But HOW do we get the word out about the fraud beyond the world of the Internet?
Re your question, this is what I do:
1. Write letters to the editors.
2. E-Mail articles from Free Republic around to friends in my e-mail address book. A lot of people only get or see the Old Media stuff and they LOVE the new media. (When I e-mail I copy and paste the article itself, not all the comments because people like to print the articles out to share with their friends).
Think about it. We e-mail an article out to 20 people in our address book. They e-mail it out to their friends. And so on.
Rush is reporting on the possibility of fake documents now.

Just look how many hits Drudge has had in the last 24 hours alone! As far as we are concerned, we can write our local papers, tell our friends and neighbors, print off copies of these stories and show others....etc.

Email. Pass the word along to everyone in your address book so they can pass the story to everyone in theirs. At some point, Fox or some other non-internet outlet will pick it up.

No problem. It's called news competition - along with (equally important) not wanting to look bad. There's a point where they have to go with it. They may try to spin it, but they can not ignore it; and if they do, they only degrade themselves even further as news sources.
We are evolving into the stage where the media begins to blame Kerry and his people (It's not our fault, says the media, it's Kerry's).
OK, I am just a neophyte, but couldn't we Freep Google News? I don't know if that's how Google News works, but does their search engine provide more stories on items that are searched for more often? What would happen if lots of people searched it for "60 minutes fake Bush documents"?
