Hints for emails to the media:
--Use the email contact list posted in Resources.
--Place your email addresses as BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) instead of a mass mailing in the "To" block.
-Keep it short
-Use a bullet format with concise supporting information.
-Don't call them names, but question their integrity-calmly!
-Challenge them to do their job. No one likes being told they don't know how to do their job!
NOTE: Major was the only one to actually repond with a personal email. _________________ OsanFAC

There are more around like him:

I want to take this time to personally Thank You for your Integrity and Desire to see this thing through. It sickens me to see how the Main Media Outlets have thus far attacked these Great Men who fought for their rights to be Americans and have a First Amendment. I truly believe, despite the 2 connections thus far uncovered, that this is not a Bush-Kerry thing it is a Vietnam Veterans- John Kerry thing. He MUST answer for the opportunistic decisions he made 30 years ago, just as GW Bush has (Texas Air National Guard). |

I caught him on the news yesterday and he seemed favorable towards SBVFT. After having seen Geraldo I really needed a boost.
So the question is:
If the chips were down who would you want guarding your back? Geraldo of Major?
I vote Major. _________________ kerry returned to the United States on July 22, 1971, held a press conference publicly calling on President Nixon... for the surrender of the United States to North Vietnam. |

I always liked him when he was on CNN. When they fired him I figured he wasn't towing their socialist line. Last year he was on C-Span, I was right, the guys a conservative Republican. He didn't come out and say it but the organizations he had been involved with proved it, sorry I can't remember specifics. I just remember my feeling realizing I had been right about him for years.
When he's reporting you can't tell where he comes from, that's the first clue he's not a leftie, with them you always know. |

Wow that's some great response he e-mailed! I always liked his reports, now I like him a lot more than I already did! A REAL LIVE JOURNALIST who actually cares what's true or not. I need to sit down for a while, I'm dizzy. |
