Time to flood the phone banks of the networks/cable news?
Edited on Sat Sep-24-05 01:40 PM by Atman
Shut the fuckers down. Don't let them conduct business or sell ads. Shut them down until they begin reporting real news!

You'll get hung up on as soon as you say "anti-war rally." No kidding. It happened to me twice.

9. Theyre not picking up. OK they picked up.....
I left voice mail and email.

Maybe they're getting overloaded. Good.

10. Just called both MSNBC and CNN about no coverage.
Got vm on CNN.
Got a person at MSNBC but he said he was not in "authority", just answering the phone. I asked him to please pass my message about lack of coverage in DC, he said he would (for what it's worth). He said he had been getting other calls like mine.

It's really disgusting but not surprising.

13. I must have talked to the same guy you did.
He was pleasant and said they were getting many calls.

I left a voice message with CNN.
