a mail-in campaign: Send big, blank (joke) checks to MSM mouthpieces

[villager]

Like those outsized Publishers' Clearinghouse checks, with a lavish amount filled in, saying "Whatever Bush is paying you, we'll pay you more!"

I bet if some of these "reporters" start to get a stack of 'em, we can get under their bought-and-paid-for skins, a little bit...

[TrustingDog]

1. teehee. love it! n/t

[roguevalley]

2. will do!

[Stand and Fight]

3. Love it! Great Idea! n/t

[roguevalley]

4. I've tried to find a form but can't. Anyone got one that can print out

with spaces for names and such?

[justiceischeap]

8. Here ya go!

It's huge but should print out normal size.

[seabeyond]

5. villager i agree

i think this one is the easiest. mass email. pfaw is on it. i have been saying since saturday, lets. but we need tons and off other dem boards. simple emough. how much did bush pay you with our tax dollars

anyway i just sent out all my emails

[villager]

17. great, thanks

even if the MSM "reporters" get only *dozens* of these, they'll start to notice...

[goclark]

6. Fantastic idea can someone photoshop one

that we can copy and email them all around?

People should carry them on January 20th and put them everywhere.

I want to call it Mediagate because it is not just about payola.

When I think of payola I think of a record company.

This iruns so much deeper and main stream America needs to know that they are all on the take rom Matt Lauer on down.

[KarenS]

7. I will do it too!!!

Great idea :)

[Eikon]

9. Here is one you can use

A template I made. Very basic, but I'm sure someone can add a background and improve it.



:evilgrin:

[TrustingDog]

10. may I suggest, on the check address.

It really should be something like this instead of 'Pimp of the Nation'

'We The People'
On Every Street, Avenue, Crescent, Blvd., Rural Address
in America

[villager]

47. "We the People"

indeed...!

[goclark]

12. ROTFL =that is funny and so true nt

[villager]

14. thanks!

31. Did you remove it?

All I get is an error file when I click on the link

[proud patriot]

11. I shall join in

:thumbsup: thanks for the printable versions .

this action totally reminds me of something
Abbie Hoffman and the Merry Pranksters would
of done .

We need to get a huge one for Good Morning America etc...

[katinmn]

22. cutie katie couric gets one for sure

[Taxloss]

13. Great idea! "Payee: Mark Steyn...." n/t

[proudbluestater]

15. My Gawd! What a FANTASTIC idea!!

We should organize it and sign them from Democratic Underground, i.e. the "Conspiracy Theorists." ;-)

[villager]

16. that's good, too!

[katinmn]

21. Ger permission from Skinner if you want to use the DU name/logo

That aside, I love the idea! I could send several a day.



:kick:

[villager]

23. it doesn't *have* to be a DU campaign...

...but of course, it could. We could put it on the front page!

[katinmn]

24. I think that would be really cool!

The Plaid Addler used to offer a "best of" award. It's time we recognized the "worst of" also.

:kick:

[LeftCoast]

18. OMG! This is wonderful!

The SCLM (So-Called Liberal Media) ain't going to like it. ROFL

[Fleurs du Mal]

19. Fantastic idea!!

Let's do it.

[villager]

20. Let's!

n/t

[LWolf]

25. ROFL

How about taking out some ads in prominent newspapers to "display" them?

Or magazines, or billboards...

[villager]

26. hey, that might be even better!

"How much were they paying you, Mr. Novak? The American people will pay you more -- to tell the truth."

And a big ol' check filling the billboard. Good!

[LWolf]

27. It's one thing to get people's opinions in your mail;

your mail is private. To have them plastered clearly where the world can see is another story, isn't it? ;-)

35. can't let this one sink... K.

[LeftyMom]

29. Likely Targets?

I can get some in the mail tomorrow or the next day. Problem is I don't watch a lot of mainstream media and I don't have cable. Katie Couric and Novacula have been nominated. I'd send one to Mark Hyman (the SInclair guy) but I don't wish to waste a stamp or provide that ass with my return adress. Who else? Bunus points if you provide addresses for the lazy amongst us. Otherwise if you post names I'll try to find addys for them.

[villager]

33. Howard Fineman? Chris Matthews?

Bill Schneider on CNN? God, it could be a long list...

[KoKo]

39. WaPo's Howie Kurtz. His wife Sherri Annis runs a Repug PR Firm in DC

Prime Candidate....He also whore's on CNN's Reliable Sources which is billed as "where the media casts a spotlight on itself." That's the interoduction he reads before every Sunday edition of his show.

BWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Media casting a spotlight on itself!!!!!

[villager]

49. George Will!

His missus is "gainfully employed" by the elites he routinely apologizes for, as well...

[KoKo]

41. Judith Miller (NYT's), Michael Issikoff and Mark Hosenball (they write

together for Newsweek)

[KoKo]

44. Don Imus, Rush Limbaugh, Christopher Hitchins, Michelle Malkin, Coulter

and...there are tons...of them. Wish "Media Whore's" old site was still up. The list was there...all of 'em.

[villager]

48. Good!

Let's cut their checks soon!

[villager]

50. all good!

[Stockholm]

30. Kick! n/t

[radfringe]

32. another suggestion

send them a dog biscuit or a coupon/ad for dog biscuits

I've taken to refer to the press as "barneys" (i.e. wh dogs)

the WH press puppy 'toon http://radfringe.tripod.com/

[villager]

34. "Wag the Dog," eh?

Be good to see their smug selves squirm just a little -- though, do you have to get up off your knees to squirm properly?

[Karenina]

36. Very funny idea!

:kick:

[seabeyond]

37. i sent email, gonna send some more., how much did bush pay

you with tax payers money

fineman doesnt get it, but he does some. he said in an article today edia losing their power no one believes them. he blamed it on democrats exclusively which was silly in and of itself but he lightly touched on the talking mouth promoting bush

[villager]

38. jesus, he blamed it on Democrats?

How on earth did he find them responsible for the stomach-churning atrocities-by-omission that cowards like Fineman and others have committed?

[KoKo]

40. Can this be e-mailed. A copy of a check written out... with the different

reporters names...one per check, so we could just cut and paste and ad it in an e-mail to send to them? Figure on an outrageous amount and the proper signature, like one poster here said "We the People."

It would be simpler for those of us who don't want to do the snail mail thing.

[KoKo]

42. Maybe MOVE ON.org. would join in with this...if we have a template?

It might be an action they would like...maybe not..

[Stockholm]

43. Great idea! n/t

[donsu]

45. kick

[villager]

46. let's send Dennis Miller a "check," too!
