Once again, the Media is playing the Rethugs Talking Points to the Hilt. Imus this morning slammed Russ, Lou Dobbs laughed at him. The Media is just repeating Frist's accusation that it is only a political ploy to gain attention for a Presidential bid for Russ. The Dems are offering no support. And the media is killing us right now. But there is an answer.

I propose that we put the same amount of effort into contacting the media and cranking up our own "wurlitzer". Everything that you guys have been writing to your Senators we should duplicate to these Media Outlets:
http://www.cbsnews.com/...
http://msnbc.com/...
http://abcnews.go.com/...
http://www.cnn.com/... (lou Dobbs)
http://www.cnn.com/... (Wolfie)
http://www.foxnews.com/... (Faux News)
It is obvious that the Dems only go where the wind blows. The wind blows where the Media SAYS to blow. We have all been working very hard to show our support for Russ Feingold's Censure Resolution to our individual representatives. That is a good thing, and necessary. But, until we get some positive action from the media, the forum for public opinion that controls our wimpy dems, Russ will obviosly be left out to dry. He is being attacked from all sides as only trying to gain attention for a Presidential bid. The thousands of letters, emails, and fax's to our representatives are having little to no effect. The best way for us to get some support from the Dems is to create our own "Wurlitzer". Everything that we have been telling our Senators and Congressman in support of Russ we need to repeat to the Media outlets directly.
The Dems will stand when the Media tells them it's allowed to
If anyone has anymore links they think would be helpful I will update the Diary with those links.
Please Recommend so this thread at least stays up long enough for people to see the links and use them.
