Best-selling author and Washington Times reporter Bill Gertz will
join WorldNetDaily.com Editor Joseph Farah, columnists David Hackworth,
Geoff Metcalf and J.R. Nyquist, Judicial Watch Chairman Larry Klayman
and House Manager James Rogan, R-Calif., in WorldNetDaily’s first public
conference — “The New Media to America’s Rescue” Sept. 17-19 in Los
Angeles.
Internet personality Matt Drudge is also considering an appearance at
the conference which is being held at the Hilton Universal.
WorldNetDaily organized the conference in the wake of President
Clinton’s action easing the rules on the export of high-tech computers
and other technology to China — despite recent revelations of Chinese
espionage, U.S. security breakdowns and administration cover-ups.
In the past year it has been Klayman, a “pit bull for truth
practicing guerrilla law,” as Farah has described him, whose relentless
filing of Chinagate lawsuits against the government did so much to
expose the scandal. More recently, Gertz published “Betrayal: How the
Clinton Administration Undermined American Security” to both critical
and popular acclaim — achieving best-seller status within weeks.
Says Klayman, “Increasingly today’s political battles are being
fought with tomorrow’s technology. The Internet, electronic mail and
other tools of cyberspace are taking on an ever-greater role and
importance. That’s why we need to not only keep up with the latest
technology, but use it effectively.”
The conference will analyze the New Media as a tool for spearheading
journalistic, political, ethical and legal reform, using Chinagate as a
practical case study of what can be achieved. As Klayman told
WorldNetDaily on Independence Day, “George W. Bush’s announcement during
his trip to Silicon Valley that high-tech export barriers to China
should be lowered shows that the Chinagate scandal will survive long
beyond the next elections. Democrats and Republicans have looked the
other way with regards to the actions of their big donors in breaching
U.S. national security.”
The conference will kick off Friday night, Sept. 17th, with a VIP
cocktail party followed by Saturday’s all-day program of speakers and a
ceremony at which Bill Gertz will be presented with an award for
excellence in investigative journalism. On Sunday, Sept. 19, the
conference will close with a champagne brunch and Q&A session with Bill
Gertz and other speakers. To make participation possible for the
greatest number of people, WorldNetDaily is offering three levels of
attendance:
1) For $50 you may attend either Friday night’s or Sunday morning’s

2) For $139 you get Saturday’s packed all-day program of speakers —
