MSM Refuses to Take Genocide in Darfur Ad
Think Progress has the news that NBC, CBS, and ABC affiliates are refusing to run Be a Witness ads covering the genocide that is going on in Darfur. They haven’t covered any of the news during the year except for token sound-bites because apparently Natalee Holloway takes precedence.
Turns out that for every 100,000 dead in Sudan, the issue gets 1 minute of press. To add insult to injury they won’t let people even pay them to cover it.

Yet another example of the business of news. . . What is it they are advertising on TV for that new show, the quote is ” My dad says TV is a necessary tool to keep people from knowing, the truth ” . . .
