#1 "[The interviewer] does ask him at one point about the money "

Ok, so Mikey was angling for the mercenary perspective. I wonder why the footage was rejected.

#2 Probably said he wasn't making any.

#3 I would say Fat Mikey didn't use the interview cause it didn't fit in with his"Hate everything Bush"agenda.

#4 I would say Mikie didn't want to show any 'rebuilding efforts' at all -- at least not from someone who wasn't a carpetbagger ( or: making a killing off the poor Iraqi's). And since Nick wasn't making a lot of money (if any) at the time of production.

I'm sure if Jabba had known that Nick would be beheaded he would certainly have used the footage (as well as Nick's father to blame it on Bush). Mikie might yet.

#5 This gets stranger and stranger. Earlier, we learned that Nick has "let a terrorist use his email account -- ON A BUS!" (Like there's wireless access on this bus).

Now learn that Papa and Mama Berg are off on vacation. How many parents would go off on vacation after their son is brutally murdered?

#6 I can understand the parents taking a 'vacation'. Just getting away from the media circus for a while would help them grieve.

I do agree though, that this is a strange story. There is much that we haven't been told.
