freepers plan to sabotage CBS fax machine

[grasswire]

The freepers have found and posted the phone number for the 60 minutes FAX machine and put out a call to jam it with faxes. Same old same old dirty tricks of theirs. They've been harrassing members of the press for years.

The Rathergate Memo that keeps getting shown on TV shows a CBS FAX number of 1-212-975-1998.


I just called it and it first rings as sort of an electronic ring, then switches into a FAX tone.


Wouldn't it just be a "shame" if CBS were suddenly overloaded with FAXES from concerned Americans who are tired of the BLATANT R.I.C.O. FRAUD which they conspired to perpetrate to overturn a Presidential Election?


That FAX number again is 1-212-975-1998.

1. Awww!

Wouldn't it just be a shame if FR were to suffer a DOS attack?
Assholes.

2. I also love how the person who wrote the message...

felt it necessary to "repeat" the number, as if it were a telephone recording and it were not possible to glance back through the message.

Rocket scientists, one and all.

7. And they call us dumb??

3. sad

isn't this illegal? if they are posting their little plan on the web and if they did jam the fax machine, wouldn't they get into a lot of trouble?

i hope someone here makes a copy of that page just in case they would do it--i think it would be interesting to see what would happen if they did do it and cbs had a copy of their plan. :evilgrin:

4. I think it worked.

Every hear anything on CNN about global warming? Ever see about how many Iraq people that have been killed? I could go on.

5. That's illegal.

Can't they be fined a significant amount per fax?

Someone should call cbs and perhaps alert the police.

6. How do they even know that's CBS's fax number?

Wouldn't it be ironic if it turned out to be a Faux Fax number? They are located in NY, too, aren't they?

8. I'm quite certain the CBS newsroom has multiple fax machines.

This is beyond stupid.

9. Does this idiot even know what the RICO statutes cover?

Let alone the fact that by rallying people to performan illegal act, he, himself, is violationg RICO provisions.

10. fax attacks

Go post Fox's fax number or that of the Bush campaign and tell them that it's the CBS number. Hit all the right-wing boards and talk it up big.

Twitting the opposition is fun. It's not enough just to win. You have to have fun along the way.

FWIW, CBS probably has many fax numbers. This one they're targetting probably is on a rollover PBX which can handle dozens or even hundreds of simultaneous inbound faxes. They get a daily avalanche of faxes from every campaign in the country trying to get some free air time. After the fax blizzards of the 2000 election, most organizations are better prepared for fax wars. There's no indication that this little fax attack will even bother CBS much. Not if they're properly organized.
