1. Cspan just shows political events as they happen

it's not really part of their job to check for accuracy. their whole thing is just to show political things going on .

[papau]

3. NO - C-span has 3 crews - and rejects liberal events daily - this is bias

and dishonest

May as well cover a Nazi picnic.

[JI7]

6. ok, then it would be better to complain about lack of coverage of liberal

events.

since cspan doesn't check for accuracy no matter which event, it wont matter much to complain about that.

but to call them on their lack of balanced coverage for different views might work.

9. It did not work during the election - and I have the phone bills to prove

I tried!

The scheduling is biased toward the right wing - and as you say - how far right they do not worry about.

2. A Bruce Eberle Group

Whose MillionsofAmericans.com was merged with GOPUSA. Did Bruce pay Bobby a big chunk of change to "manage" Millions of Americans? Is that where the money and influence came from for Jeff Gannon to get into the White House? And now his group is giving the Swifties an award?

This is unreal.

7. Anyone in the mood to e-mail c-span

ought to include a sentence or two about Washington Journal having given professional hatemonger Coulter an hour of facetime this morning. How low can they go?

8. Done and here is a copy....

Dear Sirs,


It is well substantiated that the SBVT conducted a massive campaign of propaganda using unsubstantiated and already discredited accusations that seriously derailed the opposition to their chosen candidate in a Presidential election in 2004. Led by a man with ties to the Nixon administration, who even back then attacked Senator John Kerry for his lawful disagreement with the war in Vietnam, conducted a virulent attack campaign in which they received legal advice from a member of the Bush Cheney 2004 Campaign which was illegal and necessitated the lawyers resignation and apology.

The SBVT member’s actions in whole and in part were examined and found to be fraudulent. The statements made by this group in commercials and in interviews were discredited and proven to be out right lies about a presidential candidate who returned from the Vietnam War with a differing opinion about the reasons for us being there and this countries actions there under the leadership of Republican President Nixon. Your airing of Zell Miller giving them a reward for these actions can only lead me to question your credibility in the world of unbiased news.

It is my understanding that your web site has a link to the FreeRepublic.com web site, a known right wing site used to disseminate misinformation and opinion that James Guckert AKA Jeff Gannon, fake journalist and pictured in his own porn web sites offering his ’service’ for $200 per hour or $1200 per weekend, used frequently while he was sitting in the White House Press Room and asking loaded questions of both Ari Fleischer, Scott McClellan and President George Bush. Evidence has shown this was taking place as early as February 25,,2003 before Talon News existed which was March 29, 2003.





Please cancel your participation in this event and in the FreeRepublic.com web site in order that higher standards of conduct and journalism can be upheld.
