A request, for an email mission. Geraldo Rivera slanders gun owner

I have sent an email to FOX and got a response which I replied to and the response I got was not a canned response. Keeping up the pressure might do some good.
 
They don't care about viewers' opinions. haven't you guys learned anything from Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson? You have to write to Geraldo's sponsors. It's the money that matters.
 
Newly posted on Wayne's Page, seems Facebook is now enforcing a no- weapon policy of sorts:

Hi Wayne,

Facebook has decided that any pictures of people posing with guns or arsenals in a non-sporting context are inherently threatening to other users and thus a violation of our Terms of Use. As a result, these photos have been removed and will not be restored. Thanks for your understanding in this matter.

Email sent to Fox. As a parent of two Asian children and a sportsman, I told them their network was off my viewing list until Geraldo is fired for being a bigot.

I posted this in another forum but had to add it to this as soon as I found it.

I'm at lunch, walking down the street when Mr. cheesy moustache happens to be walking towards me. I said "Hey Geraldo! Outing that kid last week was low, even for you." He of course ignored me. Made my day :)
 
so, i'm guessing basically we have been collectively ignored at this point? nobody seems to have gotten any sort of interested or concerned response from anybody. i wouldn't have started watching fox news again even if he had apologized.....no dice unless he was fired. their blatant disregard for the viewer's opinion settles the case for me, though. if only gerry did a blog that you could comment on. maybe certain types are thinking twice about that sort of thing after the whole zumbo incident.
 
This silence is really disheartening right now, but we have not forgotten.

Remember, this is for all of us. One day, it could easily be one of us shown on TV and tried and convicted before a television audience for nothing more than being a gun owner.
 
Ya'll, thanks for the tremendous support! I figured I would give an update on my current situation. Currently, I am seeking legal counsel on possible recourse. We have a pretty strong case against CTV and am in the process of determining jurisdiction. We are also considering a case against Fox news, but the journey ahead will be very difficult. I will update whenever significant events develop. Once again, thanks for all the help and support through this entire mess!
 
Dude, I'm seeing paid-off student loans, a sports car, and some class III stuff in your future - and an apology - what they did to you was NOT excusable - and was frankly downright racist. Let's look at the first guy who obviously ain't from around here...

Remember that as you job hunt, etc., your possible employers may think "Hey, could this Wayne guy maybe have been connected?" and hire someone else - over your lifetime, the damage could amount to millions.
 
New guy here, spent the lasy half hour or so on this thread and reading Waynes site, just sent off my comments to fox.
 
I just came across this and spent 30 minutes reading through it. I remember seeing the Geraldo piece, or part of it because I usally exercise my right to change channels when he comes on. There are no depths Geraldo won't plunge to grab a bit of ratings. He is absolutely disgusting.

As far as Wayne's "arsenal" I have only two comments. The first is I wouldn't spend that much on those types of firearms. The second is nice collection and it would be fun to shoot a few of those. Very nice.

From the blog and the news interviews, Wayne sounds like an impressive young man.

email to fox after this post.
 
The thing that gets me is that there has been no attempt at an apology? Maybe because that would be admitting guilt? I too switch the channel when I see geraldo.
 
Wayne, I too got the canned response from Fox when I wrote them. Personally, I hope that you DO sue both CTV and Fox, and if they offer to settle, or lose the suit, please, don't let them get away with the "no admission of guilt" thing. They need to fess up, and they need to apologize to you, publicly, and on the air.

wayne, that's what i hope for you as well. i'm not big on lawsuits, but this is one case i would like to see some positive outcome from. i hope you make loads of money, but i hope at the top of the list of what you will be paid is a public apology....you are owed that much, at the VERY least.
