Reply #9: It must be painful to be an ethical person working in the MSM these days.

[Fly by night]

It's obvious that anyone who can click a mouse today knows now that the Presidential election was stolen. There's also no reason to believe -- given the ease with which that happened -- that other races down the ticket (how far down, I wonder?) were also stolen. It is also obvious to all of us -- inside and outside the MSM -- that the raw exit poll numbers would provide irrefutable evidence of the timing and likely the mechanics of the theft. And yet, in the face of this evidence, the American media has suddenly become irrelevant to the survival of the body politic, except as "duck and cover" distraction for the most corrupt regime in our nation's history.

With that in mind, here is a letter I sent to all MSM last Thursday. I presumed that some intern or low-on-the-totem-pole staffer would read my email, so I addressed my comments to them. I titled my message, "Exit polls, exit polls. We don't need to release no steenkin' exit polls."

Might I suggest that others of you do the same thing. We need front line defections in the MSM to begin to chip away at their silent wall of shame. Let's let Sumner Redstone and Michael Eisner answer the phones in vacant office buildings soon. Here goes my letter:

"To the 'up the muddy mainstream without a journalistic integrity paddle' media:

"It must be difficult for any of you (including whichever low-on-the-totem-pole news staff person is actually reading this message) to look yourselves in the mirror these days as your networks stonewall the release of the 'raw' exit poll data to Congressman John Conyers that will prove election theft and the subversion of our democracy. Is this what you (and your parents) worked so hard to get you through college and graduate school to do -- to hide country-saving information rather than being in the forefront of informing the American people of the coup that has taken place?

"The article below summarizes what most of us feel, and what I imagine many of you feel also. No amount of personal consumerism-driven insecurity should keep you in a job that makes you complicit in this crime. Read this article, then take a break, go look at yourself in the mirror and ask 'What am I doing here?' Then go tell your boss (wherever you are on your network's food chain) that you have better things to do with your time than to work somewhere that is complicit in this election theft. And then write me back, so I can thank you personally.

(Here are the final lines of the linked piece):
-------
"'The media is supposed to report the facts, whatever they are, not withhold them. When the media stops reporting and starts withholding, it ceases to be the media.

"'While it's frustrating that we still can't see the exit polls, let's thank the media for at least resolving one thing for us today. Now we know why we don't see stories about the election on the evening news. Their refusal to release the exit polls shows us categorically that there is a concerted effort on behalf of the major media outlets to consciously prevent the information from getting out. It's not simple oversight, and it's not because they don't think it's newsworthy. Now we know. They are withholding information from us.

"'Now that that's been resolved, we can move on to the next question: What are they hiding, and why?'
-------
"Make your parents, all your relations, your classmates and friends who envy your current job, and the ghost of Edward R. Murrow proud today. Tell your bosses to take this slimy job and shove it. Then join the rest of us in taking our country back." (End of letter)

Thanks again to the Canadian journalist for reminding us what a truthful, honest and patriotic journalist can sound like. Maybe if this hemisphere (and planet) is to survive, we might all consider walking and talking like Canadians, 'eh? Peace, out.
