Whatever happens on Tuesday (and I am praying for a crushing Bush win over the empty suit called Kerry) the most important thing we can do is to pull out all the stops to boycott the networks for their violation of the trust and power given them.
This may not be easy for everyone, but we can do it. Don't waste time on their advertisers. Instead, smply do not let anything of any kind at any time (including entertainment) get in your space. Channel block, aim the remote, change the settings on your radio, only watch football through satellite, and tell friends why. This is something that will grow, and they WILL feel the pressure. Just Say No to the Networks.
We need a nationwide poll closing time for presidential elections. That would eliminate the use of selectively calling states in the east to affect voting in the west.
I have heard news commentators say they will be giving results as soon as polls close in a given state.
Excuse me. What is this violation of the trust and power given to them? Duh? Usually part of good writing is telling the reader what you are talking about rather than ASSuming that everyone can read your mind.
Same here.
All politicians from both camps will refrain from admitting the socialist leanings of the MSM for fear of negative publicity. In fact, they will defend them should violent protest enter from the right.
FOXNews will become the new focal point of leftist anger should Kerry be elected. They will be labeled the news outlet of the radical-right. Fewer and fewer political figures will agree to appear on their network.
What needs to be done can not, and should not, be addressed in this forum.
