Like Pavlov’s dog, President Obama rings the bell, and the liberal media respond. Last week, he appeared on five Sunday morning news programs, and was the sole guest on David Letterman’s Late Show the next day, where Dave swooned, “I can’t tell you how satisfying it is to watch you work.”
Talk about saccharine-sweet overexposure!
If we had to put a price tag on the free advertising the President has received from the networks for ObamaCare over the last several days alone, it would run into the tens of millions of dollars. It is clear that the sacred line between government and the so-called “mainstream” media has all but disappeared!
And it could soon get much worse…
Last week, the President said he would be “open” to proposals for a financial bailout of the newspaper industry.
Following massive government intrusion into the banks, the insurance companies, and General Motors, the radical left is now poised to take over the Fourth Estate!
That’s why I’m writing to you today.
The line between our government and the liberal media is difficult to see these days, making it imperative that we step up our efforts at the Media Research Center dramatically to expose and defeat what is a massive leftist assault against our liberty and our way of life.
I need your help urgently to accomplish this. Please stand with me right now to defeat this radical push to redefine our nation. Click here to help.
Several weeks ago, I told you about two dear friends of the MRC who so believe in our mission that they generously stepped forward and offered a financial challenge…
They will match your gift and every gift from MRC Action team members dollar for dollar – up to $100,000 – through September 30.
We only have three more days to raise as much money as possible, so we can take full advantage of this generous matching offer. I am counting on your help to raise the needed funds to expand our efforts and confront this liberal media machine that is threatening our freedom, our security and the very foundation of our country! Click here to help right now.
As part of this incredible challenge, your tax-deductible gift of $25 will be doubled to $50, a gift of $50 doubles to $100, $500 to $1,000 and so on until we reach our goal of $100,000.
If you’ve considered making a tax-deductible gift to help the MRC in the past, this is the time to take action and double your impact!
But I need you to take immediate action, as the deadline for the matching challenge is Wednesday, September 30.
We cannot allow Obama and his liberal cohorts to further erase the line between government and the media.
This is a battle that MUST be won, and I’m counting on those of you who share our love of liberty to stand with us right now as we fight back against liberal advances, using their own words to expose and neutralize them.
Thank you in advance for making your very best gift and doubling your impact in our efforts to reign in the radical news media!
