[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 998137, member: 12508"] I have written [I]60 Minutes [/I]several times requesting that they do a story on FedEx. No response at all, and I think I know why. FedEx is a major advertiser, and if CBS or any other network ran a hit piece on the company, FedEx would simply withdraw their advertising dollars. They don't want to alienate a major customer, even if that company runs a dirty operation. One would think that the media [I]would[/I] find a backstory on the real FedEx very interesting, and perhaps writing to newspapers and magazines might create enough interest that the FedEx dirt would finally get exposed. If your station is particularly bad, the local liberal weeklies often do exposes' of shoddy and shady companies. One would think that Ground would also be a good place to go given the way those folks are treated. The Ground safety record and the eligibility of many Ground employees for public assistance might also draw attention to FedEx practices. [/QUOTE]
