Summary:
Investigative researcher Charles Lewis and Army Corps of Engineers spokesperson Lt. Col. Gene Pollack on this edition of Fresh Air. Charles Lewis is the founder and executive director of the Center for Public Integrity. It's a nonprofit, nonpartisan research organization in Washington, D.C., similar to an investigative journalism outfit but without time and space constraints. Its mission is to expose corruption and power abuse by governments, corporations and individuals. Lewis will talk about the ties between members of the Bush Administration and the defense industry, and questions of conflict of interest regarding lucrative contracts to rebuild Iraq. For eleven years, Lewis was an investigative reporter at ABC news, and also worked at CBS on 60 Minutes. Lt. Col. Gene Pollack responds to concerns about conflict of interest in awarding army contracts to private companies. Pollack explains how the Army Corps of Engineers gave contracts to put out oil fires in Iraq to Kellogg Brown and Root (KBR), a subsidiary of Halliburton. Vice President Dick Cheney was the CEO of Halliburton after he left his job as Secretary of Defense and before he became VP. (Broadcast Date: June 17, 2003)
