This was initally a very private and personal introduction I wrote to an email I was forwarding Bill O’Reilly. I sent it to some friends and family and even an old high school teacher with whom I recently connected. I started to get a little choked up towards the end when the magnitude of the fight against these mother fuckers really hit me. Please share and recommend to your loved ones, because I am terrified of these thugs, but I’ll be damned if I’m going to sit back and let them call ME INSANE.
As fellow travelers who have had your eyes open regarding the conduct of this nation over the recent years, either recently or for quite some time, Bill O’Reilly believes you are nuts. What is the act of insanity that you committed? Well you, like me, probably think Fox News is run by a bunch of propagandist liars who lead the charge to invade Iraq, and twice heralded the coming of Bush (of whom they are now rooting for his third term). I know… we’re loons.
With that said, please read the following message I am forwarding regarding the recent FreePress.net event. It’s an organization that I highly recommend you pay close attention to with regard to honest criticism of the establishment media’s behavior. And be sure to keep your friends informed. I’m not going to let these assholes lie us into another disaster.
These are important times we live in, and I love you all very much. I am terrified of what my country has demonstrated itself to be capable of. That said, here’s the email from FreePress:
———
Last night, Rupert Murdoch launched a laughable attack against you, the media reform movement, and journalism itself.
His on-air bully Bill O’Reilly called us “crazy” and “fascist” — you, me, and the millions of others who want media reform. These people are “doing a lot of damage to America,” O’Reilly yelled. Our crime? Calling for journalism that’s more honest, just and accountable to the public.
When Bill O’Reilly goes after you, you must be doing something right. So we’ve decided to return the favor, and tell him two things: (1) Thanks so much for the compliment and (2) please stop pretending to be a journalist.
Visit the link below to sign the letter and thank Bill O’Reilly for proving once again that Fox News Channel has nothing to do with real journalism in America.
