> Last week I forwarded you an important email regarding FOX's use of language
against Senator Obama and his wife, Michelle. Many thousands of you joined the
petition, and for that I thank you. Below is an update on that campaign that
was sent earlier this week.

> Over 428,000 people have signed a petition telling FOX to stop their racist
and hate-filled smears against Barack Obama. If we hit half-a-million
signatures, we can draw media attention and put pressure on FOX's advertisers.
>
> Plus, Robert Greenwald's Brave New Films released a video this morning
documenting FOX's ongoing smears against Michelle Obama. Please check out the
video, and then sign the petition calling on FOX to stop peddling racismand
then tell your friends. Just click here:

> FOX is shameless: in the last several weeks alone, they've "confused" Obama's
name with Osama's, referred to Michelle as "Obama's Baby Mama," and called an
affectionate fist bump by Barack and Michelle a "terrorist fist jab."
>
> Our partners at ColorOfChange.org will hold a major event next week to deliver
boxes and boxes of petition signatures to FOX's headquarters. If we can deliver
half-a-million signatures, other media outlets will have a powerful story to
reportand FOX's advertisers will get the hint that it's not a good idea to
associate their products with FOX's hate-speech.
