1. Question

How's the reaction on your articles in Danmark? Are other newspapers following you...?

Thanks.

3. Moderate reactions - but they're listening

Dear Myschkin

The list of articles in danish media is short. But it's there.

I have written several articles on the issue. Before christmas Ekstra Bladet invited the two national tv-channels DR and TV2 to see a demonstration of the Blackboxvoting Monkey Hack. DR didn't show up, but TV2 gave it full coverage and had the GEMS software reviwed by an IT security expert (a so-called White Hat Hacker).

December 19 the danish broadsheet Morgen-avisen Jyllands Posten printed an overview of what's happening in Ohio. The article was written by a journalist based in Washington, Klaus Justsen.

The article was translated to english and posted here a couple of days ago by Coilin.

The same day another danish broadsheet, Fyens Stiftstidende, had a long and very detailed overview of the issues not only in Ohio, but in all the keystates. The journalist, Niels-Victor Christiansen, compared the US election and the exit polls with Ukraine.

Besides from that, there has been my writing since november and a couple of bureau articles.

The JP and the Fyens articles are important, though. The issue has seeped from the blogs and from Ekstra Bladet to the more conservative mainstream media.

I have confidence that Kerry's filing in Ohio monday will lift the issue. I wrote a piece for Ekstra Bladet about this on dec. 24 and intend to follow up asap.

You're Amazing!

Every time I read another one of your pieces, I'm even more impressed. America needs a free press like the kind you have.

6. Hi Danish Reporter! I just talked with my Danish friend who is

living in Ibiza, Spain. I told her about your articles, but I would appreciate if you could provide a link to them. I would like to forward them to her, as she can read them in Danish. Also, would you be so kind to let me know of further articles? Much appreciated.

2. Kudos to the foreign press.

The American media issues reports on the Ukrainian election ad nauseum, but there's barely a peep about what's happening in Ohio. It's sickening. Thanks for the link, Danish Reporter.

5. Greetings Bo,

From Stavanger, Norway. God jul!

You are doing Flott work, great picture of you with the PM.

The coverage in the Norwegian press is fubar, I have so far found this;

http://www.vg.no/pub/vgart.hbs?artid=258000

It mostly quotes Bo´s article, the paper is one of two daily national retail Tabloids. Some mention in advance of the election in the other, although nothing substancial.

I have not seen/found a single mention in either the leftist or the intellectualist paper, there was one article in my paper "Stavanger Aftenblad" but it was hidden in a saturday blahblah extra and mostly a dud, qouting nothing solid or really interesting.

Liv Ullmanns daughter was on the debate in advance of the national state owned :] NRK television coverage, she thought the US system where getting too much flak and felt she had to assure people it really isn´t as bad as it sounds and mostly very nice. She lived or lives in the US, thus her expert status...

One of the young parliamentarians from what is called the "Socialist Left Party" were an OSSE inspector, he gave a report on national news about how he were actually quite impressed and hadn´t seen anything suspicious at all, he was in a great mood. He then made a showoff; pretending to read Stupid white men and a really thick book about the american political system, he evidently know his abc. Audun Lysbakken is his name.

I couldn´t believe my eyes today reading this one.

It is incredible to me how obvious they made it.

I´ll easily help out with translations or any other stuff where my scandinavian language skills might come in handy. :] Although my english is not perfect it mostly makes sense, I hope...

I´m at ntllgns kroell start.no

beste hilsener,

7. A Modest Proposal

Can't start a thread yet, but ...

Since U.S. mainstream media (newspapers, news magazines, TV news) won't cover the election fraud story, how about if thousands (tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands?) of subscribers were to cancel their subscriptions citing this as the reason? Of course, boycott TV networks as well. If others think this is a good idea, spread the word and we'll take our money out of their pockets.

8. Good work, guys.

It seems some european assistance would be acceptable and appreciated, at least in terms of Real Big Media Journalism...

Any chance of a link to that article of yours, Danish Reporter, in English, Spanish or French?

9. Thank you Bo for following up on Election Fraud reports soon

you will be the toast of your country when the news reaches them of our problems, Kerry joining back into the fight in Ohio should go a long way as well. He filed in Ohio so that the case filed by the Greens and Libertians will continue with the fight for a fair and fraud free election system in our own country. Thank you.
