During the middle of March, 2003, tbrnews received an email from a man who claimed to be a mid-level executive with a major American television network. He stated in this, and subsequent, emails that he was in possession of “thousands” of pages of in-house memos sent from his corporate headquarters in New York City to the head of the network’s television news department. He went on to say that these memos set forth directives about what material was, and was not, to be aired on the various outlets of the network.
(March 12, 2004) We are being officially urged to portray the terrorist bombings in Madrid as the product of Basque separatists. The Spanish government has beseeched the DoS and the White House not to portray the perps as Arabs because of the upcoming elections. The White House does not want to lose Spanish support, not because of the meager 1,500 troops Spain has shipped to Iraq but because if the present regime in Spain falls, a withdrawal by a new government is almost certain and Bush would get a terrible black eye…not that he hasn’t been getting plenty lately. Carey is wreaking havoc on the stomachs of RNC and White House staffers. First, these folks believed they had so much money they could dictate the course of the television ad campaigns. They had hundreds of millions raised from friends of the administration and felt too secure in their power…. We sell ads to whomever pays the freight, don’t forget that. We have been pressured to deny ads to the Democrats but that would be economic suicide. If Bush loses and we cast our lot with his people, the other side would have their revenge on all of us. The middle of the fence is always the safest…unless a Bush victory was a certainty…which it is certainly not.
