Du-ers need to do media blast on Downing Street Memo - Your feedback Pls!

[demo dutch]

Enough is enough!
The memo was published on May 1, IT'S BEEN 10 DAYS! and I am so sick and tired of the media ignoring this.

I think the reason that it's being ignored by the MSM is thousands of letters and emails ARE NOT arriving in their post office and email boxes. I've spoken to a lot of people and noone has even heared about the memo!

I think all of us in the DU community need to do a media blast together. Think about it, if 70,000 people email the MSM everyday for the next week and clog their mailboxes maybe they'll get the message. I have access to a media list that can be used. The trick is to email the message to one outlet and blind CC the rest.
The message should be short and include the link to the London Times

In some of the Du posts people are wondering whether the memo really exists.. check out these links in the UK press
--discusses reaction by PM about the leak

--BBC reaction

The fact of the matter is that even Du-ers that haved posted on this issue, have not gotten an overwhelming response back, so what's up with that?

Let's work together on this
What do you all think??

8. Has there been ANY coverage of this in the US press?

It's all over Europe, but I guess we just can't be bothered with reality. Too busy watching reality TV shows, which are anything but.
