"Strike a Blow for the Freedom of Speech  TODAY!"

From: The Media Research Center
Subject: FCC Hearing Tomorrow. Call the Committee Today!
Date: Monday, June 15, 2009 6:54 PM
 
From the Desk of:
David Martin, Executive Vice President

MEDIA RESEARCH CENTER
6/15/2009

Robert & Melinda,
 
Tomorrow morning, the Media Research Center will be delivering hundreds of thousands of petitions on your behalf to the Senate Commerce Committee prior to their FCC confirmation hearing!

The petitions call on the government to reject any and all efforts to censor, limit, or restrain conservative or Christian talk radio.

As we mentioned earlier, President Obama's pick for FCC Chairmain, Julius Genachowski, is a strong proponent of  diversity in the media code for promoting liberalism and liberal views.

Confirmation of Obama's pick could throw open the door to regulation and control of conservative talk radio!

That is why we are writing you today.

Ahead of our massive petition delivery on the morning of the hearing, we are asking ALL members of the MRC Action team to call each member of the Senate Commerce Committee and urge them to make sure that no FCC nominee will regulate or control radio content.

That means:

… NO to the Fairness Doctrine.

… NO to forced diversity in media ownership.

… NO to serving the government's flawed idea of local or public interest.

Leave radio content alone!! Radio content should be driven by the free market.

Let the consumer decide!

We must have any and all nominees on the record supporting 'Free Speech' in advance of their confirmation, and we are counting on you to help make that happen.

After placing your calls, please forward this message to 20-30 friends, urging them to take action with you, first by signing their name to our Free Speech petition and then by making phone calls to members of the Senate Commerce Committee.

These past two weeks have been among the most proactive and exciting in MRC Action team history as we heroically stepped up with petitions, faxes, and phone calls demanding an end to the looming threat against our Free Speech Rights.

Now it's all come down to these confirmation hearings!

Your petitions will be there, now we need tens of thousands of MRC Action team members to strike a blow for Free Speech Rights by calling every member of the Senate Commerce committee and inviting your friends to do the same!

Thanks again for your outstanding support of the MRC!

David

P.S: We must impress on every member of that committee the importance of our Free Speech Rights. We need them to ask the tough questions to ensure that our First Amendment Rights are never regulated into silence.

Please Call today!

*Note: Immediate Action Required!

As far back as the 1970's, several scientists tried to warn the world of an impending mass extinction event in progress.

Most people brushed this off as lunatic-fringe heresy and went on with their 'business as usual' shallow attitude.

By 1994, it was becoming obvious across the board for general biological observers, to notice that a major cascading extinction was really taking place, and that something had to be done about it immediately.

Even average people could witness definitely strange changes in their own back-yard. Seasons came 30 days earlier with plants and trees producing 'different' structures as an ill omen of things to come.

Today we call this climate change/global warming with a giant question-mark toward another Ice Age.

This accelerated natural/unnatural weather cycle is nonetheless severe, unpredictable, destructive and Earth-changing in its current form.

There have been 5 previous mass extinction events within the geologic record, and this sixth one now in progress  may become far worse than any of the previously set precedents.

It was given the title: Holocene Sixth Mass Extinction Event: http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/quaternary/hol.html 

Activists around the world are currently in a death-struggle for the survival of all endangered species, and I personally hope you will join in this fight, if you have not done so already!

Legally petition, protest, campaign, legislate and donate for 'safe' environmental control laws. 

Become mentally and physically ACTIVE, because the life that you may be saving could actually be your own!!!

Support all 'Animal Protection Rights' groups and movements for the voiceless billions.

This is the only rational reactive-response we have to engage, because the survival of the human-race is, and has always been very much participatory!
