NEXT STEPS
As we continue this campaign, you can help in three major ways:
- Please notify me by email at the addy in my profile if you see new Coulter advertisers that we currently do not have on our list.
- Try to capture screen saves of these new advertisers if possible. Our good friend and fellow Kossack Kestrel9000 has generously agreed to collect the screen saves and post them in a unique "screen capture" diary. Please send screen caps to the email addy shown in Kestrel9000's profile. Please note: for legal reasons,if at all possible, please crop your screen caps so that only the top of Coulter's page shows and verbiage from her blog is not visible. This will enable Kossacks to download the screen caps for specific companies to attach to emails as verification of presence on Coulter's site. We especially need screen caps for ING Financial, which continues to deny they have placed ads on www.anncoulter.com despite being viewed by a number of Kossacks.
- If you receive a response from an advertiser announcing their withdrawal from Coulter's site, please post it in comments if there is a current diary up, or otherwise forward the response to my email addy.

Ad Networks provide a third party service to companies and their advertising agencies to distribute content over a variety of sites. Please request that they counsel with ad agencies and their corporate customers to avoid placements on www.anncoulter.com.

One of the reasons this community had some great successes yesterday is the respectul tone of communications sent to advertisers. Please take care to keep your communications succinct and professional. Angry rants are much more likely to be ignored by companies and organizations.
Thanks again for this great community response. Let's keep the pressure on!
