Since the Kerry campaign are trotting out Bob Barnes to claim the Bush family put George at the top of the list for the ANG(Bob has changed his story many times and there are others who also dispute this) can someone start up a boycott effort of 60 minutes advertisers? I have no idea how this is done but find it incredibely unfair that they cover stories from big Kerry contributors who can't keep their stories straight and who's story has been questioned but can't seen to do a piece on Vietnam Veterens who dispute Kerry's record. The story is on American Spectator and I will see if I can find the name of the person who disputed this ANG claim. Someone on here surely can get this organized. I think this would bring a lot of light on the SBVT when the press picks up the story that Dan Rather will cover a Kerry friendly piece but not an Anti-Kerry piece. With all the support SBVT has recieved advertisers might think about pulling ads.

How about an e-mailathon to CBS, they are still smarting from the
Janet Jackson Boob incident where people called and e-mailed their
disapproval. Why not 60 Minutes?

Just do as I did. Use the lock feature and lock CBS out of your home. And then send them an email letting them know that they are the Enquirer of TV news.

I thought this could be a SBVT ( and those that support them) boycott demanding 60 Minutes give equal time.
