I received this today:

Dear MoveOn Member,

Over the last four days, something incredible has happened. CBS has received over 340,000 emails and phone calls asking it to stop its censorship. Clearly a huge number of us believe that CBS's refusal to run our Voter Fund ad, while allowing the Bush White House to run an advocacy ad of its own, is just plain wrong.

Columnists and editorial pages are writing about it. And on Monday, FCC commissioner Michael Copps issued a statement on it. These folks understand that this issue isn't just about our Voter Fund's ad -- an ad by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals was censored as well. At heart, it's about free speech. Huge companies like CBS that control access to the publicly owned airwaves have to air opposing points of view.

CBS still refuses to run "Child's Pay." But together, we can increase the pressure on CBS. And through the power of the Internet, we can make sure that millions of people see the ad and learn about the controversy. As a first step, forward this email or the original message attached below to your friends. Ask them to check out the ad at:

and it goes on...too lengthy to post here...but i wanted to point out that the letter:

lists a number which it claims is CBS' Comment line, which in actuality is CBS News' National Desk number...meaning, that all calls are going to the wrong place...

Footnote...the desk received so many calls today it killed the line for the time being and put up new lines..also this would explain why the CBS Directory number was tied up all day...it's all quite funny

the letter also points out that CBS Affiliates will air the add and that this is hypocrisy...well, in actuality, affiliates can do what they like because they are not owned by CBS, hence the name "affiliates," not really hypocrisy...

I would say that MoveOn is defintely succeeding is stirring up things a little, and I believe that's all they hoped for from the get go...

by the way...there is a ton of beautiful snow here
