O.R.C.

Eco-activist Tre Arrow was sentenced yesterday to 78 months. Since his time served in Canada counts towards his total, he is actually facing between two years and thirty months more, depending on which corporate media outlet you listen to. Note that The Vancouver Sun, a Canadian paper, calls him an environmental activist, while The Portland Tribune calls him an eco-arsonist. Of obvious note is that the Tribune is owned by Dr. Robert Pamplin, the third richest man in Oregon (net worth in 1998: $560 million), who also owns Ross Island Sand & Gravel, the company whose earth-exploiting trucks were lit aflame.
