Please help me out here to stop the MSM from bashing the democrats.
I have a feeling that the bad media coverage will just get worse as this 2006 election approaches. What I would like to do is get a list going of their advertisers and try to build a blaster. I have no experience in making a blaster of this sort. Any information would be helpful. It would be nice to organize and boycott their advertisers.

1. A Kossak has a site with boycotts of Hannity advertisers but only one post
since September though they just posted on Kos. Good info though:

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2006/1/20/192934/651

"We need to start an organized boycott... A massive boycott would sure get their attention, especially since ratings is all they care about. How do we go about doing that? I wish all the liberal sites would all call for a boycott of Tucker Carlsons, Chris Matthews and Joe Scarboroughs shows."

http://www.adnausea.org/
"I've been trying to organize at Ad Nausea and for a while, things were going fairly well. We began with Hannity as I found him to be the most offensive.

Ad Nausea is a small site, and it takes a lot of work to keep people informed. Any help would be most welcome.

We would love to go after all of these "good folks" who masquerade as "truth tellers." Unfortunately, without a huge onslaught of people emailing, calling, and writing to the advertisers, they will continue to fund these bullies with microphones. The networks and the "hosts" of these shows will start to listen when it effect them personally.... in their wallets.

Visit Ad Nausea and help us stop Hannity's lies, one advertiser at a time..."

FireDogLake used to have a poster with a site called FUSHIONER with petitions and lists of email addressess of newspapers.

3. Could we put something like daily targets of adverisers
here on DU. We get a lot of traffic on here that a lot of the smaller sites do not get. Maybe we could could start something like we used for the Sinclare group.
