What’s the score on the Black Panther story? Hear the WAPO had a link to a Fox article on it. That that count?

Nasa is toast. We are broke. Too much money was given to the nonworking.

Well even here you have idiots posting about LeBron James. NASA can go away now - it is a joke.

NASA was good when the Germans ran it.

It’s up to us. Push it to your email tree (hey develop an email tree!) and post on all the sites you can.

We are the new media.

So true. I think that is why the state run media is so perplexed by the Tea Partiers. They can't figure out why their propaganda isn't working anymore.

“List of working MSM email addresses to send it all to ???”

Nope, be your own publisher.

I took note of the people that include me in group posts- prayer requests, “look at the funny video” emails, kitten pictures, jokes and the like.

I recruited several of these as distribution nodes, I found out which ones were conservatives or at least willing to pass stuff along.

Then I started sending them links to articles or gov’t docs or Youtube links, with a brief paragraph usually, but sometimes with more editorial stuff or factual stuff. I back everything up with links and research.

I send it out to the “node” people as well as a list of friends, contacts, political contacts. Some contacts I found by looking at the Send portion from group emails that are not Bcc’d.

If I make it interesting enough and honest enough (no sensationalizing), I find that the message gets passed along, especially by the node people, who apparently send anything interesting to their entire mail list!

I know I’m successful when I get my message back from two or six other people.

It’s basic viral messaging, and it runs completely around MSM- and can be faster, and can potentially cover many hundreds of people, if you have a bunch of “node” emailers who take time out from sending puppy pictures to include my “news item”.

I forgot to mention, all the folks who send me political stuff, I send stuff back, whether they are on our side or not.

I get a lot of political email now!

I’ve been pushing the NASAnistan story for a while, different articles, opinion posts, etc.
