Looks like we're getting 'Al Gored' again |

By the media. They are simply running a 10:1 negative media ratio against Kerry.
How can we get the message out, when the established channels are orchestratedly in HIGH GEAR negative propaganda mode?
CNN said the networks did carry the Convention much because they were afraid there wasn't going to be any "drama".
The refuse to report anything the Dems set forth, instead just repeating well established memes. Soon it will be that Kerry "Can't get his message out effectively".

Perhaps MOVEON should do an ad featuring the media dogs and their bias?

Write respectful, nice, letters that point out examples of bias and that you are disappointed with coverage, to the organizations. Explain to them that you would like both sides to be covered in campaign reports, and point out specific examples of how it could be done.
Remember to respect people. They won't listen if they think you are some-fringe nut (profanity laced e-mails will cause them to come to that conclusion).

3. Of course they're going to do it again |
|
they did it last time and it worked and they're not known for being the most innovative bunch of folks! I say let's fight them with all we've got and hold them accountable.

4. Jam the phone lines and fax lines |
|
I don't see any way to get their attention without a coordinated effort. Email won't do it, I don't think.

5. They may try, but we are SOOOOO much better organized now |
|
We had nothing then.
The reason I love Michael Moore was that I heard him speak at a book-signing about 10 months after 9-11, and he said, and it reduced me to tears, "You're not alone." Until that moment, I thought I was. Everything I heard, everything I read, wherever I turned, the nonsense being spewed made me feel I must be going crazy.
Now, they can try to run their bull-shit again, but they will be held accountable. Immediately. In numbers, with facts.
