CBS SUCKS!! Watch it? NO WAY. And I'm not supporting any of their sponsors either. AND I'm letting the sponsors know all about that.

I'd give the guy 72 hours and then ask him what "informed decision" he's reached.

At this point I think that CBS will air it just because THEY believe they will get great ratings. We really need to get our side to completely boycott thism movie. Dems have no attention span for a mini-series, so they probably won't tune in. We need to make this the worst ratings disaster, ever. If not, expect more of these hatchet jobs. I think it's getting to the point where they don't even care as much as getting their ideology out there. Casepoint: Whoopie aired a show that was so egregious in its hatred towards George Bush that it was shocking. Although it was terribly rated, they REPEATED THE VERY SAME EPISODE two nights later then ceremoniously announced they will renew the show, although it has one of the poorest rating of the night. We can only deduce that they care more about the message than the ratings.

>>In the meantime, I choose not to simply accept the opinions being offered by various talk show hosts on this sensitive subject. If this show airs, I hope you will consider watching and forming your own opinion about how President Reagan was treated. The little I've heard suggests that he is presented quite favorably<<
And just who has he heard this from?? Has he viewed the miniseries or just "heard" about it. I listened to the cuts on Rush w/Drudge on Friday. First hand, this is slander. Where has he heard otherwise?
Tell him that you will only consider watching if you get a sneak preview without the commercials and you plan on telling the sponsors that you will not be watching their ads when it airs.

The little I've heard suggests that he is presented quite favorably. He must think that CBS's Reagan claim, "I am the anti-Christ" is a compliment.
Maybe most liberals aspire to be the anti-Christ themselves and so they see no unfavorable presentation on the part of CBS.
To: Babsig
To me CBS is already a lost cause. The fact that they were/are going to air this mini-series is not all that shocking to me, and I never really felt like they could be persuaded otherwise. But hey, that doesn't mean a good bit of letter writing isn't a good idea. More power to ya.

Perhaps he DIDN"T hear the actual sound track that Drudge played on Rush's show last week? You can't say that is just some right wing fanatic talk show host's opinion, can you? Or maybe he feels those excerpts were favorable to Reagan? HAH!

This is all just a big publicity stunt to get ratings. They are letting it leak that it's very negative to get the Reagan haters watching. Then they'll cut out most of the "controversial" scenes by the final edit. They are just trying to gin up interest & it's worked so far.
To: Babsig
Whatever you do, don't reward them by watching it.

In other words, it will be decided when it airs.
What a bunch of PR work.

Considering the way "Assistant" Pennington passed your message down to "John" to answer, I'd say that you received a lock-step, party line -- typical leftist -- placebo.
President Reagan is a much loved and highly respected human being that is -- at the same time -- deeply hated by leftists of every deviant scent and flavor imaginable.
So my prediction regarding the CBS Reagan miniseries is that CBS will hang itself with its own rope.
My suggestion is to watch it -- to at least know and remember those that sponsored it.

Gentlemen:
This is just a heads-up to let you know that I am producing a docudrama about CBS News. In one scene, the two of you go into a 2nd grade classroom, armed with chainsaws, and murder all of the children and the teacher. The next scene is of the two of you amongst assorted body parts, eating the cookies out of the kids' lunchbags.
I'm sure you won't object ... artistic freedom, dontchaknow ... but I thought you'd like to know.
Warm personal regards,
etc, etc.

I would reply to him this way:
Thank you for your opinion about my level of competence to judge anything on my own. Now, I recommend that prior to the airing of this program that YOU review the material before defending it and considering anyone who might oppose it as close-minded.
Perhaps I've formed my opinion based on what the New York Times (hardly a right-wing newspaper) reported as an interview with the writer? Perhaps you have not seen the article in which the writer claims that the depiction of scenes are not biographical but spun from her own political bias?
After you have viewed the material, please contact those of us who have taken the time to write you and been rebuffed.

Send your feelings to his regular sponsors. Copy their addresses and your note to them and SEND this on to that idiot who is going to run the show. Let him know that follow up letters will hit the sponsors...that you wanted to warn them, include your letter to him while your at it and speak to RESPONSIBLE TELEVISION and ETHICS.
