31 May 2008Gregory Palast is a New York Times-bestselling author and a journalist for the BBC as well as The Observer. His work frequently focuses on corporate malfeasance but has also been known to work with labor unions and consumer advocacy groups.
Notably, he has claimed to have uncovered evidence that Florida Governor Jeb Bush, Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris, and Florida Elections Unit Chief Clay Roberts, along with the ChoicePoint corporation, rigged the ballots during the US Presidential Election of 2000 and again in 2004 when, he argued, the problems and machinations from 2000 continued, and that challenger John Kerry actually would have won if not for disproportional "spoilage" of Democratic votes. His newest book, Armed Madhouse, has been released under a Creative Commons license, sign that the most important thing is to get the word spread.
He's an excellent reporter and a fascinating speaker, very expressive and revealing. His way of dealing with the public is impressive, not very common for somebody who spends most of his time doing real work and research.
