LOS ANGELES — May 10 & 11, 2014

The Belasco was built in 1926 and originally seated 1,600 people. It opened to the hit movie “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.”AE911Truth appeared on May 10, 2014, at the United We Stand Festival alongside a couple dozen other truth-and-freedom-oriented speakers and musicians at the historic Belasco Theater in downtown Los Angeles.

Belasco Theater insideThe theater proved to be the perfect, if unplanned, venue for the festival, which had originally been scheduled for UCLA's Pauley Pavilion. Legal maneuverings on the part of UCLA venue administrators caused the event to be cancelled, for dubious reasons, the day before it was scheduled to start, even though payment had already been made to UCLA.

“Do you really want to know what happened on 9/11?” Gage asked, offering clues already provided by the other panelistsThis betrayal severely impacted the dedicated work of United We Stand organizers, led by Christina Tobin (founder of Free and Equal Elections), and rendered them unable to pay for accommodations for the first-time festival's speakers and musicians. As a result, all participants in the event were forced to double up in hotel rooms. One fortunate outcome of the fiasco was that AE911Truth founder Richard Gage, AIA, was "honored" to get to know his weekend "roommate," Ben Swann. The two-time Emmy-winning investigative reporter had covered, with his usual candor and integrity, the AE911Truth-sponsored ReThink911 campaign in New York City last September, the twelfth anniversary of 9/11.

As Jake Tapper’s “The Lead” Dips to New Low with “Coverage” of AE911Truth’s 9/11 Museum Brochure

CNN's The Lead with Jake Tapper It looked just like an infomercial, but with a lot more frowning.

In an example of Orwellian newspeak, the CNN show The Lead with Jake Tapper took on Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth over its decision to distribute information pamphlets outside the National September 11 Memorial and Museum at Ground Zero in New York City. The pamphlets mimic the design of the "official" ones, but instead of the official story, they contain key scientific forensic evidence indicating that the three World Trade Center towers were brought down with explosives and incendiaries. Unlike the official version, the photo on the cover of the AE pamphlet shows the Twin Towers and Building 7.

The Tapper report is a hysterical compendium of all the empty slogans and anti-conspiracy-theory talking points that make up the mainstream media's continuing attack on the 9/11 Truth Movement. It didn't take more than a couple of seconds into the report to see how Tapper was going to play the story.
