Right-wingers
run the networks
SMN
This
is in response to Mark Hymans commentary recently
on WLOS-TV that labeled people of good conscience who oppose the illegal,
insane war in Iraq with being un-American.
I know this is a typical charge by right-wing Republicans as a way
to deflect scrutiny from the real issues. But you are very out of
step with the way most Western North Carolina people believe. We can
see that this is another Vietnam, in other words, un-win-able
and morally wrong. And it will bankrupt our country and has put us
in greater harms way than ever, contrary to the lies that were used
to justify it. Because you are the voice for the right-wing media
in this country and your company owns more than 50 TV and radio stations,
I realize that my comments will probably go straight to the trash
can, Mr. Hyman, but I want you to know that anyone who has common
sense and compassion for those suffering, as we do in the mountains
here, can see through your commentaries for what they
really are ... a way to influence the TV news watchers of this nation
to believe that your brand of hatred for those who speak out and intolerance
of those who see through this Republican, right-wing we own
the air waves charade is acceptable. If you really wanted to
show a balanced viewpoint, you would have guest commentators on who
have a different viewpoint. But we know the Republicans changed the
FCC requirements so that is not necessary anymore. We are not fooled.
And I, for one, will mute your The Point from
now on ... the point is, Mr. Hyman, my mind cant be bought and,
hopefully, in the next year, until we can get a legally elected, national
administration that is not greed-based, our nation wont be ruined
for decades to come by those who pay for your comments in The
Point.
