Hi
I started a thepoint.com campaign to help Peter Schiff get on 60 minutes, after hearing on his radio show that he had a tough time getting on 60 minutes I figured there are enough austrians and fans of Schiff on youtube, facebook to let CBS know how many would protest that choice. The idea is that each person who joins sends an complaint in on the 60-minutes page and tell why they should get Peter Schiff on. http://www.thepoint.com/campaigns/campaign-0-1935 What I am hoping is that enough people join the campaign so that we will flood the CBS inbox. Many people already send them mail and there then needs to be an overwhelming amount e-mail to them.
However you feel about Schiff, minarchism etcetera is not the debate here. The debate here is the tactic to get the message in as much popular media and press as possible. How many people have "found" Austrian economics because of his appearances on news channels and other outlets?
I hope there are people on this forum who like the idea and are willing to send their complaint to the CBS and I welcome any constructive criticism or support of course!
Hope it works.
Yeah, we will need more people to spread it around libertarian and austrian channels for it to have any effect.
But there has been little activity on this forum!
They could have aired the Stossel Interview with Ron Paul years ago. That would have been amazing.
They'd rather have Rooney talk about his breakfast and how we should have ID tattoo's.
