compile a list of ABC network advertisers to call, boycott re: path 2 9-11
Edited on Mon Sep-04-06 10:07 PM by liberaldemocrat7
Since we do not yet have the names of the companies that will advertise on the REPUBLIKLAN party propaganda piece "Path to 9-11" use this message to compile a list of national ABC advertisers you see who advertise on ABC network programming from 8pm to 11pm in your time Zone.

The first potential advertiser of this movie:


I just saw a Wendy’s hamburger commercial. By the way Wendys appears a notorious GOP contributor and only gives to the GOP. Call them and tell them not to sponsor the path to 9-11 and also tell them you also will continue to boycott them until their CEO gets congress to pass an unamended law to raise the minimum wage to TEN dollars an hour and repela Medicare Part D, repeal the Medicare Part B means test, and set up an 80 percent coverage prescription drug benefit in Medicare Part B.

Complain to:

investor_relations@wendys.com

marsha_gordon@wendys.com

denny_lynch@wendys.com

rita_soronen@wendys.com

18. I JUST SAW A PROMO FOR PATH TO 9-11 IT WILL RUN UNINTERRUPTED
Edited on Tue Sep-05-06 08:22 PM by liberaldemocrat7
NO COMMERCIALS WITHIN THE PROPAGANDA PIECE.

I suggest people call Rush Limbaugh's advertisers and demand that they get ABC to remove the propaganda piece. Rush Limbaugh's advertisers advertise on WABC - AM radio in NY.

4. they pulled the ABC discussion boards on this particular project
as I posted here:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=2810746&mesg_id=2810746

Clearly the message is out that this will cause a shitstorm and I hope we really put the screw to them to pull this mockumentary.

12. I have a sincere question to ask.
I see many people would boycott these advertisers in order to pressure them to go pressure ABC to take off this so called propaganda piece.

Would you similarly pressure GOP contributor companies that make consumer products to actually get some USEFUL legislation passed by pressuring these companies with a boycott too?

If the answer appears YES then send emails to those GOP contributors from http://www.dmocrats.org

Thank you.

23. ABC WILL RUN PATH TO 9-11 UNINTERRUPTED. So boycott Wendy's, Red Lobster.
Edited on Tue Sep-05-06 10:12 PM by liberaldemocrat7
This means they will not have advertisements during the propaganda piece so we can go with this second plan to demand that Rush Limbaugh's advertisers get ABC to drop this propaganda piece or we boycott them. Rush Limbaugh's program airs on the ABC radio network station WABC AM radio in NY. Besides Rush Limbaugh would benefit from this propaganda airing on ABC TV.

However you can add two notorious GOP contributors to this list:



Wendy's restaurants investor_relations@wendys.com



and Red Lobster rlmedia@redlobster.com

By the way Wendy's and Red Lobster DO avertise on national ABC prime time television so these two companies appear relevant to boycott.




Rush Limbaugh's advertisers

Tell them you have called them because they advertise on Rush Limbaugh's show and they help advance the Republican agenda including airing the path to 9-11 propaganda piece.
