Rick Cowles on Nightline!

Rick,

Kudos on your appearance on tonight's Nightline... yes, it was brief, and yes, it was Forrest Sawyer instead of Koppel (who might have challenged John Koskinen a little more), but the show struck me as a step in the right direction toward the mainstream media acknowledging the reality of the issue.

Judging from my experience working for news magazine shows, I'd bet they did a full interview with you which was edited down to a single "bite" for use in the broadcast; I'm curious to hear what else you might have told the Nightline crew that they did not see fit to put on the air...

For those who missed it, (and I thought it was very good, specially the opening segment with Scott Olmsted), here's the transcript http://www.abcnews.com/onair/nightline/transcripts/ntl_981020_trans.html
