Vankin's "dossier" according to Disinfo.com

That's just a few of the many times Vankin has shamelessly debased himself in search of mass media "exposure." Over the years, he has appeared on The Roseanne Show, Rivera Live, Equal Time, The Tom Snyder Radio Show, The G. Gordon Liddy Show (that was a kick), various CNN broadcasts, the sadly now-defunct Strange Universe, Hard Copy, HBO's First Look, TBS TopX and lots more radio and TV programs -- in addition to many, many press interviews. He has yet to be recognized in a restaurant, however.
