1. I agree with you!!!!!!!!
When the Bush's and Cheney's meet, it's a nice family meeting.
When the Kerry's and Edwards' meet, it's a big joke and PR stunt.

That's what we are fed!!!

DAMN THEIR EXISTANCE!!!

3. Why? I'm getting to like watching dem surrogates display
how smart they are instead of repeating talking points as well as just sit while the whores spin for the GOP.

4. i suggest that
we write, call, e-mail the corps advertising on these media ho's, tell them we will not buy their products until they and their wjoly owned media subsidiaries clean up their act and give us fair and balanced reporting and editorials again.

Get them in the pocketbook.

Go hard

6. That's what I do.
e-mail the advertisers and CC the broadcaster. Let the sponsors know that your image of their company and their products has been tainted by their affiliation with the biased political coverage.

9. I think we have to win without them - they are not going to help
I check in briefly now and then. Today I happened to notice how CNN had a scathing attack person rip up Kerry after his speech. After Bush*s speech later on - they followed with a lady talking about how much support Bush* is getting from security moms.

And the really sad thing is that a lot of people are not clued in to how biased they are.

10. not a good idea
we as the most passionate about corporate media bias can e-mail, phone, blog against, tell Media Matters, etc when they fuck up. If we turn it off, they get away with it and the sheep follow. That's worse for our cause.

13. What is the link to the advertisers? We need to pummel them
and the advertisers with e-mails. I called NBC Sunday because I was so infuriated by their partisanship.

15. These guys live by their ratings thats where we
have to hit them. Who's going to advertise on a station no one is watching. The advertisers don't care, but are they going to pay money for if no one is watching their commercials. Turn off CNN, Turn off CNN, Turn off CNN, that has got to be our motto.

I'm more than willing to support anyone who can help with that.
