Boycott NY Times Advertisers

After reading Austin Bay's note on the NYT publishing more classified info, it's clear to me that their opposition to Bush has crossed the line into support for the Islamofascist terrorists.
And Bush is too wimpy to fight the NY Times, just as he's too wimpy to close the borders.

Isn't it time to learn from Leftist anti-capitalist tactics?
Boycott NYT advertisers.  Target the two or three largest advertisers:
"Don't buy from those who help terrorist murderers."
Campaign against advertising in the NYT.

Aren't there any angry mothers of American servicemen who can claim they believe the NYT was deliberately helping the terrorists to kill their child? and object to ?Macy's, ?Sak's, ?Ford, GM? I don't know who the 3 biggest advertisers are.

The NYT has a nice "buy ads" website. "They trust The Times for its integrity and sound judgment. And it is this influence that makes The Times the most effective vehicle an advertiser can find. When you advertise in The New York Times, you can expect unparalleled results."

The anti-ad campaign: " The Times has lost its integrity and sound judgement.  It is now using its influence to help the enemies of Pres. Bush, the enemies of freedom and democracy.  When you advertise in The Times, you support the enemies of America.  We demand that you stop supporting the goal of defeat."

Such a campaign could also push the politicians to act more responsibly -- enforce the laws.  Just as the unenforced border invites illegals, the unenforced secrecy border invites illegal disclosures.

Hugh Hewitt has a fine fisking of the NYT Bill Keller letter -- in my view, Keller should be fired (Larry Summers of Harvard was).  The NYT should follow Enron and Arthur Andersen into corporate oblivion.  Hugh's earlier post: "The Fourth Estate Has Become a Fifth Column"

Great letter to the NYT from Sgt. TF Boggs.

Patterico canceled his LA Times subscrition over this.  Cancelling subs is fine -- but boycotting advertisers will really hurt.

Michael Ledeen notes that the journos are actually more like politicians, w/o accountability.  Boycott their paper's advertisers is the way to get accountability. (Via Powerline)

I wonder if there is a "preponderance of evidence" that the NYT is supporting the terrorists, enough to convince a jury that the NYT is an accessory  to murder or wrongful death, along the lines of OJ where "beyond reasonable doubt" is too high a standard of proof. 

There are 4  quadrants of coverage: pro-America, anti-America, pro-terrorist, anti-terrorist.  It seems that most of the NYT front page stories are anti-American slanted -- much in the pro-terrorist side.

Ace of Spades says it's blackmail -- elect Dems or else all National Security secrets can be leaked.

Last, Best, Michelle Malkin has Fantastic posters about the NYT Blabbermouths.  I quite like the "Don't kill her Daddy" (at Darleen's Place) and The Times Spied, Soldiers Died (John Schrenko, no link).  My idea above is to claim that some Daddies have already been murdered by terrorists who do NOT wear uniforms (outside Geneva Convention) thanks to info given to them by the NYT.

I really believe that spying for terrorists has already helped them kill Americans, and even more Iraqis and other innocents.

The media is not neutral, it is an ally of the terrorists.
