ANYONE IN NEW YORK - BE A PART OF THE TODAY SHOW'S CROWD
Show up with signs with your messages - keep them hidden until the camera pans on you and then WHAMMO!

Screw Couric.

If only that were possible. I fear it's a few decades late..
Pre-natal even may've been too late.

5. "poor Al Roker"? He once refered to George Voinovich as...
a "good friend". The Today Show is 100% GOP Propaganda. GMA and The Early Show are no where near as bad as The Today Show.

10. though that show is brain pollution and has been so for
many years, those that have the fortitude to do so should so.

I'd guess.

19. I like this slogan:
Impeach King Anti-Midas!


You've got impeach, King for his dicator powers, and anti-Midas for how everything he has done has turned to shit.

windows to the street outside - same kind of sign holding could go on there.

34. I'm pretty sure they screen (censor) the signs that people bring
since you NEVER see political messages on them. For a while there were groups of paid people who would show up with advertising signs and goofy hats, etc. They seem to have stopped that also.

My suggestions would be to have a sign which folds to hide the REAL sign. Then re-fold with the real sign showing right before they go to the crowd pan. And my best guess is that they will at the very least ask you to leave once they see the sign. A cell phone and a friend may be handy for telling you when you are or have been on camera.

38. Print your message on a "scarf"
you unfurl at the proper moment. Or on a large hankie kept in your pocket. Hold up a book the public should read or just yell something like "We salute you Katie Nazi!!!" or "Katie drinks the Koolaid!!!" real loudly when the mike comes your way.

Good luck. They have egoes the size of Manhattan - all of them - so Katie may bring her middle-aged self over the barrier and try to slap you. That would be great TV!!!!!
