Andy Martin: Electorate Has Tuned Out Traditional Media

I just received this e-mailed press release from Andy Martin.

ATTENTION DAYBOOK/ASSIGNMENT EDITORS

ANNOUNCEMENT OF NEW YORK NEWS CONFERENCE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

INTERNET POWERHOUSE ANDY MARTIN LANDS IN NEW YORK TO PLAN NEW STRATEGY FOR DEALING WITH BARACK OBAMA, COLIN POWELL AND MAINSTREAM MEDIA

INTERNET POWER BEGINS TO DRIVE THE "TWO ELECTIONS OF 2008"

ANDY SAYS NBC NEWS' TREATMENT OF COLIN POWELL IS EVIDENCE OF "TWO PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGNS" IN 2008

(NEW YORK)(October 24, 2008) Internet powerhouse Andy Martin has landed in New York and will hold a news conference Friday afternoon, October 24th (today) to disclose plans for the final week of his efforts to "tell the truth about Barack Obama." Martin is the author of "Obama: The Man behind The Mask."

"When we conceived our investigative trip to Hawai'i last month, no media or writers had been to Hawai'i to dig into the truth about 'the hidden Obama' or his secret 'birth certificate' that no one has ever seen. Now everyone is buying tickets to Honolulu, even my competing authors, see http://wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=78954. We have given Hawai'i tourism a boost. We have started a 'rush to land' in Hawai'i.

"Every Barack Obama showed up in Honolulu, looking for his 'true' birth certificate. Will wonders never cease?

"The very fact that we promoted a pioneering investigation of Obama's past in Hawai'i, and that others are now following our lead, confirms that we have created the Internet powerhouse of 2008.

"But the hour is late; today we announce our general plans for the final days of the campaign to tell the truth about Senator Obama.

"I would be remiss if I also did not express my extreme dismay at the mainstream media's latest act of malpractice, 'Republican' Quisling Colin Powell's appearance on NBC.

"The Powell affair explains a great deal about media reality in 2008. We have two presidential election campaigns being conducted simultaneously: one by the mainstream media to force feed us Barack Obama, and one on the internet where truth generally prevails, with notable exceptions, and where Obama is not our uncrowned king.

"What has become increasingly apparent to me is that a vast segment of the electorate has completely tuned out traditional media and has come to rely exclusively on Internet powerhouses such as ContrarianCommentary.com. Advertisers be warned...

"The Republican Party made Colin Powell and promoted him to the highest offices in the land. How did he repay Republicans? By stabbing the party in the back. Fortunately for me, I was never a member of the 'cult' of Colin Powell. I always saw through him as the ass kisser and mediocre military man he was.

"Had Powell previously made any of his criticisms known in speeches to party leaders, or at party functions? Not a word. He just waited until the last minute, when Obama appears to be leading, to start ass kissing and start looking for a new job to burnish his tarnished reputation.

"Did Brokaw press Powell with probing questions? Not on your life. They were two lovers on Meet The Press. Powell went on national television and smeared the party with an unfiltered attack on John McCain.

"Ironically, I tend to agree with some of Powell's observations. But both parties are being run by their extremist wings: right-wing Republicans and left-wing Democrats.

"It is the manner of Powell's betrayal, and NBC News' function as a megaphone for Obama propaganda, that I find despicable. The presentation of Powell's message uncritically and without probing demolishes NBC's credibility. Going on TV to trash the party that made him is a true indicator of what a sycophant and brownnoser Powell always was. That Tom Brokaw would allow this 'news' charade to be presented under his name shows why people no longer trust and no longer believe and no longer are turning to the mainstream media for election information.

"Where was Powell's backbone when he could have helped stop the Iraq war by forcefully speaking out? I am a Republican and I marched in the streets of Washington and New York to protest the imminent attacks. But Powell was more concerned with 'polishing' his legacy than with being a true leader in 2003. Now he is groveling to Barack Obama at the eleventh hour, hoping to snare a few crumbs from the Democrats. I would like to see Obama lose just to keep Powell out of office. Powell is despicable.

"Instead of challenging Powell's perfidiousness, the mainstream media have been parroting and promoting him. No wonder people tune out this propaganda. Powell is the mainstream media's designated Republican backstabber. He had jelly in his spine in Viet-Nam; he had jelly in his spine in 1991. He lied to the American people in 2003, and now he is groveling to Barack Obama and looking for a new handout at the highest levels of government.

"I give Powell a 'Bronx cheer' in honor of his birthplace. Powell and his megaphones in the mainstream media are the reason there are two election campaigns being conducted, one on the Internet where truth is the goal, and one in the mainstream media where liberal lies are the currency," Martin will state.

FULL DISCLOSURE: I recently decided to oppose Barack Obama's election and became Executive Director of The Stop Obama Coalition, http://StopObamaCoalition.com. By default, I became the national leader of the anti-Obama movement. I am not acting as either a Democrat or Republican. I have had no contact whatsoever with the McCain Campaign. I am not a member of any political organization. The views expressed are entirely independent. I am acting as an American citizen who sincerely believes Obama is not the man we need in the Oval Office. We are going to run a very dynamic and aggressive campaign against Obama. I will continue to write my news and opinion columns for ContrarianCommentary.com. /s/ Andy Martin

URGENT APPEAL: The Committee of One Million to Defeat Barack Obama is raising money to fight Barack Obama. http://CommitteeofOneMilliontoDefeatBarackObama.com. Please give generously up to the maximum of $100. Our ability to fight and defeat Barack Obama is directly dependent on the generosity of every American."
The Committee of One Million to Defeat Barack Obama limits itself to $100 maximum contributions; there are no bundlers, fat cats or illegal contributions. Obama is opposed to everything America stands for," says Executive Director Andy Martin. "But while Obama has raised more than a third of a BILLION dollars, his opponents have raised virtually nothing. We can't just sit back and expect John McCain to do the job all alone. Americans can either contribute now, or pay later. If we do not succeed, Obama will."
