Since we're not getting anywhere quick with US media, would the foreign media be interested in picking up on this and getting something started. At least let them know there's a good posibility * lost and he doesn't have the mandate he's trying to project.

1. i was thinking the same thing... |
|
we know their agenda is the same as ours... Some in US will resent their involvement, but our media would be forced to pay attention if the stories are big enough. Let's outsource it!

Picked up Mexico City TV News last night, and they are questioning the validity of this election. How long that will last will be anyone's guess. Will contact ZETA, they publish on Wednesday's, but who knows, they already have had two of their editors gunned down for exposing the Arellano Cartel and the crooked campaign in TJ. Will give it a try anyway.

If someone could give send me a document containing a summary of all the evidence so far, like the one Will Pitt has been writing, then I'll do my best to pass it on to the news teams.
I think Will's doc is great but it's targetting may be off for foreign journalists who don't understand the ins and outs of the US system. Furthermore for those not familiar with the Republican modus operandi it seems more than a little tin-foil.
Something a little simpler with perhaps a few references to the historical evidence of voter fraud (e.g. books written on Florida) would probably have a better chance of getting their interest. While Dems and well-read Americans know it to be fact the rest of the world is still not sure on what went down in FLA in 2000.

7. How about buying ads in the foreign press |
|
letting them know that most Americans oppose the adminstration. Letting them know how we were defrauded.
Web sites written in other languages would be helpful too. It is typical American arrogance to think that most people should be required to read English.

8. people from DU have been contacting the media |
|
Last night some has a reporter from the Mirror interested -- in that thread there are a whole list of links with tons of information.
It looks like someone needs to put together a media informational source for foreign reporters.
