We read:
"The "friendly Fracosaurus" featured in a 24-page coloring book by Talisman Energy that explained the controversial process of extracting gas from rock formations will no longer be distributed by the company, a spokeswoman told FoxNews.com.
Natalie Cox, a spokeswoman for Talisman Energy USA Inc., said the coloring book, "Talisman Terry's Energy Adventure," was created in 2009 by staff at Talisman's headquarters in Calgary, Canada, as a giveaway for county fairs and other community events along the Pennsylvania-New York border. It's unclear exactly how many were produced and distributed, she said.
Despite no complaints from the public -- only from "the media," Cox said -- the company decided to stop using the publication within the past month.
Of fracking, the highly controversial processes that blasts chemicals, water and sand into rock to extract natural gas, Colbert said: "It's like giving the Earth an Alka-Seltzer if the Alka-Seltzer shattered your internal organs so oil companies could harvest your juices." [It's controversial only because the Green/Left distort and demonize it, as you see in Colbert's comments]

And theyll soon replace it with the CAPTIAN PLANET LITTLE ECO-FREAKS COLORING BOOK
Because the media complained? Is this yet another attempt by the media to become an active and unelected part of this govt? Apparently, "actively and openly" interfering with the electorial process is not enough for them.
Someday, (if) the American people ever grow up, and wake up, they're going to demand that a "very close" look be given to the media's First Amendment protections. Exactly what does "freedom of the press" actually mean? Does it mean they're free to lie, distort, manipulate, fabricate, and interfere with every phase of daily life, including our elections? Is that what the Founding Fathers had in mind?
And, if that day ever comes when the people wake-up from their stupor, will they then realize that the MSM is one of THE most destructive anti-American entities facing them? No, i don't think so either.
Just another instance of the liberal left making sure than no voice but theirs is heard.
I'd be willing to bet that if Talisman Energy had shown a little backbone, the media complainer would have backed down. But, they are a Canadian company, so the backbone part is out.
Liberal just another word for socialists
