"Watt says the EPA are Nazis.  Don't laugh.  It's true."

It's NOT TRUE.  The exact wording that Watt used is known and THAT IS NOT
WHAT HE SAID.  Since I don't know the exact wording, I won't try to para-
phrase it, but I'm sure you can find it in the newspaper.  I heard it on
All Things Considered, in a remarkable report.  They started out by saying
Watt said the EPA were Nazis, gave the exact quotation - in which he actually
didn't say this - and then AGAIN said that he called the EPA Nazis.

The issue here is NOT Watt or his opinions; it's accurate reporting.  People
are just looking for statements by Watt to jump on, and lord knows he
generates enough of them.  But that's no excuse to jump on him for what he
DIDN'T say.
