I really think we need to be proactive. CBS is the absolute worst - they rival CNN. I sometimes hear the CBS headlines on the radio on the way to work and they consistently start their news update with bad news about the war. We had the outrageous homeschooling story and now this movie on Reagan. Not to mention Rather every night.

I checked and www.boycottcbs.org is available. We could have it up in running in 24 hours for about 15 bucks and 5 bucks a month on verve hosting. I would be willing to spring for the cost of the site and participate on a development and maintenance team. I wonder if any webmaster Freepers would want to manage it or other freepers would want to participate in the development? I know how to code but I don't think it is something I could adequately maintain on my own. Putting a team of freepers on it (of which I would happily be one) would be the most efficient and effective way to set it up.

I envision the site would:

1) Document the outrageous bias, evidences of their left wing agenda.
2) Provide context and correct to errors and outright lies in their stories.
3) Provide sponser information to facilitate boycotts and contact.
4) Discussion boards, reader reports, chat etc
I know there are other sites out there that chronicle Rather's bias but this site would be specifically event driven with the mission of correcting errors, exposing lies and bringing financial pressure to CBS as a way to hold them accoutable to the truth.
Thoughts? Like I said, if we get a group together, we could be live in 24 hours.

Great idea. I think most of us want to express our displeasure with the truth-impaired media, but single e-mails and calls only scratch the surface.

I am not a webmaster, and I am retired, but I would be willing to support it with a few bucks.

Whatever it takes to fight these special interest groups who are paid activists, not vounteers.
