Here it is, folks: Take Back The Media, Version 2!

[americanstranger]

http://web.takebackthemedia.com or http://www.tbtmradio.com

We've revamped the site to make it more interactive, more informative, more fun!

Among the stuff that we're featuring on the new site:

THREE new flash animations:

'Mourning for America:' Symbolman doing what he does best, stacking up the legacy of Reagan against the fallacy of W;
'Flipper:' A light-hearted romp through the minefield of Bush's flip-flops, by yours truly;
'Prestige:' TBTM's first entry in the DNC Kerry ad contest;

But wait! There's more!!

* Streaming audio of TBTM Radio
* Reader comments on posted articles
* User customization of the site with six graphics/layout themes
* Full search capabilities
* Print and Email article features
* Link and story submission by users

Plus all the commentary, satire and flash work that we've added to the site for over a year now.

We've been working hard on this for a few weeks now, and we can't wait for you to check it out. Let us know what you think!

All for you,
Stranger, Symbolman, Mediababe, bozak and the TBTM crew

5. Thank YOU!

Thanks for the kind words. The new site will make TBTM more effective - it will allow us to do so much more.

We can't be everywhere at once, reading all newspapers, watching all the SCLM shows on all channels. that's where our readers will come in.

Once you sign up, you'll be able to post the articles about media that we may have missed. And if we post an article and you have more info to add to the mix, you can leave it in the comments.

And it'll add a new, interactive component to TBTM Radio. I'm sure Sym will be along later to lay that out for you. :)

We're real excited about this, as you can probably tell.

4. Have I told you lately, you're STILL THE SHITS!

Love the new flashes and the site looks awesome and loads WAY fast...note to Symbolman ...I've gotta go look for it...the text on Negroponte should include the cover-up of mass graves in El Mozote...something HE LIED about and KNEW about. They chalked it up to a conspiracy by the liberal press...then the graves were uncovered in the late 90's.

6. great ! and here's the link to the 9/11 timeframe video...

7. Very Cooooooollll!!!!

nice work!

[americanstranger]

8. Thanks, seventhson....

As you can tell, I'm keeping this thread kicked. :)

The coolest thing on the site for my money - well, one of them - is when you click on the TBTM Radio archives link. It lists every show from the beginning, along with the graphics that we did each week.

It's like some demented gallery or something. :)

14. Come and post one and all

We've worked our little fingers to the bone to create an INTERACTIVE TBTM site - come'on in the water's fine!

and while you're at it check out how Bush doesn't even compare to Reagan and how Reagan crapped all over america in my latest flash MOURNING FOR AMERICA --



took me a week, but at least I missed most of the BS about him changing water into wine that week :)

Enjoy the new site!

28. Symbolman

I have over 3000 poli-pics under my belt (big belt) so I was wondering if you need some help for exchange in jump starting my Flash skills?

fondly
the dime guy,

[symbolman]

29. Sure thing

love your style -- pm me and we'll get it together..

The new site is kicking, thanks to the hundreds for joining - before we switched to this format we'd had over 100 million hits since Dec of 2002 - and now with over 40 animations (or political flash attack ads) we're going to be moving into many new areas for the site..

there are plans for a documentary in the works - and we'll be attending the Boston Democratic Convention with three or more cameras to cover it...

Also working on a giant media project, more about that later -- time to get involved, we're going to get Bush OUT of our White House and Kerry IN..

C'mon over and sign up!
