It has been a very long 7 days for those of us at Ohio Majority Radio but it's been well worth it.
As this message is being sent, we have received 1,360 signatures since the petition went live early on December 27th. Of those signatures, 1,012 people took the time to put in a comment.
Our team has been working hard to make this more than just a place to sign their name and to forget that this is an ongoing process.
We have now put up specific action items that we request you to do, from contacting the station (we give all the information) to writing letters to the editor, to contacting local and national Democratic officials to recruit their help in this cause.
Just today I got an email saying that this has also happened in Buffalo! The right wing has decided that they've had enough of our "free speech" and it's time to shut us down.
Don't let them do that.
Fight back.
Take action.
Please visit Ohio Majority Radio's website again at
http://www.ohiomajorityradio.com/ and scroll down to the Action Items section above the petition.
And as we say on the website in various places, let us know how it went.
This is a work in progress and we need your help and your feedback to make it work for all of us.
And as for Tuesday, one of our initial team members is scheduled to speak live with Stephanie Miller at 9:30am. "Dave From Columbus (Gahanna Actually)" is a regular emailer to Stephanie and she loves to read his "comedy newsletters" as she calls them. Dave will be breaking his silence and actually calling in. Tune in at 9:30am to listen. If you can't make it, the audio will be posted later that evening on our website.
Stephanie, Jim and Chris have been working with us since literally Christmas night on this project and we owe them our thanks.
Remember, that this cannot happen without your help.
Thanks!
The Ohio Majority Radio Team
