Can we not emai the networks with hundreds of emails asking..
why they do not carry stories like the one about Cheney asking the race of a photographer? Or send them a barrage of emails when stories like that one come out informing them of it although I'm quite sure they already know. I'm sure Faux wont' carry it and probably not CNN but the big 3 and msnbc?

1. Cheney asked the race of a photographer?
Need details. Where and when? Spill it man. This should definitely get coverage. Any links would be appreciated. Thanks.

3.  Bush camp solicits race of Star staffer
President Bush's re-election campaign insisted on knowing the race of an Arizona Daily Star journalist assigned to photograph Vice President Dick Cheney.

The Star refused to provide the information.

Cheney is scheduled to appear at a rally this afternoon at the Pima County Fairgrounds.

A rally organizer for the Bush-Cheney re-election campaign asked Teri Hayt, the Star's managing editor, to disclose the journalist's race on Friday. After Hayt refused, the organizer called back and said the journalist probably would be allowed to photograph the vice president.

"It was such an outrageous request, I was personally insulted," Hayt said later.

6. That's my plan...
I mentioned this last week, but I am in the process of planning a campaign, much of it involving email, aimed at the media, advertisers and the public (mostly in swing states). And perhaps a few politicians. This is going to be done, hopefully, in conjunction with a few other organizations (can't do it all myself!).

Can't go in to details at the moment...some I couldn't post here anyway, but let's just say it's going to be reminding everyone that in the last election more than half the people in this country voted for a candidate other than Bush.
