Just before November 2, Dr. Bob Fitrakis and Harvey Wasserman published "Twelve ways Bush is now stealing the Ohio vote" at freepress.org.
Widely circulated throughout the internet, the piece proved prophetic. But what really happened in Ohio has been "locked down" by the major media.
If another stolen presidential election slips by undocumented, we can only tremble for the future of American democracy.
Working here in Columbus, we've thoroughly documented the dark corners of this tragic election. We're now turning it all into the definitive book and documentary film.

This week, Sinclair Broadcasting, the largest owner of local television stations in the U.S., ordered its 62 stations to preempt regular programming to air an anti-Kerry documentary just a few days before the election.
Sinclair's mission is clear: sway the election in favor of an administration that lets companies like Sinclair get even bigger. It's great for Sinclair's bottom line — terrible for our democracy.
This is not about 'liberal' or 'conservative.' It's about corruption, the threat to democratic discourse, and the manipulation of elections. Together, we can stop them.

Fed up with the lack of local news programming, limited alternatives for news gathering and reporting or the lack of diversity even in the music line-ups on your RADIO dial? NOW is the time to get your feedback to the FCC about your stations’ license renewal. Giving feedback to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for current commercial and non-commercial licencees’ contract RENEWALS involves a few steps but may be worth it.
All Ohio radio stations are licensed by the FCC and upon their expiration on October 1, 2004, those granted renewal licenses now will be licensed until 2012, eight years from now! This is a change from what used to be three years, then five years, and now eight years. This means it will be another eight years before we can make such an impact on licensing for radio stations and the use of the public’s airwaves. So, what can you do?

You all know how awful Clear Channel is with their push of Rush, Bush and the Iraqi war. It has gobbled up populist stations and muzzled free speech. Now, it seems they spread their hate to animals, too. The following information is not for the faint of heart, so take care before you read on. These events happened at Clear Channel stations.
A Denver disc jockey (KPBI-FM) was recently convicted of animal cruelty for orchestrating a stunt in which a chicken was dropped from a third-story balcony to see if it could fly. In Wheeling, a steer’s execution was recorded and aired for 129 stations during a live broadcast. Another similar event involving a Clear Channel DJ (KEGL-FM) in Dallas involved feeding a rabbit to a snake – on the air. (This station was forced to record a public apology on the air and publicize animal welfare information on their web site.)
In addition, Clear Channel’s Tampa station DJ was just charged with felonious animal cruelty for castrating and then butchering an unanesthetized pig in the parking lot of the station. Many consider this a ratings stunt. The animal was screaming in pain.

It's time to draw a line in the sand of Wyoming's Red Desert. The White House is proposing to let some of their biggest campaign contributors in the oil, gas and coal industries drill more than 1500 wells across a wilderness that was once a famous passageway for the Pony Express - the Jack Morrow Hills in the Red Desert in Wyoming. The Hills are also home to North America's largest antelope and desert elk herds and the site of rare prehistoric rock art painted over 2,000 years ago.
I wish I could tell you that this proposal is just about drilling in one place, but it's not. It's a trial balloon to test our strength. If the polluters can get access to an area as historically and ecologically sensitive as the Jack Morrow Hills, they'll know that with enough political pressure and campaign donations, they'll be able to drill, mine, and log just about anywhere – even in national monuments.
