Should we run commercials specifically attacking media whores? |
|
I'm tired of seeing Bill O'Reilly and Ann Coulter trash us and our candidates. In my opinion, the only to fight this is to run ad not only attacking their distortion of the news, but their character and integrity. If they want to wipe the left off the face of the earth, then we should start treating them like the scum they are.

they actually pay these ass wipes to attack us, and we would pay to attack them back. Bad economics.

5. An Ad attacking pundits? |
|
Usually ads are made attacking poloticians. But pundits? I've never seen an ad out there attacking liberal pundits. But they make statements in their books, talk show rants, syndicated columns etc. But the same goes back to them.
Thanks to Al Franken Limbaugh will always be a big fat idiot and O Reilly will be a Lying Splotchy Bully. And thanks to Carville Fox News will be "pond scum". And didn't Bill Maher refer to Ann Coulter as an "ignorant slut?"
Either way, I don't see why there should be any ads attacking them, they attack the left and the leftists (Colmes excluded) shoots them down.

6. They Would Not Run Such An Ad |
|
well The Nation and the few other liberal outlets would, but it will never happen on corporate media company, because they are the whores.

7. better to give people "Lies and the Lying Liars" as gifts |
|
You can give people Al Franken's "Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them" as holiday gifts or birthday presents.
A tv ad criticizing Bill O'Reilly would just help him with publicity. It takes pages to really explain what is wrong with him.

More people watch Wheel of Fortune for half an hour than watch FAUX the entire evening. They only have a voice because WE acknowledge them.
