HERE' S MY E MAIL OF SUPPORT FOR CBS & DAN RATHER

TO: evening@cbsnews.com


Subject: DON'T CAVE IN

Dear Dan and CBS Execs:

Don't cave in to the pressure of the WH and their thugs.
If you do no American news agency will ever try to tell the truth of what is really going on in this country - and freedom,which is protected (or used to be) by the Fourth Estate, the press, will be dead.

Dan was right years ago, when he said "Courage". We're backing you.

Come visit us at www.DemocraticUnderground.com General Discussion.
We're 50,000 Democrats and Progressives who are very politically aware.

9. Wow. Quick reply.
Here's what I got back. Guess they've got an autoresponder on the box... although I guess it's a pretty clever autoresponder to tell the positive emails from the negative ones. Although I guess "Bravo!" and "GO CBS" could have been tip-offs. :7

----------------------------------------
Thank you for taking the time to write. Your support is appreciated. As you can imagine, we've been inundated with negative emails. It's refreshing to hear from a viewer such as yourself. We strive for the highest level of journalistic integrity and will continue to do so, no matter what the cost. A free society demands free, unmuzzled media _expression.
Regina,

CBS Evening News
