"On Friday I received a phone call from a good friend who works at CBS, I've known her for years and she is a Producer for some of the news programs, one well known one in particular. She tipped me off that the news media is in a "lock-down" and that there is to be no TV
coverage of the real problems with voting on Nov. 2nd. She said
similar "lock-down orders" had come down last year after the invasion
of Iraq, but this is far worse--far scarier. She said the majority of
their journalists at CBS and elsewhere in NYC are pretty horrified--
every one is worried about their jobs and retribution Dan Rather
style or worse. My source said they've also been forbidden to talk
about it even on their own time but she was pissed and her
journalistic and moral integrity as what she considers to be a gov't
watchdog requires her to speak out, while be it covert and she
therefore asked me to "spread" the word... She said that journalism
and the truth is at stake. She said another friend of hers, a
producer at MSNBC, said that an anchor by the name of Keith
Olbermann had brought it up on his show on Friday eve and the axe
came down. He's at least fighting back and talking about it on
his "Blog", but she said that people there are worried that he's
going to be fired by higher ups. She said at this point the only way
that the "real news" was going to be if the people started talking
about it and made a big enough stink about it to our elected
officials, the FEC, and "noise" to the international media, that our
own media won't have any choice but to cover it. (Yes, this is really
happening in the good ole' supposed "democratic" free press of the US
of A). The only place you'll see this talked about right now is on
the internet and on AirAmericaRadio."
Everyone--this is serious....I can't emphasize it any more than
saying if there was ever a time to speak up and take action it is
NOW. If you are feeling sick to your stomach (like me) about the
possibility of 4 more years under Bush and the future of our country,
and yet you feel helpless, here's your opportunity to take action.
Imagine if you saw a loved one drowning--what do you do? Well, our
country's democracy is drowning and she needs us. In an email I sent
you last night, I used the F-word--FRAUD and mentioned to you that I
felt strongly that there is a lot of mounting evidence that this
election was not clean. I say that not only out of a result of my
observations while out in the field as a poll watcher in the key
battleground state of Ohio, I say it with the knowledge and
information of reports that have been circulating around the country
in various voting precincts involving irregularities and problems
with the voting machines and numbers not matching up with the exit
polls or actual numbers of registered voters in various precincts.
I've been busy researching this issue and compiling for you below
some details of these reports and where you can get more info:
To believe that Bush won the election, you must also believe:
1- That the exit polls were WRONG...(remember--they have been used
for over a decade and considered reliable)
2- That Zogby's 5pm election day calls for Kerry winning OH, FL were
WRONG. He was within a less than 1/2 % point margin of error in his
2000 final poll and previous polls for other elections.
3- That Harris Poll last minute polling for Kerry was WRONG. They
were also within a 1/2% point margin of error in their 2000 final
poll.
4- The Incumbent Rule
(that undecideds primarily break at the end for the challenger) was
WRONG.
5- The 50% Rule was WRONG (that an incumbent doesn't do better than
his final polling)
6- The Approval Rating Rule was WRONG (that an incumbent with less
than 50% approval will most likely lose the election)
7- That Journalist Greg Palast was WRONG when he said that even
before the election, 1 million votes were stolen from Kerry. He was
the ONLY reporter to break the fact that 90,000 Florida blacks were
disnfranchised in 2000.
8- That it was just a COINCIDENCE that the exit polls were CORRECT
where there WAS a PAPER TRAIL and INCORRECT (+5% for Bush) where
there was NO PAPER TRAIL.
9- That the surge in new young voters had NO positive effect for
Kerry, even though it was the largest number of youth voters 18-29
ever and a huge jump from 2000 and they were over 55% in favor of
Kerry. >> 10- That Bush BEAT 99 to 1 mathematical odds in winning the
election.
11- That Kerry did WORSE than Gore against an opponent who LOST the
support of SCORES of Republican newspapers who were for Bush in 2000.
12- That Bush did better than an 18 national poll average which
showed him tied with Kerry at 47. In other words, Bush got 80% of the
undecided vote to end up with a 51-48 majority--when ALL professional
pollsters agree that the undecided vote ALWAYS goes to the
challenger.
13- That Voting machines made by Republicans with no paper trail and
with no software publication, which have been proven by thousands of
computer scientists to be vulnerable in scores of ways, were NOT
tampered with in this election.http://groups.yahoo.com/group/anti_cnp/message/579
