Default CBS NEWS - An Idea

If someone else has already made this suggestion, I apologize.

CBS apparently takes great pride in raising the fear in the hearts of
Americans. Lately that fear has been focused on the GA news item, which I
didn't see because I don't watch CBS news.

I began thinking that the reason this "grab your socks, the world's coming
to an end" news item on GA may not be because of the threat GA poses, but
rather because GA is not a sponsor of CBS News. Truck rental companies are
or certainly have the potential of becoming a sponsor and surely, a network
news team wouldn't "blast" their sponsor, would they?

So, how about AOPA and the Be A Pilot organization buy some advertising time
during the CBS News show and talk/show how great GA really is?

Having just taken great pride in slamming GA, I wonder what the CBS News
management team would think as they watched, and knew America was watching,
a family enjoying a flight through the open skies over the Rockies or the
wheat lands or maybe even showing the joy in landing at a GA airport that
has a great BBQ place close by....

Just an idea.

:-)
