15. Write a letter to the editor of your local paper

Mon Apr 2, 2018, 08:15 AM

The most effective thing we can do is shed light on what Sinclair is doing. Call everyone’s attention to their propaganda agenda, which is: get votes for the GOP to cut taxes on billionaires, like Sinclair’s owners.

The best way to do that is for all of us to write letters to the editor. If you want help editing those letters, message me, I’m happy to help.
