I just sent CNN this message. |
|
You are running a Health Care ad that is patently false.
The ad is sponsored by 60+ and is full of false statements.
Meanwhile you refused to allow the factually accurate ad concerning the vast income made by the head of United Health Care while it(UHC) denies coverage to people who have been paying United for years.
Running a false ad while denying an accurate ad is bad for the country and I will report my concerns to the FCC.
You have enormous power to inform. Shame on you, CNN, for choosing to mis-inform.

1. where did you send the email? |
|
the comments area on CNN tends to direct one to a specific show. How do you contact the FCC? I'd love to join you in that. :o)

2. Next time you send a message tell them you also will post it on a popular website |
|
No need to mention DU in particular, but the threat of extended exposure about their actions might have added weight with those corporate types.
They hate adverse publicity.

4. The FCC has NO control over cable content. |

None.
The only control you have over CNN is to write their advertisers.
Edit to add: The FCC has marginal control over BROADCAST content, and even that is loose, at best.

and yeah, how does one report their concerns to the FCC?
i doubt they'll do anything, but at least they (the M$M) should start getting the idea that people are on to their bullshit and corporate propaganda.
what's 60+ btw?
