Hey DU, Let's Play Ask a Media Website "What about Edwards?"

[Melissa G]

Why is your media outlet giving John Edwards such scant coverage?
Inquiring DU bloggers want to know! Every time you see a story that focuses on Obama/Clinton excluding Edwards, ask that site about Edwards coverage if there is a blog available. Email management, if not. Use your activism to Be The Media and create a story!

Edwards Supporters, Get to your keyboards! Ready... Set... GO!

1. The coverage is outrageous.

Again.

[Sarah Ibarruri]

2. I'm starting to write them right now! nt

8. Excellent list! But be sure to also ask in the comment section of articles that you read

Let's get the question out into the general public view as well.

[EFerrari]

12. That's a really good idea!

:kick:

3. corporate shills hate to be reminded who and what they are............

Edwards doesn't let THEM forget.

4. I'll play

10. Here's basically what I wrote to all but Fox

"Has anyone in your organization happened to have noticed who came in in second place in the Demo caucuses in Iowa??? It’s easy to deduce you know who was first and who was third, but what about second place? What about the under-financed candidate that stepped on Dame Hillary’s face??? Let’s see……………. What WAS that fella’s name???"

As far as Faux, why waste the keystrokes? :puke:

[Melissa G]

13. Nice comments! and yes with actual emails to Faux News it is a question

of why one might bother. But comments on articles are often read by the general public, so be sure to comment on an article whenever you see Edwards neglect in a media website's reporting.
Thanks for writing!:yourock:

11. I noticed USA Today was pretty fair with Edwards

He actually seemed to get more mention than Hillary.

All in all, I was rather surprised, since the media is obviously trying to shove Hillary and the Audacity of Hype down our throats. Then again, USA Today always seems to try to be pretty fair.

16. "the Audacity of Hype" -- Oh, I LOVE that! Perfect!

:rofl:

[Mnemosyne]

14. Needs more

:kick: for excellent idea!

[Melissa G]

20. Thanks, vickiss.!

The power of the blogs sometimes takes a while. The NYT is reporting on the corruption of the voting machines. If it wasn't for the perseverance of tinfoil hatters that would have been an unlikely occurrence. More of America is unsure of their vote being accurately counted. Drip Drip drip... We need it to happen faster for Edwards! Make a concerted effort to Be the Media!
Independent New Hampshire might hear about it!

15. KnR from NH.

[Melissa G]

17. You Get them NH folks on Board with Edwards, Foger!

We'll person the the keyboards and phones here! You Rock for heading to NH!:yourock:
Stir up the right kind of Media Buzz, folks! Call the Corporate News Media on their Dereliction of Duty! The airwaves belong to the people and the media is responsible for reporting All the news not the stuff they just make up. Edwards deserves serious consideration and serious air time! Let's do our best to make sure he gets it. If we flood the blogs with the message some folks are going to hear it!

[FogerRox]

19. From I have heard the media loved the Edwards story in Iowa

But the media is not giving Edwards the time of day in NH.

[Melissa G]

21. I'll be interested to hear what NH thinks after this debate

Esp media coverage. Keep us posted Roj, if you get a chance!

[jillan]

18. Good luck you guys - I sincerely mean that -

The Bidenites did this all the time. It never helped.

I can't stand to see them do this to Edwards.

2008 will go down in history as the year the media elected the President.

Hopefully Edwards will get a good showing in NH.

:hug:

[progressoid]

22. Good idea!

I'm hesitant to watch the Sunday morning blowhards. :argh:

23. Ready... Set... GO! n/t
