New Live Show About the Draft to Air Before the Election
George W. Bush says there won�t be a draft; John Kerry says there won�t be a draft; Yet thousands of Americans don�t believe them. Why not?
On the eve of the presidential election, LinkTV launches FAQs, a new national call-in show, with a three-part series that explores the hot button issue that has surprised politicians from both parties - fears of a post-election Draft. The series gives Americans a forum to share their stories and have their questions answered.� We meet soldiers just back from Iraq; mothers who've had to buy their sons' bullet-proof vests;� Generals and Politicians with very different ideas on whether we should be worried. The premiere episodes of FAQs will air October 25 through 27 and continue regularly thereafter on other important topics of the election and beyond.��
Send Us Your Questions!
Be a part of this interactive new series: send us your questions about the military, political and personel aspects of the military manpower crisis and the Draft. Send your questions to [email protected]�and please include your daytime phone number, we may want to call you with followup questions.

Best Viewer Comments Of The Week
(Keep them coming. Next week it could be yours!)
"Hello, To say that I love your station and programs is an
understatement.� Link TV is one of the two stations I watch and in the last
month or so yours is the ONLY station I have been watching.� The
programming and clarity of topics is unparalleled - from news, to investigative
reports, to interviews, to movies, documentaries, rallies, music videos.....
just ALL IF IT....� Sometimes you take the words right out of my heart -
before it even reaches my mouth.� The only subject that I am still waiting
to see is the subject of the Armenian Genocide - and I am still waiting.� I
know that it will come after the Election craze is out of our TV screens.�
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.....programs.� I just became a supporter, I
actually called in on Friday night and contributed - sorry for waiting so
long.� I know I was way overdue and that IS THE LEAST WE ALL CAN DO.... I
am constantly talking about Link TV to everyone.� But you know?????? I find
that almost NONE of the people I speak with even know about Link TV, since I
don't know what stations it goes on in different areas, I always tell them to
log on to your website.� Keep up the Great work.� We all need you more
than many of us even realize..."� Sent: Monday, October 11
every time i think link tv has aired a program of unprecedented global
significance and import, you go a step further by airing programs such as
"hijacking catastrophe", proving as always, your fearless commitment to
spreading truth and unique perspective, a perspective which could literally
influence the future of world events. i am beyond touched and inspired. Count on
every possible financial contribution i can manage.��� Sent:
