Please send cspan a suggestion, RE: 9/24

[babylonsister]

Perhaps we'll be able to push an agenda to see what's going on in DC next weekend.
[e-mail] accepts suggestions. Please request that CSPAN air the activities in DC! Thank you.

1. If they aren't covering it, we need to call and suggest it.

Nominated for truth. Video won't lie about the numbers.

Good evening. I am emailing to request that C-Span attempt to televise some part of the anti-war events taking place this coming weekend. While it is fairly certain the more corporate stations will not be participating, as an American who cannot attend, I would hope C-Span would step up to the plate, and allow me and my fellow citizens to witness democracy in action. Please. Thank you...

Sent email requesting complete coverage of the weekend's pro-peace events to help us promote peace and support our troops by bringing them home alive and now.

Thanks for the idea. Hope others will also write/call.

5. thank you! Done!!!

I appreciate all the fair coverage of events I can find on your station. Yours is my favorite one to turn into because I know I can trust you to show the real deal, without spin and without giving in to corporate sponsors. Thank you so much.

I'd also like to ask that you show the pro-peace rally in DC next weekend as well as interview people who will be going to lobby the Representatives on Monday. This is an exciting weekend for all of us and it shows that average Jane and John Does really just want to bring these soldiers home in one piece and alive.

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at yahoo.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following
addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

<[e-mail]>:
Sorry, I couldn't find any host named cspan.org. (#5.1.2)


:wtf: Is there another email address I should send my comments to?

[fight4my3sons]

Looks like the dash is a new addition...

24. Confirmation that C-SPAN will cover this weekend's events

I received an e-mail confirmation that this weekend's DC rally will be on C-SPAN.
Here's the e-mail text:

"I just spoke to someone on our assignment desk and they said this would be
live on C-SPAN.
I'll keep an eye out for you!"
