This word will get out.."Fair and balanced" FOX; talk radio; internet bloggers; conservative columnists; individual email; word of mouth; some foreign press; national leaders who were disturbed by this, etc., will put this word out..It will not be suppressed for it is impossible in today's world for the enemies of freedom to suppress something like this. I knew this was the view of the American people because my own informal polling in my day to day activity hardly found anyone who reflected the MSM polls concerning Terri. In addition, people were more passionate in their view than I have seen on any issue.

The reason the MSM polls got the results they did was also due to the fact that their audience is now mostly just liberals and those who would rather watch regular programming with "smidgens" of news, than get all the facts on FOX.

FOX did run the story continually, and some were dismayed, but at least we heard both aspects, and the conflicting stories. They made some mistakes, but we pestered them, and in the end they usually got things right.

The MSM on the other hand devoted far much less attention to it, continued with their soaps and sitcoms, and never responded to corrections.

Thus, their audience reflected what they were given. They were as starved for truth as Terri was starved for life!
