McCain and the Politics of Hate
We'd like to talk about the pressing issues facing our country: the woeful economy, rising unemployment, the housing crisis, and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. But we can't talk about them because John McCain and Sarah Palin have distracted us with the politics of hate and fear.

FOX Reporter Squashed by Father's Words on Wright
Exactly the type of "journalism" that we need to abandon for the sake of decency. This FOX reporter thought he could make a point with a series of loaded questions but instead gets spanked by well spoken priest, Father Flager.

The real John McCain: Less jobs, more wars.
We're entering record-breaking territory here. Since The Real McCain 2 launched this past Sunday, over 1 million people have seen it! It's been the #1 most viewed video on YouTube, #1 on the viral video chart, and the #2 story on the Digg Election 2008 page. We're reaching an audience that most cable news shows only dream of.
We knew the press's inexplicably blind love for McCain has led to a dearth of accurate reportage regarding his record on the issues. We knew the corporate media have been going far easier on McCain than on either Obama or Clinton. Now that we have the numbers, we know that the general public hungers for the truth about the so-called "Maverick."
We've reached a critical juncture in this presidential campaign. For the last seven years, the mainstream press has sacrificed its objectivity and courage in a pathetic attempt to appease conservatives lest they be painted left-leaning.
We need to continue spreading videos like The Real McCain 2, passing them along to friends and coworkers, and raising the national discourse until our pleas for unbiased, hard-hitting journalism are heard by the corporate media.
And it has to happen now, especially when the presumptive GOP nominee can't get his basic facts right on Iran. Especially when the press is obsessed with Jeremiah Wright but won't go after McCain's endorsements (which he sought) from the viciously anti-Semitic Rev. John Hagee or the deeply bigoted Rev. Rod Parsley. Especially when White House lackey Ed Gillespie is going on Glenn Beck's show to call for a boycott of NBC. Especially when Bill O'Reilly and FOX News are parroting the White House once again, assailing NBC, MSNBC, and their parent company, General Electric. And especially when Karl Rove is attacking Democrats on FOX News, which refuses to identify him as an informal McCain adviser or maxed-out donor.
We'll keep the Real McCain sequels coming, as long as you continue to spread them along. And please donate to the Brave New PAC so that we can have further success with our Real McCain series.

Want to know what happens when we sing FOX's praises?
It is deeply detrimental to the longterm interests of democracy when Democrats praise and support FOX News. This would be true regardless of who that Democrat is, but it's particularly heinous when Terry McAuliffe, the former chairman of the Democratic National Committee, is singing their praises.
"Let me congratulate FOX," McAuliffe said this past week, "because you were the first ones to call [the Pennsylvania primary] for Hillary Clinton." McAuliffe, who is also chairing Clinton's Presidential committee, actually echoed the FOX mantra by calling them "fair and balanced." What is so dangerous about McAuliffe's praise is that FOX is now using his words as a TV ad to prove just how fair and balanced they are. The rest of us know the truth.
Jonathan put together this video as a reminder of how exceedingly unfair and imbalanced FOX actually is. These are just few gems to let McAuliffe and others know that FOX is the foe, has always been the foe, and will continue to be the foe of accurate reporting.
Please help us in this quest bysharing what you think have been the worst FOX moments at Brave New Films: http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/36988-want-to-know-what-h...
We will send the list to McAuliffe as a firm reminder that he must not applaud FOX! It is deeply detrimental to the longterm interests of democracy when Democrats praise and support FOX News. This would be true regardl... more -
Listen to "U.S. Customer Service" and then help publicize how bad it is.
Can you imagine actually getting an "itemized bill" for Bush's War on Terror a.k.a. the Illegal War on Iraq. What if we could call "Customer Service" and complain? Well, we can! We can help spread the word by helping Brave New Films continue making these Eye-Opening Videos.
With today's fast-paced world, voters, especially young ones and those who have been less-than-regular about voting, become distracted. It is important to keep hitting them with short messages that are to the point and have the humor to hold their attention.
Send these clips to friends and ask them to pass them on.
Some financial support is up to you but they have been on the cutting edge in exposing scores of lies from the FAUX "News" Channel all the way to the Bush Administration's misleading and dishonest publicity. Can you imagine actually getting an "itemized bill" for Bush's War on Terror a.k.a. the Illegal War on Iraq. What if we... more -
The FAUX "News" Channel and Bill O'Loofah are at it again!
Just as they had rather report on the trials and tribulations of troubled entertainer, Brittany Spears, instead of reporting anything bad that happens in Washington or Iraq, FAUX "News" Channel's inimitable Bill O'Reilly was recently caught in another of his oral blunders. (He is so often skewered by his inflated ego and his penchant for lying about not spinning things that Keith Olbermann's nickname for him is Bill Orally.)
Watch here as Andrea Mackris' one time wannabe shower-mate again gets himself in trouble by spinning out of control in a zone he has untruthfully-named the "No Spin Zone".
I laugh every time I see FAUX "News" use their ill-gotten slogan of "Fair and Balanced". Then, when they add, "We report. You decide." It makes me mumble, "We Report Rubbish. You Decide If You Want to Take the Bait", under my breath.
I guess there are enough people who have never bothered to check on his objectivity or read about the Andrea Mackris lawsuit that apparently lists, word for word, his recorded sexual suggestions to her over the phone. One such particularly graphic page in the lawsuit she filed is here: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/1013043mackris14.h...
Without further ado, I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions about whether you'd want your children to read his latest book targeting young readers. ("The O'Reilly Factor for Kids: A Survival Guide for America's Families") I wonder how a girl young enough to be his daughter, Andrea Mackris, would have been counseled in the book.
This piece exposes another in his long line of completely moronic O'Reilly Factor statements.
At least Michael Savage's sponsors are leaving him in droves after actually having their attention called to the hate and venom spewed by Savage a.k.a. Weiner on his program "The Savage Nation." I just wish Orally's sponsors would place spots on the "Factor" based on its truthfulness rather than its popularity with the Kool-Aid drinkers who actually believe what they see on the FAUX "News" Channel. Just as they had rather report on the trials and tribulations of troubled entertainer, Brittany Spears, instead of reporting anything... more -
"Radio Rightyland" - a churning sea of hatemongers
We all know how Lush Rimbaugh and Sean Insanity lead the way in keeping the spigot of hate-speak wide open out there in "Radio Rightyland". However, the champion of perverted speech and hate-filled profanity simply has to be one Michael Weiner who changed his name years ago to Michael Savage. This seemingly bitter, old curmudgeon can be heard filling the airways with a steady stream of unimaginable filth using terms more frequently heard when Dick Cheney is addressing Patrick Leahy than on radio.
His mini-tirade on MLK Day about "Civil Rights" was far more "loopy" than the comment from Don Imus.
After Al Gore won the Nobel Prize, "Savage" said "90 percent of the people on the Nobel Committee are into child pornography and molestation, according to the latest scientific studies". Here is the Media Matters page on that comment.

Get involved and help tell Savage's advertisers that you don't think they should help support such divisive and hate-filled rhetoric. Even though we all have a right to free speech, we can have a say in whether or not to have that speech broadcast all over the country by voting with our pocketbooks.
It is imperative for these sponsors to hear from us, though, for that lesson to be learned.
To those sponsors who try to make the excuse that they buy time in "Blocs" and that the individual stations place their ads be sure to tell them that may be true but all it takes is a demand from them that the stations not place any of their ads on Savage's show to distance themselves from this sort of speech.
Thank you to Brave New Films We all know how Lush Rimbaugh and Sean Insanity lead the way in keeping the spigot of hate-speak wide open out there in "Radio Ri... more -
