To Jon and Colbert: From Activist Reporter Looking for a District to Serve

Let's fix this country...

(CLERMONT, Fla.) - Generations of children grew up watching Edward R. Murrow and Walter Cronkite and many dreamed of growing up and being them. My dream was to grow up and be Brenda Starr, the redheaded ace investigative journalist of the Sunday Comics.

Edward R. Murrow turned public opinion against the extremism and fear mongering of Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

Murrow had an even more direct effect when he reported on the case of Milo Radulovich, an Air Force lieutenant who was stripped of his commission after being charged with associating with communists. Murrow’s broadcast resulted in Radulovich’s reinstatement.

Walter Cronkite’s editorial about the war in Vietnam after the Tet Offensive in 1968 convinced President Lyndon B. Johnson that he had lost public support and a month later, LBJ declined to run for re-election.

Jon Stewart’s December 16th show with representatives of the 9/11 First Responders focused on two targets. Republicans who were blocking the bill and the Media who were all missing in action over the nine-year struggle America’s hardest working heroes have endured seeking help with their catastrophic medical bills, because they all are dying from the toxins that enveloped Ground Zero.

The White House press secretary, Robert Gibbs, even credited Mr. Stewart with raising awareness of the Republican blockade.

I have been sending FAXES, emails and phoning The White House since 2005 petitioning them for Mordechai Vanunu’s freedom, but they never reply, so this You Tube is To Jon and Colbert: From Activist Reporter Looking for a District to Serve.

With hope that Jon will get my message so that he can get Vanunu’s message through and it also is to Stephen Colbert regarding my need for The Colbert Bump, to get these messages through from Citizens of Conscience:
