Rapid Response Network (RR) is a nationwide volunteer organization that acts as "first responders" to biased, imbalanced or factually inaccurate media coverage. At its heart, RR is a vehicle for engaging "We the People" in our democracy. As the influence of television news and media conglomerates increases, citizens have less opportunity to participate in the national dialogue on issues dramatically affecting our lives. RR's work represents opportunity to restore a continuous American conversation, from coast to coast and into the smallest hometowns.

Unique among media watch networks, RR is organized into national, state and county groups. This structure provides the power of national resources and organization with the effectiveness that can only be achieved by acting at a local level. Using tools provided through RR, neighbors speak with neighbors.

The network seeks out opportunities to engage the media on issues of importance, then notifies the volunteer base with Action Alerts. Volunteers respond with letters, emails, and phone calls. Our goal is to ensure that the public discussion remains productive, honest, and fair. We seek to encourage informed citizenship, the ultimate check and balance to hold government accountable to the people.
