MRC
Action Team Petition
The “Fairness Doctrine” is The
Censorship Doctrine! MRC
Action Team Called to Action!
One obstacle is all that remains before liberals can
implement their radical, rights eroding agenda—conservative talk! Such a move
has little to do with fairness and everything to do with censoring conservative
ideas and speech. To counter this push, the Media Research Center has launched
the Free Speech Alliance, as a way of giving citizens a platform to oppose any
such measure to silence our Free Speech Rights. We urge you to STAND AGAINST THE
CENSORSHIP DOCTRINE by clicking on the links below! Our
petition opposing the “Censorship Doctrine”.
Help the MRC reach more citizens with this important message and call to
protect our free speech rights.
Demand CNN's Drew Griffin Apologize for His Baseless
Attack on Sarah Palin In response to CNN reporter Drew Griffin's

Center is urging all members of their Action Team to email Griffin demanding a
public apology to Palin and National Review's Byron York. Read
the full story. Send

Delivered to Key Media Targets Demanding They Stop Media
Bias in Election Coverage! With billions of dollars at their disposal, and control over
the major information outlets, the liberal media elite are "forcing" their
radical agenda down the collective throats of Americans by skewing election
coverage. With just weeks left before Americans head to the polls, MRC has
delivered hundreds of thousands of grassroots petitions to key media targets all
in an effort to restore political balance to the major media. The goal of this
important petition is to draw national attention to the need for the media to
establish clear, internal procedures and protocols to monitor their own election
coverage and to pledge to provide fair, unbiased reporting. Put the media on
notice and add your name to our petition by clicking on the links below. In
addition to sending petitions, MRC is asking Action Team members to flood these
liberal media targets with emails demanding truth in election coverage. Sign your
petition demanding balanced political coverage. Help the MRC continue leading the charge
in exposing liberal media bias. Send your
email to the Media.
Cheerleaders of the left The Networks have continued slanting news coverage
to favor liberal political candidates, and the 2008 election is no exception.
But even we were surprised at just how blatantly the media have skewed their
reporting to focus on positive news, while ignoring negative news of Barack
Obama. Get our exclusive analysis of every ABC, CBS, and NBC evening news story
on Obama-- every sound-bite, every mention from his first appearance on a
network broadcast in May 2000 through the end of the Democratic primaries in
June 2008, and see for yourself. We‘ve published our findings in a dynamic,
pocket-sized resource entitled, Obama’s Margin of Victory: The Media. This
power-packed resource has quickly become our most requested special report!
In addition to Obama’s Margin of Victory: The Media, MRC analysts have produced,
Editing Reverend Wright's Wrongs, which has also proven to be one of our most
requested special reports. See the level of deception the liberal media engaged
in censoring and manipulating Rev. Wright’s sound-bites, and noxious commentary
to keep the real truth from the American people. Request
these popular reports.
Demand NEWSDAY Apologize for Blaming Conservative Talk on
Tragic Church Shooting In response to Newsday's

demanding a full apology and retraction. Read
the Newsday article. Send

Unmasking the Myths Behind the
Fairness
Doctrine Political activists and even certain U.S. senators have
argued that the federal government should reinstitute the
Fairness Doctrine, which would require broadcasters to air
both sides of controversial issues. Opponents charge that
Fairness Doctrine advocates are trying to reduce the impact
of conservative talk radio.

Demand TIME Magazine
Apologize for Desecrating the Marines Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima
TIME magazine’s recent cover equating the “war on global
warming” to World War II -- and desecrating the iconic photo
of the Marines raising the flag on Iwo Jima -- is one of the most
blatant examples of the media’s outrageous bias on the
Global Warming issue.

is asking ALL members of our team to direct their outrage
toward TIME Magazine and demand a public apology for their
actions.

bunch of thieves," but are they missing the real culprit in
the oil crisis? MRC's Business & Media Institute has just

MRC Calls For Full
Disclosure Of Red Cross Suspect Blood
The Red Cross is refusing to release information on 1,000 units of
suspect blood that were released into the general population and may have
represented a major health risk. The Red Cross was fined $4.6 million by the
FDA for mishandling this blood. Now, the Red Cross will not disclose what
happened to the suspect blood. Was it destroyed? Was it used? Did anyone
become ill? The Red Cross isn’t saying. MRC Action’s petition is calling for
full disclosure and coverage of this story by the mainstream media.

Express Your Outrage
To the NY Times For Their "Tar and Feather" Campaign Against John McCain
The NY Times is showing their liberal bias for all to see in
their attack against Republican Presidential hopeful John McCain.
As facts surface, it's clear that by holding the 8-year-old story, offering
no new information or sources the Times only spotlighted their liberal
agenda in this election year. If the Times had a real story on McCain, why
hold it until after the nomination was secured? The MRC Action Team is
flooding NY Times offices with phone calls, emails and petitions. Demand the
Times retract their story and apologize to its readers by taking immediate
action below:

election-year plan -- to bury conservatives and the conservative movement.

Demand Leading Newspapers Carry a Disclaimer
on "Dear Abby" Columns
For decades "Dear Abby" as been an institution in sage advice for
confused Americans. But a closer look at the advice she is giving is
raising serious concerns over the soundness of that advice. The MRC
has analyzed a year's worth of Abby columns, and discovered that she
consistently takes liberal stands on everything from pre-marital
sex, sexual experimentation, marriage and fidelity and more. The MRC
is urging ActionTeam members to contact her syndicator and major
newspapers urging them to carry a disclaimer on her column. Click on

MRC Action Team Called to Action! MRC Special Report
TV Morning Shows Rooting For Democrats
The ABC, CBS and NBC morning news shows are dramatically tilting their presidential campaign coverage in favor of the Democrats, a seven-month MRC study has found. The TV morning shows have given nearly double the coverage to Democrats (55% of all campaign segments) vs. Republicans (29%), and doled out nearly three times more interview airtime to Democrats than Republicans. Additionally, network reporters used a mostly liberal agenda when questioning candidates from both parties, a distinct favor to the Democrats. To review the full report click on the link below. After reviewing the report, send your personal emails to the network heads responsible for the skewed coverage:

MRC Special Report
Huffington's House of Horrors
When Arianna Huffington founded
The Huffington Post in 2005, she opened her new Internet venture with a
pledge, as quoted by Newsweek: "If you¹re looking for the usual
flame-throwing, name-calling, and simplistic attack dog rhetoric....don¹t
bother coming to The Huffington Post." An MRC content analysis amply
demonstrates that this celebrity-stuffed leftist blog specializes in hate
speech and vicious, profane attacks against conservatives and an ignorant
American public.

America’s Culture War Rages On

values in our nation.

Media Distorts a
Healthy Economy
Network news stories have painted a bleak picture of a U.S.
economy in decline. Reporters treated gas prices as a metaphor
for the economy – only when they were high. And a slowing
housing market coming off two record years was just another club
used against Republican incumbents by a pessimistic press. But
it is simply not true. In the just released MRC News Report,
Bad News Bears How Networks Distort a Good Economy and Batter
President Bush, the truth is uncovered.
