Each week we will have one of four distinguished members from GATA to update KWN listeners on what is happening in the world of gold as well as what is happening with the GATA movement. The Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee was organized in January 1999 to advocate and undertake litigation against illegal collusion to control the price and supply of gold and related financial securities. The committee arose from essays by Bill Murphy, a financial commentator, and by Chris Powell, a newspaper editor in Connecticut, published at Murphy's Internet site, lemetropolecafe.com. This week we have a special edition of Gold Brief with GATA Bill Murphy and Chris Powell from GATA have big news for the gold community, so enjoy the interview.
