| Check in here if CBS 60 Minutes not available in your area tonight |
|
If it's ok with you guys, let's make a list of which areas, stations did not show 60 Minutes tonight for and the reason. Then, someone with more computer skills than I have, can copy the list and send to CBS national headquarters (?) and to the media. This shouldn't be ignored, or we will have government sponsored censorship much more frequently than tonight!

| 4. I'll kick this thread for you ... |

even though it was on here in Dayton, and I haven't seen any indication it didn't show in Columbus or Cincinnati.
All would either be local broadcast or, in Dayton and Cincinnati, Time Warner.

... I knew these stations were conservative, but not THAT conservative.
I caught Hannity spinning this tonight. Again he repeated the "Barnes wasn't Lt Gov at the time".
He also came up with a new one concerning Barnes' sworn testimony during a civil lawsuit (as documented in Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell them). Hannity is making a slight of hand that Barnes didn't testify that he got Bush into the guard AT THE FAMILIES REQUEST.
Then hannity changes to NON-SWORN testimony and points out that Barnes totally denies it when he's not under oath. Therefore, Barnes lied under oath if his new charges are true.

| 13. Novak used that same stupid line the other day IIRC |
|
according to a post I read back then: "Barnes wasn't Lt Gov at the time" Right. He was Speaker of the TX House. The fact that he wasn't LTG means nothing. Stupid spin & clear evidence, by its very stupidity & irrelevance, of coordination of the spin.

| 10. We are going to demonstrate at WAFB's headquarters over this |
|
This is the only CBS station we receive here. The other station in town with a news department, WBRZ, has said they will cover our demonstration if we do this. So that's all the impetus our little peace group needs.
It's going to be a treat to protest against media censorship of the news. I've never done it before.
