Frank,

Yesterday, Newsday published a despicable column that directly
linked Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly and other
conservative media to the hideous church shooting that took
place last month in Tennessee.

The article -- entitled "Does Shock Jock Hate Speech Lead To
Violence?" -- is so outrageous that MRC's President Brent Bozell
just drafted a letter to Newsday demanding a retraction.

Go here to access the Newsday article as well as Brent's letter to
Newsday:

The Newsday column draws a direct connection between conservative
talk radio hosts like Rush and Sean and the brutal murderer --
making them look complicit in those vile acts.

This is so reprehensible, we had to contact our fearless MRC
Action Team right away, and give them an opportunity to take
immediate action against Newsday.

+ + Action Item: Demand a Retraction From Newsday

We want to follow Brent's letter with thousands of emails from
MRC Action Team Members demanding an apology and retraction.

Please go here right now to send your emails to Publisher
Tim Knight and others at Newsday demanding a full
apology and retraction for this outrageous story.

+ + The Left's campaign to discredit conservative media leaders

The fact is, the Left is in the midst of a hideous character
assassination campaign against conservative media -- specifically
leaders like Rush and Sean -- and they will stop at nothing.

Newsday is not alone. Liberal Jim Wallis' blog included an
article on the Tennessee shootings that stated, "we can also
connect these deaths to too much toxic talk radio."

That is why Nancy Pelosi and others in Congress want to impose
the so-called Fairness Doctrine which would silence conservatives
on the radio. That is why Newsday published this article.

If we do not stop Newsday right now, these unwarranted attacks
against conservative free speech will only increase.

Newsday should be ashamed! But unless they get overwhelmed with
comments from outraged citizens like you, they will continue
to print articles like this.

Please send your emails to Newsday right now...

..and thank you for taking a stand to stop attacks against
conservative leaders like Rush.
