Fighting Back Against Boeing

There's a new salvo in the fight to get the Air Force tanker contract for Mobile.
This time it comes from a grass roots group here in the city.
Four people who live in Mobile have formed a non-profit group called "Alabamians to Build American Tankers."
The group has bought advertisements to run on radio stations in Washington D.C., right where members of Congress can hear them.
Here are some excerpts from the advertisements:
----"It appears that Boeing's cooperate policy is if Boeing can't win, no one can. And that means our troops lose."
----"Boeing claims military technology will wind up overseas. Boeing is one to talk. Last February, their engineer was arrested for sending trade secrets to communist China."
----"The reason we're still trying to replace our aging re-fueling tankers is because Boeing executives were involved in a scandal of bribery and cheating in the last bid."
Bryan Lee, one of the members of the group, said, "It was just time to answer some of the questions that Boeing has raised and the untruthfulness that they're putting out there. It was time to tell the truth from Mobile's side."
The advertisements are scheduled to start airing in Washington later this week.
News Five has tried to contact Boeing officials for reaction, but haven't heard from them as of yet.
