The New Media, which is a fusion of Talk Radio and Internet Websites, is leading the charge against the Senate Scamnesty Bill S. 1348 as millions of Americans abandon print media and biased TV news that has abandoned their readers and viewers!
This week, Senator Trent Lott tried to explain away the tens of thousands of calls Senate offices are receiving, which are over 20 to 1 against Scamnesty Bill S. 1348. He told the Christian Science Monitor that "A lot of the talk is misinformation (from) Talk radio and the blogs"
The pro Amnesty Senators fail to acknowledge that their support for S. 1348 is in defiance of the will of the vast majority of their constituents who support Enforcement of our existing immigration laws, as opposed to their appeasement of Big Business and illegal aliens. These facts are represented in numerous online and scientific polls and in the call ratios against S. 1348.
The old media is squandering what little credibility they still have by excluding pro enforcement voices and siding with pro Amnesty voices in this debate. Most TV news shows and newspapers engaging in this unethical behavior are at odds with the views of over 3 out of 4 Americans that oppose Amnesty and favor enforcement of our existing laws.
"There is almost a complete blackout in the liberal corporate print media for those of us representing the majority view in this debate," says William Gheen of Americans for Legal Immigration PAC. "Most of the major leaders in our movement are NOT being quoted by the Associated Press and newspapers, meanwhile, those that support Amnesty and S. 1348 are in print everyday across the nation. It is no wonder that newspapers in America only enjoy support levels in the single digits and that newspaper circulations are diving to historic lows! I've been interviewed by over 30 talk radio show hosts and bloggers in the last two weeks and only one newspaper. Our opposition is making statements in the papers each day. Other leaders on our side are experiencing the same blackout."
CBS, ABC, and NBC nightly news casts are almost completely devoid of any balanced and accurate information about America's illegal immigration crisis. When stories do run, they are usually so biased that most viewers realize they are watching propaganda instead of news.
While TV viewers can get some accurate information from Lou Dobbs and occasionally Glen Beck and Sean Hannity, on immigration issues but most Americans are turning to talk radio and the Internet for the truth, while major news services and newspapers play their fiddles.
"Americans have to turn to the Internet and Talk Radio to have any idea of what is really happening in the country today," says Gheen. "They have to go out and hunt for their news, instead of relying on traditional channels to serve it up because the amount of censorship and bias in the corporate media would make the Soviets blush!"
Internet based organizations such as ALIPAC, NumbersUSA, FAIR, MCDC, American Patrol, and many other organizations and Bloggers collect and distribute articles, videos, and podcasts, often blocked by the Associated press from wide distribution. Many of these organizations have e-mail support lists that reach allied media and citizen activists.
"The old media censorship, bias, and blackouts on illegal immigration issues have created an information black market for us," says William Gheen. "Their failure to provide the public with accurate and balanced information about this crisis has created a lot of growth for what we do."
William Gheen is available for Talk Radio, Blogger, and Podcast Interviews on this subject. Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) is the largest archive of information about America's illegal immigration crisis in existence. ALIPAC supporters comprise those of every race and political party. New web traffic records have been set for the last three months with over 140,000 pages of www.alipac.us being viewed each day as lawmakers, citizen activists, journalists, and talk show hosts seek information that they are not getting through traditional channels.

daniel.barlow@rutlandherald.com "Scamnesty?" Please. Stop sending me this stuff.
Yes Daniel, SCAMNESTY! I'm not surprised you are not familiar with the term even though the term is being used all across America today to describe Amnesty bill S. 1348. You really should try to understand what is going on in the minds of the American public right now. Here is some information for you about SCAMNESTY. It Googles at 27,000 matches!
See for yourself at ...

I guess you are one of the last to know reading the Old School news.
We really need people like yourself in the traditional media to get right with the public on this soon.

CGuerra@express-news.net Carlos Guerra : you guys are really out of touch with reality. check out the latest NYT poll.
Carlos,
Thank you for your reply. First, please do not believe anything you read in the New York Times. Second, that same poll says that 69% of Americans want the illegals prosecuted and deported! You should look closer at the results.
"A New York Times/CBS News poll released [on May 24] found that 69% of American adults believe illegal immigrants should “be prosecuted and deported for being in the U.S. illegally.â€
Keeping Americans from voicing their opinions
They can keep our phone calls, polls, and faxes under wraps. Why haven't Americans organized a march like the illegals did? You can't hide thousands of Americans marching in downtown areas. We could organize it on a weekend so we could be respectful to our employers, which is more than the illegals did. Just a thought. I want to be heard. You would, too, if your senators were McCain and Kyl. What a disgrace!
When the government stops listening to its people
Love to see a large march to the capital; millions of American citizens expressing their dislike of this bill. It would be a sight to behold. I also realize something else; many people don't see it; or don't know whats going on or are misinformed by the major media. Its true that today you have to search for the truth; via the Internet or radio; some news channels are worthy. Some of us do read the paper just to see the blatant distortions but there are a few who get it right; also magazines but it has to be done. I tend to try to see all views on issues; as many do. Others are just to busy with their lives to consider the fact that something is seriously wrong; in our government.
I called Senator Lotts office and spoke to a staff member of his to express some concerns I had with the illegal immigration bill S. 1348 that I read. I was polite; but she quickly said I will relay him your message cutting me off before I was even done. She then hung up on me. Well that was rude; I thought. So I called back and left him a recorded message of what I wanted to say. It was followed up by an e-mail. Now to tell you the truth; when she brushed me off like that it spoke volumes. He has already decided. He does not care. I e-mailed him before and Senator McConnell. I have received e-mail responses from many senators; mostly form statements of received e-mail a few personal. Just about every Senator but those two. I hate to say it but they don't want to hear from U.S citizens. This Bill though they know that the country by enlarge hates it and doesn't want it; is being shoved through.
My question is why. Something is very wrong here; when the government stops listening to its people.
Now I sat down with somebody today who told me some things; asked me if I watched the history channel etc. Well yes I answered. Then that person said history repeats itself; I then realized what they meant.
History does repeat itself; but not always in the same place; sometimes its right in front of you but you cannot believe it.
