202-824-6707 call Hardball to complain

[unblock]

1. perhaps senor matthews is espanish, "molestar" means "to bother"

without the, um, particularly negative connotations found in the english "to molest".

:rofl:

2. Well, now..

I saw the program and he was saying that it would be made to appear the she had been molested...he said the GOP would set it up and spin it that way.

I'm no Tweety fan, but in context it was not as bad as it sounds.

12. The mere fact that this crock shucker even brings up the word

molested and Kennedy in the same breath has a lot to be desired. What's Chris Matthews objective? To put heat on the GOP? I don't think so!

I don't watch the show, I'm only going by the reports.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

13. You are right about even using the word

can be considered inflamatory. Like an insult from left field or something.

3. yes, and her husband will overturn her right to abort Kennedy's love child

It's a beautiful world

4. I just called and asked to speak with someone

the girl said that noone was available, and I asked her to ask everyone why Matthews is trying to really, really piss off people? I said I was calling all the advertisors, and the cable company to complain. She was polite and took the message. No more just leaving comments. I am so pissed.

7. A new member with an imagination. Welcome to DU :-)

And, not shy about showing it. :+

14. This is what we need

Every day, a hot list of 3 or 4 key media outrages with phone numbers and advertisers and start shutting down switchboards. We should have been making media calls on the filibuster too.

5. Welcome to DU. Why do you watch such? Save yourself and turn off

MSNBC and the ilk.

[ceile]

6. Welcome blue cat! n/t

[blue cat]

9. thanks

Yeah, you're right, not that bad now that I've rewatched it. I admit that I have it out for him. I'm not over the MM comment, nor will I be since he didn't apologize. They are probably going to recognize my voice after a while. I won't watch except for the clips on C&L.

8. I just called the Office Depot PR person listed and she was REALLY

nice! and she had obviously gotten several calls.

Be nice when you call the sponsers folks, you get more flies with honey......

edit to add, Hi and Welcome to DU :hi:

10. I know everyone says "Don't watch"

But it's so hard to stay away, kind of like eating chocolate. I really think
Matthew's sponsors could be really swayed because his ratings are in the
dumps anyway. Let GE scramble to get some new patsies to fund the fool. Making
Matthews uncomfortable is a good thing. Sometimes it's wise to keep your enemies close.

11. I can't stand the guy anymore, I watched him up til 11/04 then I had to

stop, I just can't take it....

the OfficeDepot gal was great, especially when I told her, "I am your demographic. A 50 y.o. married small business owner." and she agreed.
