But have you written your letter to MSNBC. Have you written a letter to counterpoint the form letters that the rightwingers are trying to unleash on MSNBC right now.
The Netroots helped in getting a US Senator that said he was a Democrat, but did things that were not what a Democrat should be - thrown to the curb. Are we going to prevent the swiftboating of a journalist (remember what a journalist truly was) who stood up and told Donald Rumsfeld were to stick it?
The Execs at NBC really don't know what to think of Olbermann's smackdown of Rumsfeld last night. So they are going to have to see what viewers say and that is where we need to unleashed hell itself. The inboxes at MSNBC need to be overflowing with support for Olbermann.
Just like in "Good Night, and Good Luck", the switchboard needs to be going off the hook right now. So open up your email account at hit them now - hard. And then keep hitting them over and over again until they get the point.

Then tonight - everyone watchs Countdown. Give the show the pop it needs in the ratings. No watching Hardball and then no watch Scarborough afterwords. Just Countdown. If you have a TiVo use it (ratings are collected according to TVNewswer).
It is time for the Netroots to show their power again.
UPDATE:from paddykraska - Keith's new book is coming out. It is rising in Amazon's ratings (what a shock!).
