I'm not sure that this boycott thing won't backfire on us, but anyway- maybe we should compile a list of those companies that advertise during B&BH, a list which should be posted. An address is going to be needed for each of these companies, because we need to write to these corporate-fascists, not MTV. MTV is just going to go where ever the bucks are. We write to the big companies and tell them that unless MTV restores B&BH to its uncensored condition by such-and-such date, we are going to stop buying their products. Tell them, not only that, but we're going to tell all our friends to stop buying their products, too, because to buy their products is to support censorship, etc, etc.

If these giant companies see their sales falling off, and they know *why* it is happening (because we tell them why), they will then kick MTV in the ass for us! Where the dollar goes, MTV will follow.

Well, won't they?!?

If they are in fact supporting censorship(heh, involving the same channel that often preached against censorship?!), can't we get even bigger groups involved with this, or at least informed of this?
