Title Protest NBC News - Demand the News
Burbank , California
Location 3000 W. Alameda Ave, Burbank in front of NBC News
Topic / Issue Media
Sponsor Mothers and Children Against War, South Pasadena Neighbors for Peace And Justice
ProWar Government Propagandists not Journalists!
Degrading the Integrity of American Journalism

Do you feel like something is missing in your life? Something is incomplete? It is. It's the Real News.
It's the truth that you seek and won’t find on NBC News Programs about the real situation in Iraq, about the morale of our soldiers, about the validity of this war, and about the true number of fatalities and causalities in Iraq to date. Why? Because General Electric wholly owns NBC and is profiting from hundred million dollar war contracts whilst broadcasting government prowar lies and half- truths to the American People. GE needs you to support this war so they can continue to make money off of it. They are using our public American airwaves to deceive and persuade you. Don't be fooled! Demand the Real News!

1. I haven't watched ANY MSM since November 2004

that is my protest

2. one of the best criticism about the current media that i have read, is in

fannie flagg's fiction novel, WELCOME HOME, BABY GIRL.

the new york times critic passess the book off as a fluff piece. it may have some fluff stuff in it, yes...but it has some serious criticism in it as well. i don't know whether flagg's Welcome Home, Baby Girl was a prophetic piece... or simply a needed criticism of the mainstream media after the bush take over (I don't know whether she wrote it before, or after, the bush take over)... but, whether one, or the other, she certainly hits the mark and pegs the media down!!!!

3. Kick for the weekend. If 10 people can force the St Pete's paper to cover

the memo, we might make a dent. Though, I don't watch corporate news so I wouldn't even know.

4. Kicking for nightowls -- We need more protests AT the media!

Just imagine if we hounded the MSM outlets with the same fervor that protesters have been dogging Schwarzenegger. Think maybe we'd see a few more important stories get covered?

Especially if protesters crashed a stockholder meeting...
say at Fox, where viewership is down 58%.
So the bias is negatively impacting shareholder value.
