If you don't like the "Parents Television Council" then
you will probably like SpeakSpeak.org.

I'm one of the writers. Amanda Toering is the other writer.

1. Am I the only person in the country who hasn't seen the Hilton
commercial?

Am I the only one who doesn't care?

Nice article, but I must disagee.

The corporate sponsored war in Iraq is the worst I can think of.

2. I was looking for things corporations did directly.
It's true that the Iraq War is worse than the chemical leak in Bhopal, India, but corporations acted through the US govt. for the war.

6. Oh. Well, it was an understandable mistake.
I thought the corporations WERE the government.

7. Ah! A kindred spirit.
I will not have a cell phone until they shove one into my cold, dead hand.

8. I haven't seen the commercial, but I guess this "controversy" has
to be helping it be more successful, since it's reaching me even here.
