[Peace-discuss] Letter in DI

[E.Wayne Johnson]

The problem with O'Reilly is not just that he is mean-spirited but also that he won't let you talk and will cut you off if he you start to make valid points that disagree with his neoconservative prejudices.  

Not all Fox commentators are pro-war.  Judge Napolitano for example.

  Why did you turn down O'Reilly?  Will you do Neptune tomorrow (Wednesday) so I can advertise you as the man who spurned Fox?

    Thanks Mort,

    The responses are indeed disheartening, but it's impossible to tell what population they are coming from. This whole thing has gone viral. I've been called to be interviewed on WGN radio in Chicago tomorrow. I also received a call from Fox to go on the O'Reilly program tonight, which I turned down.

    I would also add that it's easy to fall back into "it's the yahoos" mode in reading these comments, but we need to stay focused on those in power.

    Thanks for writing your good letter, David, and letting us know that it was published in the DI. One can only be disheartened by (most of) the responses. Perhaps the Block I not only chanted in unison at the game, but are chanting in unison in their malevolent and/or ignorant responses to your letter.  


    It might be useful to have those responses see the light of day.

    P.S. It would be useful to know how many read the messages on this listserve. If you do read them on a more or less regular basis, please let me know by simply replying with subject line "test".
