Before we become emotional, let us remember that few broacasters double
checked their sources or the video tape (Roland Martin's response to FOX in
particular). The FCC should quickly investigate the "malicious truth"
presented by Fox. And the POTUS paid too much attention to one news source.

Colleagues:

I, too, have signed the Color of Change petition and encourage others to do
so.

I am signing this today!  I just watched several mainstream news
channels back track and offer their support to Ms. Sherrod.
Colorofchange does an excellent job of mobilizing people and actually
impacting society and bringing about action.

I am all for moving forward with a resolution regarding Fox that calls
them out for their racist, sexist skewed points of view that lead our
society to intolerance and hatred.  They are more often wrong than
right and should be called out for masquerading as a credible news
source.  This seems much more important than our AEJMC president
calling out the President for not being accessible to the press.  AEJMC
as a whole should be outraged at Fox's antics!!!!!!  Truly this is what
Carol should be addressing.

Who would like to be in charge of drafting a resolution that we can
vote on at our business meeting?
