Dear Military Families,
We received the email below from Michael Bronner, a producer for 60 Minutes, and spoke with him as well. He is looking to speak with families who have concerns about recruiting practices (for new recruits) AND re-enlistment schemes/pressures in the military. If you would like to email or speak with him, his contact information is below.
Thank you!
In Peace and Solidarity, Nancy Lessin and Charley Richardson, for MFSO www.mfso.org www.bringthemhomenow.org

I am a producer at 60 Minutes and am working on a story about military recruiting. I have heard anecdotally about several concerns regarding recruiting methods employed by all of the armed forces, and am wondering whether there is anyone at MFSO working specifically on these issues, or any families with relevant experiences they might be willing to share.
Please reach me by phone though the contacts listed below.
Thanks very much.

Since 60 Minutes wants military news - and has decided to contact Veterans for Peace to get "accurate, unbiased information", maybe we should contact this producer about media bias in their research.
Michael Bonner has Micheal Moron's picture on his wall.
I'm listening to a collage of newscasters from 9/11 on the Laura Ingraham show right now and imaging that CBS is focusing on trying to demean the military men and women who are out there risking their lives to defend us from another horror.
CBS is beyond repair.
bump
Micheal Bonner is Michael Moore's TV alterego...la
They keep trying to pin this on Bush by saying the White House "didn't question their accuracy"... HOW COULD THE BUSH WHITEHOUSE KNOW WHAT KILLIAN WAS THINKING AT THE TIME? SHOULDN'T CBS / DNC HAVE VETTED THEM BETTER THAN THAT?
The most important thing you can do is to contact CBS and voice your disgust about Dan Rather. Second, about CBS's anti-Bush taint, and third, send media links to the controversy to the advertisers and lodge a complaint with the advertisers that they must repudiate the 60 Minutes hit piece. Do they want their products associated with a politically motivated hatchet job which turns out to be a fraud?
CBS 60 Minutes Hit Piece on Bush
This should be enough to put a LOT of heat on CBS if you're willing to do the work. Complain to CBS advertisers. Most of these are advertisers that were involved with the 60 Minutes slam on Bush, but hey, complain to them and ask for them to pull their advertising from the Bush Hating CBS...

Quick, send this fool some fake documents... they'll bite on anything.
Is this how they found the bogus documents?
Call his cell, He will answer, Also fax him and Blather a nice note. They are a 527 Fraud group for Flipper!
I already complained to Home Depot.
What the hell is this, research for Michael Moore?
NEWS FLASH: RECRUITERS LIE TO YOU...
Note to SeeBS, when you are in a hole, quit digging.
So call this CBS producer and tell him!
He wants your feedback.
(By the way, offer to fax him an update to his 1973 version of Microsoft Word while you're at it.)
Here is an interesting tie in re one of the radical peace organizations and this left winger. His name is listed as an attendee at a big meeting.
More of the bias we expect from C BS.

Ha ha ha.
What a scoop: recruiters don't always tell the truth; car dealers don't profit from undercoating; time shares are a good investment.
CBS is nuts.
60 minutes....tick tick tick tick BOOM.
I think there is more to this story. Shows CBS is corrupt to the core, not just an unwitting dupe of a forged memo.
