By the way, you can usually get great rates and flights to Atlanta from almost anywhere.

If the main stream guys want to act as though they are part
of the government, then they can be protested like the government!

Well, I can always see what a ticket costs there. Better still, anyone know if we can get something similar for Davenport (NBC 6) or Moline (ABC 8)?

TV first then newspapers then we go for the tri-fecta and flood billboards across major highways. I am waiting for a national billboard campaign to get started in a big way. I like the idea of putting up a wide picture of D.C. on 9-12 with the words “CBS/NBC/ABC/MSNBC/CNN/PBS/CURRENT/AP/REUTERS ALL SAY A FEW THOUSAND SHOWED UP TO WASHINGTON, D.C. ON 9-12...DOES THIS LOOK LIKE A FEW THOUSAND? GET INFORMED...THE MEDIA LIES”

“Me thinks this guy is letting NBC and MSNBC go they way they are for RATINGS.”

It has NOTHING to do with ratings..

If you recall, NBC had decided to shut down MSNBC after the election, because of the losses.

GE is keeping them going to buy political goodwill from the Democrats, and to keep the largely-gay ‘talent’ employees of NBC from rioting.

the “*******’s” at WLOS in Asheville...

I doubt we could find a more slanted, in the tank bunch, this side of DC.

This is the same station that could not go for a news ‘copter but instead had the “ Thirthtoon Balloon “ ( hot air balloon )

Will spread the word ,, NOW

Yes.

The Tea Parties started it, with that guy on CNBC on the stock exchange floor.

Then followed by the Town Halls all across the land.

Then followed by Citizen Journalism resulting in the political exposition and destruction of Van Jones, followed shortly by the hilarious cracking of ACORN's nuts.

Escalating to a million person march in Washington, D.C.

All of this in the span of about five months. Stupendous.

THE NEXT LOGICAL TARGET AND THRUST HAS TO BE ON THE STATE CONTROLLED MEDIA (aka "Fringe Media").

They are one of the biggest impediments to getting our country back and the restoration of Constitutional republican democracy.

AuntB, don’t you think that the times and places of these protests should be kept behind the wall? Just announce that there will be a protest and have a “go-to” person to answer private mail to give interested parties the time and place. People can be screened by their date of joining FR.

“AuntB, don’t you think that the times and places of these protests should be kept behind the wall? Just announce that there will be a protest and have a “go-to” person to answer private mail to give interested parties the time and place.”

I’m conflicted on that point. People always say if they’d had time to plan, they would attend. We could try both ways and see what works.

No it is about money not ratings. MSNBC has the worst ratings of any cable outlet.

This about the tons of taxpayer dollars General ELECTRIC stands to make selling “green” technology to us peons when Cap and Tax passes.

Unless their activities are disrupted, they will ignore the crowds. I was a the Beck Support the troops rally years ago in Centennial Park. We had a crowd of 20,000. All of us turned, pointed at CNN (you could see the CNN people in the windows) and chanted for them to cover the rally. I think they reported that about 200 protesters were at this rally and thousands were at a war protest in a park a few miles away (that protest had fewer than 200).
