Expose the RW TAX-EXEMPT hate-speech factories (aka"think tanks)

[blondeatlast]

Ie, American Enterprise Institute, Heritage Foundation, etc, ad nauseaum.

We need to look at these institutions, connect them with the ubiquitous talking heads on the tube, and their most outrageous statements.

The lazy-ass MSM is using them as "reliable" sources, and never bothers to offer an opposing view. We need to systematically call them on it.

What used to be race-baiting and hate speech has become shockingly commonplace, and we need to expose it.

If you want more info, PLEASE read "The Republican Noise Machine" by David Brock, who rakes the muck with the best of 'em.

These are TAX-EXEMPT foundations, mind you, whose sole purpose is to take over the press and even American culture.

TAX-EXEMPT, and blatantly political.

1. Back when there were a lot of anti-war protests still going on...

...I kept thinking how effective it would be to have one in front of the offices of one of these think-tanks. It'd have to be big enough to get media attention, but yeah, they'd pretty much have to mention that the protest was in front of the headquarters for _____ when they cover it. And with repeated action it would become familiar to people.

2. Good thinking. Will be on the look out.

The Heritage Foundation is among the worst.
