ynot,

You are exactly right about any emails or letters sent to anyone (other than the F.B.I. or Secret Service) that contain any sort of BUSINESSLIKE comments, as being discarded immediately!

If you can't express yourself in a civil manner, you will be put in the "round file" and dismissed as a disgruntled lowlife idiot...

My guess is they've received PLENTY of businesslike correspondence on this issue. They just don't want to address it is all. Instead they've chosen the low road by seeking to tar us all with the same brush.

Well it won't stick. You're dealing with professionals here Marty. If you won't cover the story, someone else will. Even CNN is covering the credit crisis now, and how long were they dismissing and downplaying that? Not any more. If a story is big enough, it gets airplay. It's a question of credibility vs. sponsors. At some point the balance tips and we become journalists again, if only for a moment.

That moment is approaching.
