image004Edition #40 (published on March 5, 1991) of the original printed edition of The Whistleblower (not the Newswire) was delivered to Persons of Consequence all over town. That Week’s “Really Big Story” was all about Ellen Lambing, the Orange Ribbon Lady. The Top Ten List was the top ten things we’d miss about watching the war, and Bagdad Peter Arnett’s Excuses Along The Euphrates.There was a Real Editorial by Whistleblower Publisher Charles Foster Kane (before he became “Beloved”), more “Real Facts,” and a Restaurant Review by Sara Lee Pearce featured Izzy’s, back before the food got to be really crappy.image007
