#1 let me say - I’m not giving up TV, I like TV a lot. I don’t pay too much attention to it but I like it. (And right now in Sandy-land I haven’t had TV for 10 days and it stinks)

#2 I was wise to the MSM 40+ years ago. I used to tag along when my dad would take my brothers to the barbershop for haircuts so I could read the magazines. Esquire still had the Vargas girls in those days. And I knew right off the bat that Time magazine was a bunch of cr*p.

#3 Then went the “women’s” mags. Slowly but surely I stopped reading them all, Vogue, Glamour, Red Book, etc because of their undying devotion to Abortion, Abortion, Abortion. In fact the only place I ever saw a pro-life statement was in Essense, the black women’s mag, and the woman quoted basically said there is always room for one more, “rich or poor you throw food in the garbage can every day”. I don’t know how much Essense has deteriorated but my guess is they’ve gone down the tubes during these Obama-days if they didn’t before

I’m down to Women’s Day and Family Circle and Better Homes & Gardens and I don’t even cook!

#4 I was still buying the newspapers in 2001, but I gave up the NY Times years ago and the last time I read it (we bought the sunday paper for packing material) about 5 years ago it was breathtaking in how stupid and juvenile it was. Just awful. I don’t know when I stopped buying the paper, but it was years and years ago.

#5 I gave up network news ages ago, they’ve been shills for the left for as long as I can remember and beyond that they don’t try and inform, only inflame. You are better off with Mother Jones, heck you might be better off with Worker’s World Daily than you are with ABC/CBS/NBC.

SO I don’t think there is anything else I can do to kill the nefarious beast that is the MSM. Other than give up TV, but see #1 above.

I thought I couldn't live without TV either, but then I moved out of the country and HAD to live for some time without it and discovered I could.

Take the plunge, j, it's doable!

Then you have no one to blame but yourself. Pathetic.
