Lunatic Fringe Attacks CBS & Dan Rather - Here's My Letter Counter-Acting

[Pallas180]

The organized lunatic fringe has been e mailing all CBS affiliates threatening them and some have dropped CBS and Dan Rather.

Here's our chance to counteract the right wing wackos.

On the bottom you will find the email addresses Of 200 or more CBS affilitates the bushwackers have been emailing.

Go for it.


RE: DAN RATHER IS A DECENT & COURAGEOUS MAN, A HERO.

Dear Station Manager,

I am aware that the 30% lunatic fringe has been writing you
demanding that Dan Rather, CBS, and his programming be removed
from your line-up. Dan Rather had the courage to report on
Watergate and he is one of the few who can be counted on to have
the courage and integrity to report on matters of critical interest
to Americans. He is one of the few who makes the effort to maintain
a free press, a commodity that has become rare in the propagandized pap
Americans are fed today in substitute for news.

Unlike the current resident of the White House, when he has made a
mistake he has the courage and integrity to admit and apologize for it.

Should you choose to fold under the pressure of a small but organized lunatic fringe, I will not be watching your station, and I will be certain to advise my church, my friends, and your sponsors why I won't
be tuning in now or ever in the future.

Thank you for your consideration

Very truly yours

1. the only stations to drop them were RW stations - no one with

intelligence listens to those stations anyway

[Pallas180]

2. yep - the more reason to try to get through to those who have been brainwa

brainwashed - the sheeple.

Dontcha think?

3. Kick!

11. However, we need the support of stupid people, also.

I recommend that Dems spend more time trying to get the stupid vote.

4. Mine

In a world where professional journalism has sunk to its lowest common denominator -- that being the ability to read a White House Press Release with a straight face -- Dan Rather embodies the best of your profession.

Mr. Rather and his team at CBS News made a mistake, having been duped by what appears to be professionals bent on discrediting any claims that the President of the United States failed to fulfill his military commitment during the Vietnam War. Mr. Rather was courageous in reporting this story, and he has shown equal courage in taking responsibility for his actions.

A small minority of your viewers would like to see Dan Rather silenced permanently for his attempts to tell the truth the American people. That would be a tragedy and a disservice to your viewers and to your country.

:hi:

5. kick

I wrote too. I hope everyone does.

6. Also write your cable companies and put a bunch of signatures like

that and tell them you will no longer pay for garbage like Faux,
cnn, msnbc, etc. and you want their act cleaned up!

[Pallas180]

7. Great Guys. So many Du'er s have written-Keep up the pressure

with the list above....

Rather and 60 minutes are about the only ones doing an investigative
reporting anymore.

That report would have helped show America the lies put out by the Liar in Chief....and Rove ordered the assault.

We don't have a scummy Rove thank goodness...but we do have DU'ers with lotsa brains..

Keep writing and dont forget to complain to the FCC about Sinclair with 40 stations canceling CBS and censoring all their news stations across the country.

Asking that their license be pulled might be helpful :)

[Pallas180]

8. HOW TO COMPLAIN TO THE FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

Freedom of Information Act Requests

The Freedom of Information Act, commonly known as the FOIA, was enacted by Congress in 1966 to give the American public greater access to the Federal Government's records. You do not have to file a FOIA request to obtain information which is routinely available for public inspection, including records from docketed cases, broadcast applications and related files, petitions for rulemakings, various legal and technical publications, legislative history compilations, etc. Much of this information is already available on the FCC website, but if you would still like to file a FOIA request, follow the instructions on our FOIA web page.
