Capitalism at its very finest.

C. Vivian Stringer  became one of the greatest civil

and women's right leaders of all time on April 10, 2007.

Ms. Stringer wowed the minorities. She spoke with an eloquence that the smoothest politicians could only dream of possessing.

Stringer went right to the source of how Imus and all the other rich white media boys and girls get away with spewing their hatred. The people who run this fading-beauty country of ours  see us as one color, GREEN.

GREEN for money. Their bottom line profits. Let the market work. Fine. And capitalism finally worked for the public.

We are the corporation's source of income. We buy their products and pay big media companies for advertising. We were so mad at Imus, the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back, that we spoke out, demanding that GM, Proctor and Gamble and other sponsors of Imus withdraw their advertising dollars from the media until Imus was FIRED !!!  How'd we do this? We told them we would BOYCOTT all of their products and services. They in turn, told big media that they -the corporations - would no longer purchase advertising .

Big media responded.

The people rose up out of their, our stupor. People across the world called and emailed the stations and corporations.

The media had to fire him. Not because of values (we are not falling for that line

Mr. CBS President Steve Capus) but because they lost income, because the

corporate rulers told them to fire Imus.

When the corporations are threatened with losing income, they act fast. They pretend it is a "values

thing."  But it is a "bottom line" thing. This IS capitalism working at its finest. Vivian got it right.

This was a peaceful and civil action at its very finest moment.
