Dumping Netzero & Dennis Miller
Does anyone think there should be a letter writing campaign to get Netzero to dump Dennis Miller as its spokesperson? Because until they do... I won't consider using any of their services, how about you?

2. Miller and Blitzer must use the same barber...
their stupid looking 'beards' bug the shit out of me. Makes their mouths look like moving evil lampreys stuck in a brillo pad.

3. Funny that you mentioned it
I saw the Dennis Miller/NetZero commercial last night and I told my partner I wouldn't buy ice in hell if Dennis Miller is the one who is selling it.

What a poor choice of spokesperson!

5. Dump Miller - Yeah Baby
Since his conversion to neo-facism, I cannot stand Dennis Miller. When I flash past his show on cable I zoom past, with a sick feeling in my gut. I dumped Netzero some time ago, but would gladly dump them or any other sponsor who thinks he is a marketable spokesman.

6. Al Franken swears he hasn't changed that much.
Even though he no longer has Farrah hair, Franken says he was the same in his SNL days...must have just been another pot-smoking punk white boy libertarian.

8. Met him once. He's a little guy. Reason for bad attitude, perhaps?
He rubs me the wrong way. Typical middle-aged "one of the guys" sourpuss. His pseudo-intellectual big word name dropping is annoying as well. Can it, Napoleon! (OK, that was mean...)

9. Why anyone is still using Netzero is beyond me
It's a waste of time and a dial-up as well.

It's soooo 1990s.

10. Netzero is owned by United Online Inc. in Woodland Hills
The CEO is Mark R. Goldston.
http://www.untd.com/


Let me show you some tricks for finding contact info at corporations:

Look for press releases on their corporate web site. For example:
http://www.untd.com/
http://www.netzero.net/s/lc?s=158884&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.irconnect.com%2Funtd%2Fpages%2Fnews_releases.html%3Fd%3D69448
Resolves to:
http://www.irconnect.com/untd/pages/news_releases.html?d=69448
CONTACT: United Online, Inc.
Investor Contact:
Brent Zimmerman
(818) 287-3350
[email protected]

If you can't find press releases on their site (or if the ones on their site don't include contact information) try these tricks:

http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=mozclient&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&q=%22United+Online+Inc.%22+and+%22for+immediate+release%22

http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&q=%22Mark+R.+Goldston%22+and+%22for+immediate+release%22&btnG=Search

For even MORE contacts and email addresses:
http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=mozclient&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&q=%22%40untd.com%22

Unfortunately, in the case of United Online, you get a lot of "junk" hits, mostly from copies of spam complaints.

To see how well this works in other situations:

http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&q=%22%40cbn.com%22+and+Christian&btnG=Search

and

http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=mozclient&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&q=%22%40vatican.va%22

11. buyblue.org
Edited on Mon Jan-03-05 06:49 PM by nascarblue
I'm with you on that. As a matter of fact, spread the word about http://www.buyblue.org

The most important I'd say would be oil and media. Shell Oil has the least blood on their hands by far.

13. Did you see his show when Eric
Alterman totally shut the man down? Dennis put his head down on his desk. Eric whupped up on ole Dennis and he was speechless. Really. Dennis Miller couldn't talk. That's what happens when the fixed-fight that is hate-radio, hate-TV fails at getting all the controls in place. The neocons lose it. Just like Rush in his rare TV appearances. He starts to sweat and fumble. O'Reilly edits his show before broadcast. These guys aren't real. They're fakes. They're theatre masquerading as political pundits. Wrestlers have more integrity. And honesty.
Franken, Letterman, and Robin Wiliams have been to Baghdad. When's Dennis going? Or Sean? Or Rush? Or Bill?
We're waiting for the oh-so-brave warriors to go to the front lines.
Just like we waited for GWB to show up for his Guard training.
They don't walk it.
They just talk it.
