Earth Changes TV (ECTV) Covers the Talk Show Wars
1999-07-10 07:45:29
The "Earth Changes TV" web site, which bills itself as "the site for people who are interested in the unknown yet have an intuition that 'something big is about to happen'," has a new weblog-like page covering the Talk Show Wars! Yet ANOTHER good site tracking the conflict between Art Bell and his former guests, as well as the many other parties involved.
Earth Changes TV is actually a television show carried on cable channels around the country, produced by a guy named Mitch Battros. It's about wonky stuff -- UFOs, Nostradamus, Y2K, ESP, and especially weird "earth changes," such as earthquakes, extremeley bad weather, and the Earth just generally blowing up.
But Mitch Battros and his associates have put together a DYNAMITE new page with editorials, letters, articles, as well as links to relevant information and underground web message boards focusing on the Bell-Oates-Stephens conflict. They have even published reformatted versions of some of our articles (I guess we don't mind considering that they gave us full credit and link).

Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
