Call The Media On Its Failure to Cover Politics Properly

I just received this - not sure if it's too late for you to sign the Petition.

However, I strongly urge you to click on the link** below, for an excellent summary of the failings of the Media coverage of the Shut-Down.  Important for anyone who follows Media and its role in democracy.

(Sorry, the link doesn't want to let me copy it into this Blog directly.)

Enjoy!

"Thank you so much for signing my petition telling TV networks to accurately report the fact that Republicans are solely responsible for the government shutdown. More than 150,000 people signed the petition, which will send a strong message to reporters and journalists that they need to do a better job covering the government shutdown.
I'll be delivering the petition signatures later today to CNN, ABC, NBC and CBS.
Before I deliver the signatures, can you help amplify the campaign by sharing it with your friends and colleagues on Facebook, Twitter, or by email?
With the Republicans' shutdown shenanigans continuing in full swing we need to keep building pressure on the media to accurately report on what got us into this mess in the first place.
Thanks again for joining this campaign.
