Reverse Advertising?
Sitting here watching Bill O'Reilly spout off the fact that shooting a wounded man in the head is a "reasonable" action, I was confounded. Then, I had to sit through the comercial break, and I was repulsed by the ads I watched. I wonder if it would be effective for the wide DU network to keep a running list of advertisers on Fox News so that we can all avoid their products. It is entirely repulsive for these corporations to be funding people like O'Reilly and Hannity. Anyone know of a list or a database with Fox News advertisers? Or, should I get started with keeping track? Let's make sure that the advertising these companies are doing is not worth the dollars they are spending to support Fox News.

2. That article is great!
I posted it yesterday on a freeper dominated board in the middle of a discussion about the NBA brawl. And it worked! NO ONE has replied yet. That is always a good sign when debating with freepers, you know.

Nice to be able to give you credit for a great read.

3. Thanks
for the compliment. It is really nice to hear from readers; especially those who like an article. I am working on a couple other articles that should be done soon. I will post them in the editorial section of DU when I have them up on Op-Ed. Keep up the fight.

:)

A-bomb
