#3 Oh, yes, another sterling bit of work by Main-Stream-Media.
Thank god for the internet--- a means to counter the railroading of a fairly innocent person.
I guess it's too late to sic a blog-swarm on Walter Winchell, though. Pity about that. He was a slug, and richly deserved it!

The story states that there was no one person that was "Tokyo Rose".

"...Tokyo Rose - the name given by U.S. forces to several different English-speaking female broadcasters of Japanese propaganda."

Yeah, but even the real Tokyo Rose(s) were no worse than today's New York Times. Oh, wait ...
