still
hear us while your being moved, Andrea.

Seabrook:

Well, well I'm not...the Secret Service has blocked off that area.
They're calling it a...a hazard because of the number of people who
are a gathered around him. There aren't that many people, but the
Secret Service won't let me around him anymore, so I think a the
access to him might be cut off for a moment. We'll try to get back
with him.


2nd clip begins at 39:55


Seabrook:

Yes, I am in the middle of a...you might be able to hear the Secret
Service yelling into my mic at the same time. There, there are a bunch
of Secret Service that have surrounded Michael Moore's section. There
are three or four reporters with him right now, but they are trying to
kick all of the reporters and press photographers who are around him
out of his area. The convention staff is also here. They're standing
here telling us that we have to move from this are...they're obviously
disturbed by the fact that Michael Moore is here and want as little
public here as possible.

Stachio:

Can we hear? Can we hear what's going on? Can you stick a mic in
there? I don't know if we can hear.

Seabrook:

Yeah...ah...eh...they've sort of moved me away from that area.

Stachio:

I don't understand. Who is it? Is it Secret Service?

Seabrook:

It's Secret Service which is interesting because the Secret Service of
all agencies is the one that remains...is the least involved in the
sort of political...political kinds of things, but of course they
always cover the candidates and they have to be involved in the
convention like this. They claim that what they're doing is for safety
reasons, although there is a almost nobody around Michael Moore right
now. So a we'll see if I can a...

Secret Service Agent:

[crosstalk] thank you very much

Seabrook:

Yeah, I'm being herded back in four different ways right now.

I am unable to listen to your audio. Some Frenchman might have
tinkered with it. I get a messgage "error on page" when attempting to
listen to it.

General Sir,

It is surely a sign from God. He does not want us to have anything to
do with the heathen Michael Moore. After all MM has blasphemed against
the Anointed One.

General's inner frenchman,

I an sorry. I should have address you directly. My bad. How rude of
me.

By bushburner, at 6:48 AM

I was listening to that on NPR last night and just couldn't believe
it! What gall! Sheesh, was he carrying a loaded camera or
something????

Thanks for publicizing this. I think it is really important for people
to be aware of these things.
