Local radio station urges boycott of ABC
I was driving home from work this afternoon, listening to a local pop/hip-hop/rock radio station. Imagine my delight when the DJ took at least 3 or 4 minutes calling for a boycott of ABC and urging people not to watch tomorrow and Monday night's 9/11 Docu-fiction! He explained what was going on, quoted Richard Clarke, the whole nine yards. Apparently they made the same plea yesterday afternoon, but I didn't hear it then.

What's the big deal you ask? I'm in northeastern North Carolina in a fairly conservative area. (Although most of the DJ's on this particular station seem to be of the liberal persuasion.)

Keep up the good work everyone!

2. A tale about BOYCOTTING ABC
That program they have, DANCING WITH THE STARS, is a favorite of a family member, who pleaded with a pile of us to sign up on the ABC website in order to vote for the favorite of this family member (which happened to be George Hamilton, and then that Nick fellow).

Well, we did, to be sports, but none of us bothered to unsubscribe to the ABC newsletters....until now.

They ask for a REASON for unsubscribing, when you so do. We punch in other, and provide the following comments: BOYCOTT OF ABC/DISNEY due to airing of fictional slander about 911...or variations on that theme.

If ya wanna be clever, sign up today, cancel tomorrow...if you don't already get an ABC newsletter in your junk mail.
