You're Invited To Join newsVIPs



Thank you very much for your recent email. Feedback from viewers is very important to us. And we've started newsVIPs to keep in regular touch with news viewers across the country.

We are putting together a group of dedicated news viewers to provide their opinions about news. By listening to people like you who care about news, we'll be able to make sure we do the best job we can for people like you and you have a chance to be rewarded for your participation.

You are part of a select group of news viewers who are being invited to join our new opinion exchange. When you go to http://www.newsvips.com/R.aspx?a=30 and answer our first survey, you will be entered to win a cash prize of $1,000.

We need all types of news viewers, so don't worry what channels or programs you usually watch. Selected entrants will be asked to join newsVIPs. Even if you are not selected as a panelist, you are still eligible for the cash prize.

We promise that we will keep our surveys short and easy to understand and answer.

Your responses may influence what you see on the air and your privacy is guaranteed. In fact, we don't even want to know your last name (unless you are a contest winner and we need to send you the prize) and if at any point you do not want to receive any further survey requests, you will be able to unsubscribe. If selected to join newsVIPs, you will be asked to complete no more than one or two surveys a month.

So click on the link and have your voice heard.

Sincerely,
The newsVIPs Team

about twice.

After being burned by spam, I'm always a bit leary giving my email address out to ... oh, what the heck, already gave it to MSNBC about a zillion times last night. Thanks!:hi:

3. Got The Same Thing When I Emailed Tucker

The Bow-tied Laddie the difference between Free Speech (which Democrats applaud) and Libel (which is what Path to 9/11 was & doesn't enjoy First Admendment protection.) Haven't decided whether or not to respond (my wife is already worried about those black Chevy Suburbans with the dark tinted windows & all those antennas that seem to park outside our place a lot.)
