CREDENTIALED COLUMNIST’S DEATH MAKES WAVES IN NEWS AND CONSPIRACY COMMUNITIES

NEW YORK (INTELLIHUB) — David Carr, 58, a columnist for the New York Times, fell out dead in his office Thursday just after interviewing NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden in a “Times Talks” episode which was captured on video via Google Hangouts.

Before Carr’s death he was said to have drawn out candid conversation with the whistleblower Snowden about the release of secret documents and also touched on the new film “Citizenfour”.

During the interview Snowden gave information to Carr about a secret NSA encryption program. Moments later a clip of Citizenfour was also shown in which Snowden, who sitting in bed at a hotel room at the time, was being interviewed by a journalist as fire alarms kept going off, promptly alerting Snowden to unplug his room phone.

Carr joined the New York Times in 2002 where his column “Media Equation” was typically posted in the Monday business edition.

Carr’s coworkers were shocked of his death and said that he was “special”, a “gifted” journalist with lots of “talent”.

Carr also had a book published in 2008, which he worked on for three years, titled “The Night of the Gun” which talked about his previous struggles with cocaine and how he eventually became a good father to his daughters and a columnist for the Times.

According to Tom McElroy with the AP, Carr was even teaching a “Boston University class that explored the creative business models to support digital journalism” as he was quite the busy guy.

Carr’s death will now likely be a hot topic amongst the conspiracy community as Snowden was also responsible for leaking sensitive information about at least one “flying saucer” or UFO incident.

Thank you for posting this.

Is it just me, or is anyone else having problems with the OP links? i.e. "Server not found"

Many thanks for this important piece of news. I've fixed the links (and some of the formatting) in the Original Post.

After my uncle's friend Tom Derieux dropped dead, being a civilian electrical engineer for the US Navy's secret crap,
I started wondering about strange things.

The man liked to talk, and 50 is kind of a strange age to die. IMO.

Thanks for posting this.

Do you guys remember Jesse Ventura's show CONSPIRACY THEORY?
He interviewed Fred Bell about the WTC and Death Ray theory,
and the man died within 3 days wasn't it?

RIP

Scientist Dies During Death Ray Investigation

From Issue: Volume XX - Number 24
11/30/2012

By Steve Propes

At most, the sudden death of a rocket scientist and environmental entrepreneur might have attracted the notice of some in the professional community, but in the case of Dr. Fred Bell, it was the seemingly final act on the stage of a media-driven conspiracy investigation.

The media aspect was a Discovery Channel series, “Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura,” former governor of Minnesota and proponent of the theory that the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center towers was literally an inside job. Now he wonders if the cause was a so-called Death Ray as a result of an investigation begun by Bell.

I knew David. He smoked still and abused crack cocaine earlier in life.
Like many creative souls he fought demons.
The drugs and smoking did too much physical damage to his heart, but never harden it creatively.
He died in the newsroom, just where he loved to be.

Nothing else to see here. Thanks

The powers that be can kill you in a room full of people if they want too, and make death look like a heart attack. They have directed energy laser like weapons that can fry the blood vessels inside your heart and make it look it's natural. Their equipment has antigravity and stealth, as well as drone characteristics. I saw this thing in action. They are killing machines. This is just a sample of the robotics to be used in the future by the same people.

Btw, It is supposed that the same people that killed Dr. Bell, threatened Jesse Ventura.

Hi,

amazing good interview of David Carrs. Shame that he is not among us in the physical. He was a good person.
Also much respect to citizenfour makers Laura Poitras, Glenn Greenwald and of course Edward Snowden.

The ink to the NY times interview is http://new.livestream.com/nytimes/events/3800646

I hope they ( nytimes ) don't change the interview's url.

Greetings,

Ries
