We should all be sending our local ABC Affiliates
email and phone calls and letters... Maybe if we concentrated on a local level and put on the pressure, they may succumb... After all, ABC here in my town would not show the DeLay ads because DeLay threatened a "Lawsuit".

Maybe if enough of us concentrated on a local level, we might just apply additional pressure...


Any suggestions or ideas?

6. I'm already in Round 2!
I got the standard form letter from the ASSISTANT GM of KMGH7 here in Denver. I thanked him for the form letter in my reply and then sent links and stories about outright fabrications in the story. I also sort of mentioned we'll be waiting for their license renewal when it comes up.

We'll see.

7. I just heard back from my local GM.
Same BS. I gave him another piece of my mind and told him I was off to contact ABC's advertisers.
