BLAST FAX

n.

A fax that is sent to a large number of recipients.

"Many Senate aides said their offices are counting input only from home-state constituents. Senate aides said that in recent years, they have been flooded with 'blast faxes' and e-mail 'spam lists,' both of which can send countless messages to senators with the push of a computer button."

— Michael Kranish, "Corporate America holds off on lobbying," The Boston Globe, January 21, 1999
