Rather happily receiving encouragement from his idol Castro
to continue Rather's CBS-vicious myopic antiAmerican-Evening News.

Already, the major networks are raising their biased heads. Coverage of the brutal massacre of Nick Berg is being pushed aside in order for liberal networks to continue pounding anti-terrorism war efforts by incessant repetition of the Abu Ghraib prison-abuse story, despite the swift response by the military to begin investigations and court-martials immediately.
Within 24 hours, ABC and NBC quickly diminished their reporting of the barbaric death of Nick Berg, just as they did with the atrocious crimes against other Americans.
Gary Bauer, chairman of Campaign for Working Families, points out the media's pre-occupation with pushing anti-war rhetoric. "The press wants us to see every photo from the prison, but they try to hide the handiwork of our enemy."
A study by Media Research Center (MRC) indicates networks like ABC, CBS, and NBC will completely bury the Berg story soon to refocus on efforts to oust Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. In fact, on Monday, NBC made a conscious effort to belittle Rumsfeld by airing a comparison of him to Adolf Hitler.
The MRC study reports NBC's morning and evening news shows aired 58 prisoner-abuse stories since April 29. In all of 2003 and 2004, NBC aired only five stories on the mass graves discovered after the fall of Saddam Hussein, despite an estimated body count of as many as 300,000.
Let the major networks know you want them to be as vigilant about covering the murder of Nick Berg and other Americans as they have in coverage of Iraqi prisoner abuse. Tell them the horrendous abuses against Americans deserve the same amount of media coverage too!
Send your letter to ABC, CBS, NBC, and CNN now!
Sincerely,
Don
Donald E. Wildmon, Founder and Chairman American Family Association

For those of us who understand that we are truly in a war for our Nation it is time to take action. I have canceled my newspaper subscription. I can get whwt little is worthwhile from the local paper free on the net. We need to severely cut down on watching network shows.
I have not watched NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN or NPR news for 25 years and I am still better informed than Dan Rather.
