What can be done?

One suggestion: if you would all keep one sending a link to the
rebuttal I wrote to all those news services and be insistent about it,
maybe some of them will actually read it and maybe learn something.
Here is a link to it:

And please feel free to send it over and over again!
I have already done it more than once but if they all get it over and
over again maybe they will start paying attention.

Plain ignorant slander!

Reading articles like that really gets my blood boiling. What can be
done? This
trend is only getting worse and seems to be a problem growing worse
each
day...and Fall.

Sad.
