RUMMY TV- DoD Reality TV coming soon

Today, from Arianna Huffington

"Now the Bushies are taking things to the next level. Not content to buy their press coverage retail, they are producing and distributing their own news network. And, no, I'm not talking about Fox. It's the Pentagon Channel, a 24/7 niche network brought to you by the Department of Defense...

DoD television execs (there's a new phrase) say Pentagon Channel viewers can expect programming that is "a mix between CNN and C-SPAN"--combining military news and lifestyle shows with live coverage of military briefings, speeches by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Congressional appearances by The Man himself, Secretary of Defense Don Rumsfeld.

So fire up those TiVos, disinformation fans; Rummy TV is coming soon to a flat screen near you. "If you hate the truth, you'll love DoD TV!"...

Which is all well and good. But, as is so often the case with the Bush administration, the Pentagon Channel's programming appears to have been prepared by--to quote Jeff Gannon--"people who seem to have divorced themselves from reality."...

2. Call Dish right now and tell them you don't want it

I was told by someone in the executive offices that if enough Dish customers call up to complain, they will consider REMOVING it. Also call your congress person and ask why taxpayer money is being used to prepare this, particularly when it's against federal law to use public money for propaganda.
