[Lnc-business] help review Gary Johnson daily press lists - Fwd: Press Clips (8/25)

A Johnson campaign team member sends around two lists every day of 
Johnson-Weld coverage. The campaign is getting very impressive amounts 
of daily media coverage daily.

On the other hand, I receive a fairly steady stream of comments from 
people saying things along the lines of "Where is Gary Johnson and the 
Libertarian Party? Whey aren't you guys doing anything? Why isn't he in 
the news?"

I've conveniently been able to forward lists like the ones below to 
individual critics to show how much is being done.

I'd like to post some lists like this on our blog, and occasionally send 
emails linking to the lists on the blogs. I think such emails would 
motivate our activists substantially. The daily lists motivate me, even 
though I don't agree with every phrase in every story.

Because usually some of the stories have statements that don't strictly 
comply with our platform, the Advertising, Publications and Review 
Committee will prohibit me from publishing such lists.

If there is a volunteer wiling to go through some of these lists from 
time to time and return a list with any potential violations flagged, I 
could then send the modified list to the APRC to see if they would 
accept the remaining stories on the lists. I simply do not personally 
have the time to read all of these stories carefully and definitely do 
not have time to discuss or debate whether certain details comply with 
the platform.

If you are willing to help with this, please let me know.

Then start by reviewing the list below and telling me which ones should 
be prohibited from being in a list on our blog. If possible, please give 
me an estimate of how long that takes you as well.

Thanks,
