media target suggestions for the next 2 weeks

Looks like we didn't do too well with the NYT. Maybe we should have gone after certain journalists.

A couple weeks ago we discussed the different morning shows and some bloggers, I think.

Please make suggestions and I will put up the consensus on Monday.

I would like to add that we should, as merrily suggested, Thank Juan Cole. Please see Eridani's post Juan Cole: How Mainstream is Bernie Sanders?

Probably won't be back tonight but I hope everyone will give their thoughts on this

GO BERNIE! #Bernie2016

Like NPR, the NYT was once a bastion of fair media. No longer. They now serve higher masters. Enthusiast May 2015 #2

I am not trying to pump my post down thread but I believe we need to go around MSM at every turn possible, This is what was on my mind when I came up with my idea of a you tube film if done right it may go viral then MSM would have too take notice. Just a thought, I would do it my self but as I said to do it right and cleanly is beyond my skill set , Any SSU students for Bernie you are right down the road and I'd like to hear from you especially film majors , So that is the way I can see to force recognition from all news outlets.

It's a good idea. But until we have something like it, we can't use it.

However, the idea of using something he has done on Thom Hartman, or something like that, when we contact the target, is a good idea. Then when you have yours put together, we can use that

Thank you

This should be a cause for alarm.

I don't remember right now. Sorry. Didn't sleep well so my brain is not working yet

Need some ideas, please. I want to post today. Your thoughts would be great. Maybe something in Iowa? Or New Jersey?
