----- Original Message ----- From: "Chuck0" <chuck at mutualaid.org> -Obviously Cooper and Corn didn't get the memo about the right wing media -dominating the public sphere. Even worse, they've chosen to climb into -bed with slimeballs like Tammy Bruce and Charles Johnson.

I got the same offer Cooper, Max and many others got to join the network, which is little more than agreeing to run an ad in exchange for a fee. I've been debating the issue with myself, but this kind of over-the-top bashing of Cooper may be knocking me over to acceptance.

While I have some scruples about what advertising I take, if rightwingers want to pay me, why should I automatically run away? It really comes down to a bet, doesn't it. They think they will get more publicity for their ideas from an ad on my site than promoting and funding me will give publicity to my ideas.

Are folks so sure of the effectiveness of rightwing ideas that they think Marc or Max or myself will automatically lose the bet on which will get more out of the deal?
