Welcome to my home base.
I’m now incredibly proud to announce my association with Creators Syndicate, one of the nation’s largest purveyors of quality opinion columns, is now distributing my weekly crime and justice column, which I post below every Monday. I’m also a contributing writer for The Daily Beast.
The Albuquerque Journal will continue to be the paper of my childhood and my home base for as long as they’ll have me.
My columns here are always different. Sometimes I’ll simply tell you a story. Sometimes I’ll share my opinions, praise or criticism, other times I’ll hold a mirror up to our society and ask you to form your own opinion. I hope the columns will give you something new to think about each time you visit. It’s a complicated world out there, full of situations of good versus evil, right versus wrong. My job is point them out.
If you’re interested in running my column here’s the Creators Syndicate link or call (310)-337-7003.

Great job last nite 8/28/08 Also drop dead Georgeous!!!
Frankly, I do not agree with either. The talk-shows have run it into the ground the way they “dog” fellow americans. Seen one you have seen them all. Ratings is all that matters. Duh! It has become inflammable,
biased to the hilt. Like these talk show host’s believe they are sitting in ivory towers and passing down judgement on others. Should I say “thrones”? Talk shows are definately not part of our justice system.
What is so disgusting, these cases have not even hit the courts yet and
that is where they belong, not on nationwide tv with ex-prosecutors and journalists trying their best to try the case on tv. Their opinions at times are so disgusting. It has become extremely hard to watch and believe me the tv viewers are not stupid and can see right through it.
So why even waste your time to watch? Ramble on.
Pretty sharp website here Diane … Dr Blockbuster was even going to complement your web development work, until I notisched the small print below. :smiles:
Anyway … your action reporting has come to the attention of Dr Blockbuster on braveheart shores … can’t be bad. Now don’t you start siding with THEE Mr King who threw a “lame name” jibe at moi! Encroyable, c’est vrai!
Keep up the good work !!!
I liked your last column on the ex-CIA guy rescuing kidnapped children.
How about doing an article on how DUI checkpoints are unlawful and how the State of New Mexico are arresting people for DUI when they are under the legal limit of .08. People that get a DUI are treated worse than
child molesters.
Great article, as usual. You do a wonderful job. Keep it up!
Hi Diane,
I love watching you on Nancy Grace. You’re compelling, strong, and keep things fast moving & interesting — and with the toughest of topics, too!! I don’t want to miss a minute..!
Thanks for great reporting!
Marian
Nice to meet a woman dedicated to Truth & Justice which this Planet seems to be in short
supply of at the moment. Your Website is very well done and the photos are superb quality.
Keep up the sincere Investigative work.
You have a fantastic career. I remember working with you at NPR in Washington, DC. You have come a long way since reporting the news on radio. Congratulations on your book, "Be Careful Who You Love". I am in the midst of reading it now.
Hey, Al! I remember you too! Thanks for your kind words. And thanks for buying the book! ~ DD
Love your blog, Diane!
Terry Daniel
Pretty good post. I just found your site and wanted to say
that I’ve really liked browsing your posts. Any way
I’ll be subscribing to your blog and I hope you post again soon!
You are the worst journalist in the world. You help to destroy the career of a brilliant icon, Michael Jackson, with your false allegations of child molestation with no factual evidence to back it up. You mind is so perverse and corrupt that you could not see the truth. As a result, you helped kill one of God's angels.
I did nothing of the kind. In the end the toxicology report will prove what killed Michael Jackson. I fear it was Michael Jackson who killed Michael Jackson. ~ DD
No killied Michael , because you hounded him as his family to the point his mother became ill because she hated you so .
Diane
I wish you and all the other journalists could at least take some responsibility for how you pursued this man over the years. Yes, Michael Jackson seemed to have an addition to some medications. But why?? There are always underlined reasons why a person would have developed such an addictive personality. This man was under continuous pressure, created mainly by the media and journalists who wanted a piece of him. And yet you want everyone to believe that he was this monster because he used drugs. Mr. Jackson's favorite song, "Smile". explained it all. He was smiling on the out side but he was in sever pain on the inside. Would you have attack your own family member because they had a drug problem? Or would you have backed off so that they could get some help? Perhaps if you had stopped all the negativity towards this man, the others would have followed suit. This could have been a good story on how to help others who are in this same dangerous mode of numbing their pain with medications. But then you would not have profited from that as you have from Mr. Michael Jackson. This was a man who was loved by tens of millions of people across the world, even though they have heard these stories that have been told, they still could see that this man was about love. The truth will come out, there are so many others who are also responsible for what has happened to this man, but your aggressive attacks on him through the years did contribute to his pain which lead to his death. Someday perhaps you will understand this, until then I will pray for you.
Diane , We can't believe that you had the nerve to go to Michael Jackson't memorial on yesterday . Michael, his family ,friends,attorneys and fans hated your guts . Have you no shame ?It was so good to see the cop on Janes show remind the audience that you went out of your way to make the public think Michael was guilty of a crime long before his trials ever started . You stalked Michael and we all remember this . You were so mean that Michael had to put you under a peace bond to keep you away from him and family . Thank God that the dead can not rise up and confront their enimies . You should be treated like Congressman Peter King , run out of town . Your book and words against Michael should be{ BOYCOTED} Those who loved Michael will not let you slander Michael in death as you did in life .On the shows that you have appeared on you give the impression that you are glad that Michael is dead. You are so pathetic.
Diane, you are not a good journalist and you drove Michael crazy and he hated you.
I think the Attorney General should be given life in prison for sending those terrorists to be tried in New York. And I don’t believe he did it withot President Obama’s approval.
