Second, about CBS's anti-Bush taint, and third, send media links to the controversy to the advertisers and lodge a complaint with the advertisers that they must repudiate the 60 Minutes hit piece. Complain to CBS advertisers. Most of these are advertisers that were involved with the 60 Minutes slam on Bush, but hey, complain to them and ask for them to pull their advertising from the Bush Hating CBS... Standard PR response is that they don't know where / when their ads will run. JUST LET THEM KNOW THAT YOU DON'T ACCEPT THAT THEY CAN'T MAKE A REQUEST, OR THAT THEY CAN'T ABSOLUTELY INSIST THAT THEIR ADS NOT BE SHOWN IN POLITICAL HIT PIECES. THEY'RE THE CUSTOMER AND THEY'RE ENTITLED NOT TO HAVE THEIR REPUTATION SMEARED!

I wonder if it would be even more effective going to ABC, NBC, and CNN to insist coverage on this issue. CBS will want the issue to die, and is ignoring whomever complains. They probably figure that the people complaining aren't viewers anyway.
By going to the other networks, maybe this story will some serious legs.
Great info..thanks
