Where the Hell is the outrage in the MSM about the scandal rocking Air America? I know, I know, no liberal bias, but c'mon! The dolts at the Wash. Post and NY Slimes promoted this fiasco for weeks before they started, and now...........I just send 6 e-mails to the publisher and president of the Slimes, I suggest you do too.

No one will touch the story. And since air america has stated they would pay the money back, the rule of 'no harm, no foul' seems to be in effect. Nevermind that the law was violated.

The only way Air America is going to get any bad press in the Leftist media is if someone gets it in their head that it's run by Halliburton.

Emails to a publisher mean NOTHING.

Lost business to a publisher's advertisers because of their support of the publisher means EVERYTHING.

Boycotts work.

They'll ignore you even if you are a subscriber (which
you almost certainly aren't). Now, if you were an
advertiser, they might sit up a bit.

Might be more productive to send a note to your Senators
and Congressperson, asking why public funds are being
used to run a partisan broadcast network (we already
have one of those, NPR/PBS, and hardly need more).

Funny, but true.

Email links to the blogs covering this story every day. Make your friends and family members aware of the media black out of this scandal. This will matter more than sending several emails to Bill Keller or whomever else. They will erase them and not answer them anyway.
