I can't believe I JUST sent them praise.. :eyes:


CBS, I feel you have betrayed not only me, but the American People as a whole...

I only minutes ago sent you a praise-filled feedback regarding your 60 Minutes story on Halliburton's use of foreign subsidiaries to get around laws that prevent them from doing business with nations that the U.S. considers to be terrorist-supporting. I was delighted and pleased to finally see these truths being presented to the masses that NEED to be aware of them.

Now, I am very disappointed. I just heard that CBS plans to air Halliburton ads during the Super Bowl that depict Halliburton with "Sympathy and Understanding".

Is CBS now officially taking money from corporations that CBS itself claims are supporters of terrorism? The implications of this are astounding. Even more so in light of the fact that CBS has refused to show the MoveOn ad that refers to the massive budget deficits, because the ad is "issue-oriented".

I cannot help but wonder just who is calling the shots at CBS. Will this handsomely-paid ad now result in no more stories about Halliburton? Have they just bought your silence and loyalty? Will one of your competitor's networks now do a story on how CBS takes money from corporations that sponsor terrorism? If not, they should. I can assure you that is what I will be telling people.

It's time for CBS to make up its mind which side it will be on.

Sincerely,
