America’s Viral Epidemic is IGNORANCE
By Michael Lang on Jul 9, 2008 in Political Commentary
America’s Viral Epidemic is IGNORANCE. Let me explain……
What does the fashion habits or opinions of or have to do with Universal Healthcare, Poverty or the war in Iraq? NOTHING! So why is the mainstream media making them fair game and a factor of who will lead our country for the next 4 to 8 years?
There is an epidemic that has grown beyond control over the years and if not arrested, will forever destroy our already damaged . This illness is viral in nature…spread by the Mainstream Media …and is called IGNORANCE!
The primary symptom of this disease is: If it is said on television, it must be true!
So when people like Rush Limbaugh, Bill O’Reilly or Sean Hannity spew their one-sided ignorance, there is an army of listeners and viewers ready to embrace the virus and share it as ignorance is highly contagious!!!
Over 428,000 people have signed a petition telling FOX to stop their racist and hate-filled smears against Barack Obama. If we, the virus killers, hit half-a-million signatures, we can draw media attention and put pressure on FOX’s advertisers.
Plus, Robert Greenwald’s Brave New Films released a video this morning documenting FOX’s ongoing smears against Michelle Obama. Please check out the video, and then sign the petition calling on FOX to stop peddling racism—and then tell your friends.
FOX is shameless: in the last several weeks alone, they’ve “confused” Obama’s name with Osama’s, referred to Michelle as “Obama’s Baby Mama,” and called an affectionate fist bump by Barack and Michelle a “terrorist fist jab.”
Our partners at ColorOfChange.org will hold a major event next week to deliver boxes and boxes of petition signatures to FOX’s headquarters. If we can deliver half-a-million signatures, other media outlets will have a powerful story to report—and FOX’s advertisers will get the hint that it’s not a good idea to associate their products with FOX’s hate-speech.
