Boycott MSNBC petition
self generated | september 5, 2009 | Dave Lewis

Posted on 09/05/2009 9:13:52 AM PDT by ldavelewis

Let's organize a serious online petition to boycott MSNBC, including email links to advertisers and lists of products and services to be shunned as well as alternatives to be promoted. Make it succinct and simple, easily completed in just a few minutes. There must be one place where all who oppose MSNBC can organize and demonstrate their collective disapproval

‘What I have not been able to figure out is how MSNBC is still on the air.’

Either their operating expenses are super-low, or they’re being bankrolled by NBC (and Microsoft? Isn’t that what the MS stands for?). Or, they’re losing their shirts, but putting up a brave front...

That’s right... Their ratings are in the sludge of the bottom of the bucket along with CNN. Just like Obama’s minions...give them enough rope....

You might want to E-mail Bill O’Riley for an answer. It seems that Immelt has invested GE stocks in Green Energy and is making millions with help of Obama administration

Same goes for A&E and BBCA...When I first got DirecTV , those were two of my most favored channels...I mean i could turn them on most times and get programs like Lovejoy, and the Sharpes movies...Now, most of their programs are shinola. BBCA still has a few good programs in their lineup, but I can’t remeber the Last time I watched anything on A&E.
I still remember the “good old days” with A&E, they had some good period pieces, and If memory serves *they* were the ones who aired the Poriot series on the weekends...Too bad..so sad. Now all it is is and imitation of the Biography Channel.

Forget the petition, just don’t watch.

Bingo! Just ignore them, that's what drives them crazy. A boycott is a badge of honor to them.

Given their rating, it seems like they are already being boycotted.

I thought we were already boycotting MSNBC. Nobody watches that drivel, not even Democrats.

Yeah, I thought I heard Bernard Goldberg say on O'Reilly last night that Dims & Independents are an important part of FOX News' success. Whooda thunk it?

I would rather see a boycott of any company that in any way supports the NAACP, LULAC, and other racially divisive organizations.

“And there, in a nutshell, is conservatives’ main problem.”

Not bothering to boycott a network that nobody watches anyway? Not even close.

LOL! Monster Quest....they never find any monsters, or even aliens for that matter.

I know what you mean. I loved the show where they went underground into tunnels or unearthed ancient Roman cities. I found a channel called History International on Comcast #116. There they repeat the “good” History Channel shows.

MSNBC is digging it’s own grave.

Seriously, point out the GE/Immelt/Obama connection at every opportunity and hammer the point home. Otherwise, boycotts are more symbolic and get silly when used at the drop of a hat. I DO like the Fresh Fields “buycott” and I hope it brings them a whole new customer demographic. Who can say, I know the health nutz have also fought a decades-long, twilight struggle against the medical/pharmaceutical/agricultural-industrial complex that continually tries to take their choices of supplements, unpasteurized dairy products and alternative treatments away. We might win some natural allies there.

Otherwise, I say, let GE pour its money down the MSNBC rathole and any advertisers dumb enough to waste their dough do likewise.

Ever noticed over the years that all the villains in “City Confidential” were always lily-white?

After a while, I couldn’t help but notice. Paul Winfield’s smarmy, supercilious narration sort of added to the effect.

The most efficient way to drive MSNBC out of business is to have it continue to do exactly what it's doing with its current gaggle of drooling staff morons.

It's like taking a course in how to lose money with an ideological trainwreck media business.

And don't get the remaining viewer to boycott MSNBC. It's Olberman's mom's only joy in life, seeing her little psycho dressed up and pretending to be a real man on TV (and don't tell her he isn't wearing any pants under that desk, it would break her heart).


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Sorry. Can’t say that I have, because i doubt i’ve ever watched an episode of it, and certainly not a whole episode.

Never piqued my interest.
