| Dear Business Person; I am writing to you today because I think it is
only fair that I inform you that beginning today, I will no longer be purchasing your
products. I thought I would give you the courtesy of knowing why.
Freedom of Speech and Freedom of the Press are in danger in America, and it's a
disturbing trend. I, like many other Americans, find myself wondering why my elected
officials have not enforced the law in regard to the 2000 elections.
Equally disturbing is the fact that people like myself are arrested and harrassed all
over the country when they ask legitimate questions about events in this country, they're
called unpatriotic by our leaders and the media, and we're left to wonder why there
so few leaders who even attempt to disclose the truth.. and every time they do, they are
subjected to organized character assassination, constant public ridicule, lies and
slander... and when they try to defend themselves, they are accused of being just plain
wacky. And most often, these people who have endured this kind of attack have been
telling the truth.
I firmly believe that this sort of behavior, and misuse of the public airwaves for the
purpose of propagandization for political purposes is despicable. And I believe
that NBC News, MSNBC and CNBC have provided the best worst example of this kind of abuse.
People look to the press for the truth. The press has a responsibility they
have not met.
Since profits from my purchases of your products go to support your advertising
campaigns, that means I'm paying for your advertisements, the ones playing on those
stations. That means that I'm paying to support something I can not support.
So I will no longer do so.
I urge you to absorb your initial annoyance and amusement with this form of political
action. Blame an unresponsive government for its necessity. As an American citizen,
not just a business person, I request that you search your own conscience, and take
appropriate actions to defend your right to free speech, as well as being able to have
confidence in the information we are provided on the most powerful medium on the planet.
None of us likes having to face corruption... to believe that we have been misled or
betrayed. That's the denial that's overcome America. It's time for the denial
to end.
I urge you to go to www.democraticfundamentalism.org
where you'll find more detail on the BOYCOTT, as well as something on the
site called The Verdict. It's hard to miss.
Sincerely,
Chuck Rehn
