Invite For Collaboration Part 2:

I noted it down, thanks chase.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 10:00 pm

PW, thank you so much. I know that this project is not closest to your heart, and that’s perfectly ok. That’s what Planet POV is about, we all can just be ourselves.
I’m very grateful if you can advice me once in a while, especially how to keep things short and on topic. I’m rather good at brainstorming, but then to eliminate most in order to bring my point across is where I need some advice. And I note down the offer you made, thank you very much for that.

One other thing I thought would be interesting is some background on AOL. Since you said you are very well acquainted with them you may be the perfect person for furnishing this part in a brief summary, if you feel like doing that.

Thank you both for the offers. I noted them down.

Wow, this is just so sickening. Thank you, Cher for providing us with so much information and material. I hope escribacat gives us a couple of those samples for the project!

Yes, true, thank you henlopen. Yet the general tone and policy of Huff are NOT progressive, in spite of some good progressive voices. One important goal of the project is to bring this point across.

Chase, you said so on dey’s Invite, Part 1.
And if you’re interested in research on the subject above, you are really very welcome to join.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 9:25 pm

Chase, good to see you! Now that I know that you got fanned by HUME you have no more excuses whatsoever not to join us here!!! Hume didn’t even give me as much as a passing glance! So, go ahead, create an email account for that purpose if you wish, and let me know which part you want to research and document…. 😉

jkkFL – I’m a novice too, but I felt we shouldn’t let Arianna get away just like this. And the
record has to be set straight, they are NOT a progressive outlet and should never be referred to as such. So if you feel like doing research on one subject or the other and summarize the results for us in a post, feel free to mail me so we can coordinate the work. You can set up an e- mail for that purpose just like I did. You’re very welcome to join!
And good to know that you want to hear about the cult thing. I’m sure to dig out more about this subject soon. Yet for the dramatic effect it won’t come in the beginning….

***Edit: here’s a link to that subject:http://gawker.com/#!5064930/ariannas-mandatory-cult-meetings

Indeed – Colbert’s art is awesome.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 8:30 pm

Cher, thanks for the info. And as I have stated above shouting from the rooftops the lack of progressive credentials is one of the main objectives of this series.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 8:22 pm

jd, excellent. Can you write it at some time soonish and send it to the email above? That’s an article that should come somewhere in the beginning. I start collecting posts now and put them then in an order that makes sense.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 8:18 pm

Good idea, chase! Glad that you’re here, I knew that you’d have some excellent ideas and contributions. I’ll ask Cher if she could do that.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 8:05 pm

Exactly, Killgore. Now this would make for an excellent paragraph in our planned collaborative article. Then I would add, that besides giving her revenue, this kept us busy fighting each other and not the corporations. The posters are really led to believe they are on a mission and don’t realize that we both, left and right are played by the big money folks who don’t have a conscience. Some of them even dare to sell us books on 3rd world America! :bad:
I for one fell into that trap more often than I would like to admit. Reading the outrageous headlines Cher posted, I understand that I got upset – if a “progressive outlet” with so many excellent commenters writes that I do have to defend my President , don’t I?
Only now did I understand that I don’t have to defend anything on HP. HP , like Fox, ABC, yahoo etc is NOT a progressive outlet, it is a neocon enterprise.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 8:00 pm

Cher, yes, I thought of that too. In fact, it can start right now – maybe media matters could also launch something a bit bigger, together with huffpuff.

In any case, I hope to get some well researched articles together, which will take a while. Those i would try to spread as far as possible. Yet there is a lot of material out there already so we have to find out how we get it to stick.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 2:25 pm

Cher, these are more than enough for now. However it’s good to know that you have worked on the subject before, and of course you’re welcome to join if you like.
My, I haven’t even checked out the archives, it all went a bit fast.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 2:18 pm

Thank you Parsifals, the same to you.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 2:14 pm

Yes, I agree with that. I understand now what you meant, Pundit.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 2:09 pm

Thank you so much, Cher. What an excellent collection of links. And some progressives finally spoke out, that’s extremely good to know! I thought it’s never going to happen!

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 2:08 pm

😆 Funny, thanks for the laugh!

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 1:51 pm

Parsifals, it’ s in the article above. But here is a copy: 2emeraldcurtain@gmail.com

PS: Great if you participate 🙂

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 1:44 pm

Ok, if you change the media laws and we can get them I do….. OK??? 😛

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 1:42 pm

ghsts, a concerted effort, not some random events. I observed very closely how the perception about the President changed. They media really hammer their message in through relentlessly repeating the same crap. Compare the picture that they give (and liberals think he should be) to what he really has achieved. That is a lot more than any President in a long time. I want more too, but there are Senate and Congress blocking the way.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 1:41 pm

That’s probably what I was trying to say, PW. However I should have heeded your advice to keep it short. Lesson learnt!

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 1:19 pm

ghsts: Splitting up the left, selling out on them and relentlessly bashing and trying to weaken the President while pretending to be a friend is quite a bit evil. Too evil for me to let it pass by.

***UPDATE: I mentioned Palin to highlight how Huffington used her to deflect from her own mistakes. I didn’t mean to let her continue with that game! And yes, both are ruthless, I’m aware of that.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 1:14 pm

KT, what? 😆 —– maybe she’s trying to expand her base now…. too late though

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 1:10 pm

Pundit, Palin changes the rules of the game too. The only difference is that she and her end-time church believe that she’s the chosen one. But then, what do I know what Huffington was told by her cult leader? They are birds of a feather.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 1:08 pm

Thank you boomer. Every nut is making a book, so yes, why shouldn’t we? Would be cool to unite with the blogger slaves to make quite a bit of noise.

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 1:03 pm

Parsifals, I just made an ardent prayer on God’s blog to do sth about that…. so far you have to go back in each thread to see if an answer is there. But in this case email is good, if you like

» Posted By Truth On February 20, 2011 @ 1:01 pm

Parsifals, good that you tell me this. Those whackos tell just about every lie they can, and as soon as it comes to them they want to sue! Where is MY “free speech”, darn?

In any case, you can write me an email, see above (2Emerald…) As soon as I know who participates and what everyone wants and can do we’ll make an organization chart. It’s good to have you as an advisor around, as soon as your free. Or whatever inspiration you have.
