I have never done anything like this before, but I am tired of feeling helpless!

Welcome to the best place on the net; glad to have you here.

Great post. Copy and paste your comments on a few Rather threads tomorrow so it gets more attention.

'write a nice letter to the general manager of your local cbs affiliate. explain that you have determined that falsehoods included in cbs network news programs broadcast by the station are not in the public interest.. explain that you believe that this is something that should be taken into consideration when their license comes up for renewal. close the letter by saying that you therefore request that this letter be placed in the station's public file.

these are powerful code words. "not in the public interest" is the grounds for challenging a license. the "public file" is a file of consumer comments which the station by law must maintain. it is provided to and inspected by the f.c.c.

if you want to be really mean cc the letter to:

Federal Communications Commission
Consumer & Governmental Affairs Bureau
Consumer Complaints
445 12th Street, SW
Washington, D.C. 20554

believe me, enough of these and cbs will hear about it bigtime. angry affils are the last thing a network wants.'

COPIED AND KEPT FROM A SMART frEEPER.

AND....

Folks can print up some of the great CBS graphics on the FR threads here onto some magnetic paper and use it as bumper stickers.

Taking the message on the road.

How do we find the Freepers in our area? (I am new too). I live in NJ can make it to CBS in NYC. If anyone knows how to find out the people in each area let us know. Otherwise... I'll figure it out in the morn.

It is time for a revolt against the MSM and CBS in particular. I have pent up frustrations that have been locked up for years and this is a perfect way to express them.

How many times have we felt helpless and maybe have even questioned our own ability to use reason and logic when the facts we know do not jive with the facts they report.

It is TIME we make news and show the MSM that we are not going to stand for their lies anymore!!

I am in!!! We need leaders. I for one will offer to lead in the Central Illinois area. I already have been in communication with the local CBS affiliate and they are nervous. Let's ROLL

I'm calling the FCC tomorrow and a freeper earlier today posted the number of a Congressman who monitors FCC issues.

I need to find that post and call that number as well.

CBS is never on in this house anyway so it's not a hardship to boycott them. But their sponsors should hear from us.

My understanding is that Dan Rather mentioned this matter AGAIN tonight on his television made up news program; this is based on another freeper's report.

FReepmail ('private message') firebrand. She is the FR chapter head in NYC. It would be up to her to take action at CBS's home base in NYC.
