Send a message to Jay Leno: "If Ann Coulter is on, I'm not watching!"

I was watching the Tonight Show a little while ago, when Jay Leno announced his guests for the Wednesday night.  When he said the name "Ann Coulter," my stomach tightened -- and a very audible, collective BOO rose from the audience!

Leno defended his choice -- saying that he wanted to hear what she had to say.  I say, we know what she has to say, and it's all vile and it's all hateful.  

I'd like him to understand the consequences of his choice.  I do not believe that hate speech (the only kind of speech that seem to spew from her mouth) should be given such a far reaching, public forum.  Right after I finish typing this, I'm going to send an email to the Tonight Show ([e-mail])that says I'm going to go to bed early Wednesday night and boycotting Wednesday's show because of the presence of Ann Coulter.  I hope you will do the same.  

Both are pimping themselves: she is pushing a book; he's looking for the ratings bump that comes from having a controversial guest.  She might be beyond redemption, but I hope he is not.  Let's show him what happens when he invites the hateful, self-absorbed people to speak on his show: people turn away -- in droves!  

Wouldn't it be great if we flexed our collective muscle, and the ratings for that show were significantly low?  Come on -- we can do it!!  You've got all day Tuesday and Wednesday to find a good book to read during that time slot!!  Start searching the library database!  :)

Stay strong!
