Contact Local Media about CA GOP promoting SwiftVets
Edited on Sun Aug-22-04 12:03 PM by Kipepeo
Skinner started a DU search for State and County Official GOP sites that might be promoting the swiftvet site or hosting the swiftvet video (and in one case promoting a fundraiser for them!). Here's what people found: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x649597#650266

Most of the State sites weren't stupid enough to link to the swiftvets but may County sites did. At least one in FL has already started scrubbing the info. from their site.

In California people found:
- Santa Clara - link to swiftvets
- Pasadena - link to swiftvets
- LA County - link to swiftvets TV ad

If you're interested in contacting local media in California about this and saying something like (stolen from mfritz):

"Hey reporter, Bush campaign says they aren't involved with swift boat liars. So how come this GOP website is promoting them?"

Here are the CA screen shots from the thread mentioned above that you can send to the media (thanks to incapsulated for capturing these!) I couldn't find the Pasadena one. Maybe someone else can post that screenshot here.
