Call to Action: Combat Fox News’s Slant Towards Nussle
May 9th, 2006 at 12:34am Chase Martyn
Sure, it’s obvious from his record deficit that he’s a Bush crony, but now that Nussle is getting free publicity from Fox News this morning, it’s certifiable. This is from a campaign email a few days ago:
Watch Jim Nussle talk with E.D, Brian and Steve of FOX and Friends this Tuesday about his vision to make Iowa the Renewable Energy Capital of the World. Jim will discuss his bipartisan “Independence from Oil With Agriculture (IOWA) Act,” which helps ease prices at the pump for hard-working Iowans.
That’s at 7:30AM Central in case you want to watch him talk for a few minutes without being interrupted by difficult questions or by pesky Democrats who also happen to be running for Governor (and, in at least one case, who happen to be leading Nussle in the polls).
And although I’m sure this doesn’t come as a surprise to you, it might come as a disappointment. If you want to tell them what you think, email friends@foxnews.com or call 888 369 4762. And please, if you get a good response post it as a comment. I emailed about 36 hours ago and never got a response.
(Also feel free to email Jim Nussle and tell him how hokey you think naming a bill “the IOWA Act” is — especially just months ahead of the gubernatorial election.)

They should create an idontwannabefriends@foxnews.com address.

Didn’t Culver use that same phrase, “Renewable Energy Capital of the World” when he was here for Grinnell’s early primary? If not verbatim, he said something remarkably similar. Or maybe not so remarkable–someone running for Govenor of Iowa thinks we should be promoting ethanol? What?!? That’s crazy….

Warning!! Watching Fox News is dangerous to your Intelligence!
Hopefully we will be seeing more and more stickers like this around town. .
I recently emailed them asking how do they wake up every monring to go to work knowing that they will be putting out so much misinformation and everyone knows it?
Doesn’t the story of the Emeperors’s New Clothes mean anything to them?
