I would suggest that read, "Targeted Boycotts Work". Far reaching an broad boycotts burnout quickly but specifically targeting an issue people can understand can be quite effective.

"Boycotts work."

Just ask Rosie O'Donnell and her former employers over at K-MART about gun owners and anger against a chain that sells guns and ammunition to people who own guns and hunt.

Yes, a lot of us felt from the beginning that the best way to approach this Reagan hit piece was in the bottom line so to speak. By threatening a boycott of sponsors products we got their attention. CBS didn't care since the viewpoint of the film makers match their own. But they do care about the sponsors who equal money.

Damn right boycotts do get results. We're getting traction. We shouldn't let up until this film is ditched, period.
