They need to be convinced the American public isn't going to stand by while they allow publishing of hate and lies as well as terrorism via NRA network.

TP has been reporting daily on the status of 30+ corporation with NRA ties.
So, what's up. I was very pleased at earlier news today in the DU post.

*THINK PROGRESS, NRA ASSOC. CORPS WEBSITE LIST: *FED EX* REMAINS ? (8:27 PM, Feb. 23)

Can anyone C&P IMAGE of Think Progress' scratched & open corps in Link above? Tx.)

Per HUFFPO Article above, Feb. 23, 2:11 PM: Re FED EX:

"FED EX: Fed Ex offers NRA members discounts from 18% to 26% on domestic and international shipping.
*A page on the NRA website describing Fed Ex offers has been removed, but the shipping company has not made a statement about any changes in its relationship with the gun-rights group.
GUNS DOWN, an anti-gun group has been petitioning Fed Ex (Link) to end its affiliation with the NRA for over a year."
