CJ Campbell (always) says: The media will not air rational responses...

Look, my point is just that some restraint is called for. Pilots are the people
who get drunk and fly over controlled airspace and nuclear power plants, as
accurately reported in the media this week. The media do a deplorable job of
ginning up sensational stories, as proven by a throwaway time-filler CBS
mini-piece this week. But not always. Not even most of the time.

Go ahead and holler about this awful story. I am. But to go on and presume
from that that all "the media," from Kitplanes to the Enquirer to Reuters are
always despicable liars about everything is an overreaction.

Get it out of your system. But if you're going to maintain that they're all
that bad, don't ever again quote us a story you got from any newspaper, tv or
radio report anywhere. If you didn't see it happen, there's no reason to foist
on people a secondhand report you acquired from The Media.

That's my last rant on the subject. For now. Here.

Find all the sponsors of that program and let's start a major letter
campaign to them.

Why should we support companies that support programs that want to take away
our freedoms?

Treasonous behavious. CBS should be ashamed at themselves.



well you vote for politicians who do the same so what?
