I humbly submit that it is time for another event similar to the discrediting of CBS's phony documents story, which began here in Free Republic. Here are two more left-wing media stories needing national exposure of their discrediting:
1. Michael Schiavo is a loving husband (in reality, he verbally and physically abused Terri, very probably caused her infamous collapse, he committed fraud in malpractice trials seeking money over that collapse, and he lied about her wishes and helped contribute to her murder-via-starvation out of his desire for $750,000 gross upon her death).
2. Terri was in a persistent vegetative state (in reality, Terri wasn't in a PVS, but instead had a minimal level of consciousness, could feel pain, and could do some limited verbalizing).
I request your assistance in getting these erroneous left-wing media stories nationally discredited.
Some ideas for action steps:
1) Become even more informed about Terri's actual condition and Michael's abuse:
a) read the nurse and nursing assistant statements:

b) read

2. Review my Chronology of Events, draft 3 being in
call for Terri Schiavo hearings

3. Contact people in Fox News, the _Washington Times_, Newsmax, and WorldNetDaily, and ask that they devote resources to investigating the matter. News organizations can build on the work done at
http://theempirejournal.com/greer_schiavo_articles.htm
which has among other items the not-printable "Analysis You Be The Judge: Was Terri Schindler-Schiavo A Strangulation Victim?"
4. Contact congressional leadership and members of the judiciary committees, describe some highlights of what you read, and request that hearings be held on the matter.
I invite additional ideas for action steps, and your thoughts.
I'm proposing that we work together to attempt to have the left-wing media shamed over its inept coverage of the abuse and attempted murder in the Terri Schiavo saga.
The left-wing media has a lot of explaining to do.

"'the sad family consensus to let his father die.'" "When his kidneys
failed, the family decided against connecting him to
a dialysis machine."
The Schindlers desperately wanted their daughter/ sibling to not be
starved to death. There didn't exist a family consensus that Terri
needed to be starved to death.
"'Both were incapable of surviving without continuing medical
assistance.'"
Before she was starved to death, Terri Schindler Schiavo could be
fed by hand. Judge Greer ruled in one of his more outrageous and
sicker rulings that Terri's parents couldn't give her food and water
by hand.

False with respect to Terri.
