I was on Fox News!!!
Edited on Tue Jun-17-08 10:59 PM by proud2Blib
It was our local affiliate. We had a vigil for Tomas Young. And Fox covered it. They interviewed me on the air. I was wearing my LIERAQ t-shirt but it didn't show on camera. BUT my IMPEACH CHENEY hat was very visible. :)

The recent American Idol winner is from KC and this Fox station called him a "local hero". So we wrote LTTEs (mine might be in the paper this week) and we called the Fox station to object. Tomas is a hero. There is nothing heroic about standing on a stage and singing. While we appreciate that the American Idol winner worked hard to earn his prize, that doesn't make him a hero.

The video still isn't online. But trust me, I ROCKED. :bounce:

On edit, pictures of the TV (best I can do without a video):

5. Sometimes, in rare instances, can singing be considered heroic...
...just not as part of corporate self-congratulatory spectacle.

Regardless, congratulations are in order for you and what you've been doing for Tomas.

Please post when your letter is published.

19. I don't think she meant the O'Reilly-Hannity FIXED News, but the local affiliate,
the one that shows "The Simpsons.":-)

22. that's cool
years ago, my college did a "die-in", where we all layed (laid?) down on the ground to represent all of the deaths from the Iraq war

The only TV station to send a helicopter was Philadelphia's Fox channel. It wouldn't have been as powerful if it weren't for that.

Also, I got my picture in the county paper, because I had a hat with a lot of political buttons I used to cover my face. It was a close up of me, but my face was covered.
