SAN DIEGO, Dec. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- San Diegans may hear for themselves an
account of the events unfolding in Russia today as Qualcomm engineer Richard
Bliss is formally charged with espionage.  Exclusively on SanDiegoInsider.com,
Chuck Holmes, Moscow Bureau Chief for Cox Newspapers, gives an audio report of
the story.

toward Americans.  "What used to be a threat of the American military is now a
threat of American commercial interests doing business in Russia."

about Russian concerns regarding U.S. exploitation and Russian news coverage
of the Bliss case.
