Please Write To Anderson Cooper And Demand He Play The Camp Casey Report
that he promised yesterday.

He totally blew ot off over these two freaks:



Here is the link for the Anderson Cooper contact page:
http://www.cnn.com/feedback/forms/form4.html?5

Please take a minute to write and demand to see the report. They were pubbing it like crazy but, given the vagaries of "Breaking News" it seems to have bit the dust.

Please make sure that they do not just shelve the report. Ask them to show it on tonight's show.

This would be really good exposure. We need to get this story run. It is ready to go. They just need to air it.

DUers can be a force when activated. Please get active on this!

1. I have already done so -
did it last night after it failed to air. Let's hope it's run today. Thus far, the website does not have tonight's topic listed.

2. Nominated.
Very important. Thank you for providing all we need in order to do this simple yet very important action. We might not all be able to head to Texas, but we can take actions like this to make sure the rest of the country gets the message!

3. Not To Fail On My Own Task, I Just Sent This...
"I am writing to request that you play the Camp Casey report that you had originally scheduled for last night's show. I was really looking forward to seeing it. I understand that there was breaking news. But, please make sure to air it tonight. It is a great story. Thanks!"

Polite and not too Rah Rah for Cindy. I think that may be a good approach. Just a concerned citizen that wants information you know!

5. Done. Be sure to be polite when you do it
I actually respect Cooper for doing the report , he just needs to air it. I wouldn't be suprised if this has something with CNN being too chicken shit to actually play it and has little to do with Cooper himself.

6. This is what I sent...
Im in diplomacy mode today so I used the positive button on the side of the comment sheet.

"Anderson,

I respect and admire you. I think you are compassionate and empathetic.

Which is why I just don't understand the bait and switch that happened with the Cindy Sheehan report. I'd be flabbergasted if this was actually your decision and I'd be, I guess non-plussed if it was from up top.

Please do what you can to run the story. This is a very very important happening for hundreds of families that have lost loved ones in Iraq. They are right to be angry and they are right to dissent in this matter. You know this deep in your heart and bones.

Do what is right Anderson, do not be afraid of attacks on your character. We will stand up for you as well. Now run that piece tonight!

Blessings,
J"

13. Emailed him and said the American people really aren't interested
in the Runaway Bride moving a lawn. That Cindy's story is history in the making, and according to the polls, most Americans are interested in Cindy's message. Dumb shits (didn't include that).

I am always suspect of those positive negative clicks before they are submitted.

16. Question!!!
Yesterday, I was switching between 360 and Hardball (with David Gregory). I saw Cooper TWICE say they would be going out to talk with Cindy Sheehan ON THAT SHOW.

By the end of the show, I never saw an interview OR story on Camp Casey. Did I miss it?
