I’m prepping for my KPFK<\/a>\/Pacifica Radio show today, when I’ll be joined by Eugene Iredale, the attorney for former San Diego ACORN worker Juan Carlos Vera who won a $100,000 settlement<\/a> from federal criminal<\/a> and professional liar<\/a> James O’Keefe last week in an invasion of privacy lawsuit (and a $50,000 settlement<\/a> from O’Keefe’s former partner Hannah Giles last summer). You can listen live at 6pm ET \/ 3pm PT right here<\/a>. [Update: Here’s the interview…<\/a><\/em>].<\/p>\n

We will not<\/i> be joined as well by O’Keefe himself, unfortunately, despite my invitations to him after his ‘I’m the victim here!<\/i>‘ tweets last week when news of the settlement broke. He had described<\/a> media coverage of the settlement agreement as “lies and lies and more lies from journafascists” and attempted to taunt the media to “have the guts” to allow him to tell his side of the story. We took him up on that offer and invited him<\/a> to appear on The BradCast<\/i> today, live! Which is impossible to deceptively edit! (You’re welcome, Jimmy!) But until late last night he didn’t “have the guts” to even respond to my generous invitation.<\/p>\n

After a second invite<\/a> last night, however, I finally heard back from him…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“I’ll appear on your show when you retract ‘wiretapping’ lie,” he tweeted<\/a>. <\/p>\n

To which I quickly replied…<\/p>\n
