Do you want to push back against Time Magazine?

Time's Swampland ^ | 9/25/08 | Time Magazine

[lonewacko_dot_com]

Would you like to push back against Time Magazine's Obama supporters like Joe Klein, Ana Marie Cox, and Karen Tumulty? It's actually incredibly easy, but despite how easy it is few people (other than me) want to do it.

Time Magazine runs a blog called Swampland, and almost all of the posts read like something from DailyKos, and almost all of the comments do as well.

But, there's something you can do about it: sign up to post comments (it's free and easy) and then when they post something that's in error, point it out. The goal is to discredit Time's "reporters", so the comments have to show how those "reporters" are wrong.

If enough people went there and left comments pointing out how Klein, Cox, Tumulty, and the others are wrong it would help discredit them and if it gets bad enough they'll tell their other friends in the MSM.

So, by spending a little time signing up, monitoring their site, and posting comments you could help have a very healthy impact on the press coverage of the elections.

Will do. thanks

I’m just guessing, they don’t have a moderator to remove said posts?

[roses of sharon]

Good idea, thanks!

We should bump thread once a week at least!

What percentage of Time’s subscription base is dentist’s offices? Does anyone read this rag except when they are waiting to get their teeth cleaned? Even then, I bypass Time and go to Reader’s Digest. Or just stare blankly at the office staff...

I cancelled my subscription to Newsweek today, told them that if I needed a weekly barrage of Obama campaign literature I would go to his website and sign up there. I also told them I look forward to the day they go out of business.

[astounded]

I pushed back long ago by cancelling a subscription that had run for mre than 20 years. I recently cancelled my local newspaper subscription of more than 20 years, and told them why I did it. You have to put your money where your mouth is or you will not get anywhere. I forbid DVDs in my house from the likes of Samuel L. Jackson, Matt Damon, Danny Glover, and I could go on and on. So we miss a few movies - no loss. Vote with your dollars, people.

Don’t read trash. Don’t read filth. Time is both. Nuff said!

[Prov1322]

Wow...who knew Time and Newsweek were still published?

[Boston Tea Party]

I’m with #6. These has-beens aren’t worth the time it takes to rebut them.

[claymax]

I know, I did the same thing, the only sad thing is “Rounders” was my fav movie, and it took all my strength to put it in the garbage. I love playing Texas Hold em from time to time, and I just thought that was a good movie. Has anyone else given up their favorite movie or show because of politics on Freepers? Please tell me I am not alone on this

[henkster]

In addition to no longer watching any TV news other than Fox, I don’t watch any major network programming (except sports; I gotta draw the line somewhere). I’ll watch ESPN, Speed, Discovery Channel or History Channel, and even then I’m picky. Lots of crap out there.

I could count the number of movies I’ve seen in the past 3 years on the hand of a 14 year old Chinese textile worker.

[patriot08]

I signed up. Thanks.

[curth]

Yeah, Time is always there and the damn View is always on the TV.I get up ask, if anyone cares if I change it, no one does and I put the Price Is Right on.

[claymax]

LOL, that is about the same line up I watch, but I also get a kick out of watching the Food Network, but after Paula Deen had Michelle Obama on her cooking show and Rachel Ray cozying up with Oprah, this is about to end to. I was so in love with Rachel Ray til I found that out, thank God I have Gov. Palin now to fill that void. (SHH, just don't tell my wife)

sorry for the double posting but I have my son in my lap and I accidently hit it twice not thinking.

[Lancey Howard]

Do you want to push back against Time Magazine?

Darn right! Yesterday I told my barber and my kids' orthodontist to cancel their subscriptions, thereby reducing Time's circulation by 10%!

[Republican Red]

I know what you mean about Rachel Ray. Very disappointing in her hero worship of Oprah. She is also very complimentary of Rosie O'Donnell. Pathetic.

However, I did happen across McCain and his wife on Rachel's show earlier this week. McCain did a barbecue demonstration after the chit chat. Must admit that Ray was very cordial to the McCains.

[reagan_fanatic]

Same here. When I first got married 23 years ago, I had subscriptions to both Time and Newsweek. After the garbage they pulled on Reagan and subsequent Republican Presidents, I said enough was enough, cancelled both subscriptions and haven’t bought either one since.

Until they start reporting fairly and stop using their magazines as organs of democratic propaganda, they can go suck rocks for all I care.

[Renegade]

I pushed back when i cancelled my subscription after the Mr. Newt cover that amde him look evil!

[rightinthemiddle]

I just turned down free Eagles concert tickets because of their politics.

I just don’t want to see them.

[Doctor Raoul]

I was a devoted Time/Newsweek subscriber until I found out I was only getting half news and half propoganda.

[patriot08]

Every bit helps to get the word out to the naive American voter.
And you can take it to the bank; every black church, every black organization, every Muslim Mosque, every Muslim organization in every town and city across this country will get their people to the polls- even bus ‘em in.
Every person who stays home, votes third party or ‘write in’ in helping to put Barack Hussein Obama into the White House.
There will be voter fraud, cheating and intimadation on the part of the Obama Machine to put this monster into the White House.
McCain is the only thing standing in his way.
Hit the newspapers. Hit the forums. Every day.
Spread the news. Expose this Marxist/Muslim1

Here’s a place to get ammunition:

The Obama File
http://theobamafile.com/

The information in the Obama File is backed up by links to Obama’s own books, speeches, news articles and matters of record.
It covers his history from his African ancestors to the present with daily updates under ‘Latest News’ button at the bottom of the page.
It is easy to read and research. (’search’ box)

Bump.
