Email Pushback Project

I got an email last night from one of the guys behind the Email Pushback Project. It’s a grassroots effort to organize responses against misleading political chain mail. Check it out.

    Isn’t this essentially what snopes does?

  3. daveincolorado Says:

    what about pushback against candidate commercials that are based on proven lies? lIke most-if not all- the McCain ads?

  4. Mike Fisher Says:

    Thanks for the information and link. My wife received the “Interesting Info and Tax Comparisons for 2009″ email from her brother this morning so we just used the Email Pushback Project.

  5. Herb Says:

    I get these e-mails from my Uncle Jim. My strategy has been to “reply all” to his entire distro, usually with the link to the Snopes debunking the lies. I figure a few things would happen:

    A) People would ask him why he’s forwarding bogus info.
    B) He’d be embarrassed enough to stop forwarding bogus info.
    C) He figures out how to BCC.

    Shame is a powerful tool, my friends.
