About a year ago, Paul Edwards designed, printed, photocopied, and hung simple text posters reading:

IRAQ IS A
TINY COUNTRY
THAT POSES A
LARGE THREAT
TO YOUR
ATTENTION

That's never been more true than today. A major military offensive is launched the day after the election, diverting media attention from mounting evidence of election fraud. What to do about it? Demand more balanced coverage from your media!

can you click on iraq?
Remember, editors are human. They respond to pressure from their "constituency." Here's a quick email I sent to yahoo.com, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, and the Seattle Times (the daily news sources I encounter most frequently):

To Whom It May Concern:
What happens in Iraq is of interest, but it does not merit daily blow-by-blow front page coverage. Not when evidence of election fraud continues to mount. What happens in Fallujah has far less bearing on the freedom and security of the American people than does the undermining of its democratic processes. Election 2004 is not over until the vote count is certified on December 14, 2004. Please devote more conspicuous coverage to incidents of polling and counting irregularities as they arise.

Sincerely,
Robert Zverina
