The article is all about his book, ``Live From Death Row.'' I also say that people wonder why some of us are frustrated with National Public Radio and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, when they use taxpayer's funds. If it had not been for Members of Congress-- in this case, probably taxpayers out there, citizens calling it to our attention--you would have been hearing this cop killer on National Public Radio with commentaries, and they were going to pay him, I think, $120 per commentary. So when we talk about a waste of taxpayers' money and about National Public Radio--which could be an arm of the Democratic party as far as I am concerned--and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, I hope the American people understand the kind of things they are willing to put on the air. This happened to be one of them that was stopped because of a firestorm that developed. But it seems to me that it is another indication that we can probably use that taxpayer money in some more useful way.
