Default "dead beat" parent round-up

In article , AZ Astrea says...

Just heard on the news they pulled another "round-up of dead beat parents"
here in Tucson. They named it "Operation Child-support". Channel 4 news
reported all the standard "politically correct" bull**** and used the term
"dead beat parents". I guess that's more 'correct' than dead beat dads but
no matter what, the reality is that out of the 21 people still sitting in
jail as of this evening, (the "round-up" was at 5am), there is *one* woman.
The token woman.

I'm writing an e-mail to Channel 4 (www.kvoa.com) , hoping to enlighten them
a little as to the reality of dead-broke dads. I can't find the story on
their website yet. They just aired it so maybe it's not on it yet.

With all the talented writers and ranters we have here I'm hoping we can all
send them a bit of enlightening e-mail. Who knows? Maybe somebody will be
listening?

Ya know, I've been wanting to do this for years and never seem to find the
time/motivation (I confess). You are right--We do need a bevy of well-written
editable(?)letters posted here that could be sent to various media /government
outlets. Umm...Kenneth? :-)
