Edward Asner

Edward Asner is an angry old man for serious reasons.
  • Ed Asner

"Alex returns to the airwaves with an interview of film, television, and stage actor Ed Asner, who will talk about the current state of national and world affairs. Asner is famed for his portrayal of Lou Grant, the hard-bitten newspaper editor on the popular television series of the same name. Asner is the only actor to win Emmys for both Comedy and Drama. His show was pulled from CBS after he signed a letter seeking to raise funds for medical aid to rebels in El Salvador in 1982..." www.infowars.com , http://www.septembereleventh.org/alerts/asner.php , http://www.infowars.com/ed-asner-tv-ad-promotes-ae911truth/

Alex also talked with Ed a little about JFK & the movie.

"Edward Asner as Guy Banister, a career member of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and a private investigator. He was an avid anti-communist, member of the Minutemen, the John Birch Society, Louisiana Committee on Un-American Activities, and publisher of the Louisiana Intelligence Digest" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JFK_(film)#Cast

"All of these steps caused him to be regarded as a virtual traitor by elements of the military-intelligence community. These were the forces that planned and carried out his assassination. Kennedy himself said, in 1962, after he read Seven-Days-in-May, which is about a military coup in the United States, that if he had another Bay of Pigs, the same thing could happen to him." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/oliver-stone/jfk-and-the-unspeakable_b_243924.html
