We all agree that the media really went out of their way of making Obama look like Christ Himself. They would look the other way if he did something wrong...but criticized McCain/Palin to the bitter end. We need to take some action. Let's start with CNN.

I stopped back after the first gulf war.
When you are over seas, its on in every hotel.
we need to let them know! e-mail discontent to them.
we need to get about 20 million people to do this.
tell drudge. call rush, get him on board!
Tough to boycott something I boycotted 8 years ago.
I am with you 100%!!
Agreed. I started during the Clinton years and haven’t let up since!
We have to talk to other conservative blogs, friends, people we work with...just ask them to e-mail, call, or write to CNN - just tell them that they will not watch them because of the bias crap they put out.
In case anyone is interested in writing to them...here is their comment page -

Me too. And I forbid my son from selecting the MSNBC channel as well.
Except for occasionally a little Glenn Beck on CNN Headline News, I’ve not watched anything but FoxNews for several years now.
Haven’t watched CNN or PMSNBC in years - and recently, stopped watching FNC (and believe me, I was a “serious” Fox News Junkie!)....AFter the third debate, I said enough is enough - I couldn’t even watch FNC anymore.
I didn’t turn FNC on yesterday or today...I’m “SO OVER” FNC...probably won’t even take a peek at it until next spring....when all the Obamathon hoopla will be settled down...you know, President Elect....., Inauguration Day.... First 100 Days....etc. BLECH!!
I lived without Fox (didn’t have satellite then) for the first 6 years of Clinton’s presidency..I can surely do without it now!!!
I don’t watch any news station except FOX. I never watch Ellen, Oprah or BET. I skip over 2-13, and most of the Comedy Shows since they are all smut and libs. I don’t watch the “judge” shows ‘cuz they’re all about ignorant people. I don’t watch Sex In The City either. I haven’t watch any of these for years.
I watched Glenn Beck on Healine News Cnn, that was it. He is over at Fox now, so pretty easy to boycott something I never watched.
My e-mail to CNN:
I’m turning you off.........for good.
See ya’, you biased excuse for a news station.

I was thinking about this today and it occurred to me that just ‘not watching’ them is not enough. A true boycott involves punishing them where they live and that is the bottom line, their financials.
Watch them enough, or designate someone to watch them enough to compile who advertises with them and then systematically boycott their sponsors. If enough do this, they will take their advertising $ elsewhere and abandon CNN.
In fact, a sponsor boycott could be conducted against more than one liberal media outlet at a time, I mean if your not buying something, your not buying no matter who they sponsor.
Post a contact list of all the sponsors, listing three executive officers full US Mail contact information. The CEO, President and Chief Financial Officer if available. Encourage everyone not to just eMail, but to eMail and HAND-WRITE a USPS (Snail Mail) letter addressed to each of these people within each company indicating precisely what you are doing, built around the theme of we are systematically boycotting your products (or services) because you sponsor CNN. Be advised that we are quite tightly connected with many hundreds of thousands of like minded individuals and families who are being sought to join this boycott each and every day etc...
If they keep track of such things, it is liken to writing a representative, a handwritten letter represents two to four fold what an eMail represents as far as constituent opinion. Cable news sponsors would likely be even more sensitized.
It is certainly worth a try.
Thoughts...
When I saw their anchors crying when Clinton got impeached, I knew their was a problem. Then I heard they compromised with Saddam to get coverage.
No reason anyone should still be there.
Boycott “everything leftist” forever! Boycott the entire MSM forever! The MSM really continues to lose both support and money everyday!
Haven’t watched CNN for years. I am done with Fox too. I appreciate the hard work Hannity put in on this election, but he’s not enough to win me back.
1) threaten media with stock sale
2) sell media stock
3) pool assets, and buy a major station
Thanks for your reply - I do appreciate it. I will do some thinking and possibly readjust our tactics against CNN. It's getting the people to acutally do it - that's going to be tough.
Boycotted CNN a long time ago. Today starts the boycott of Fox News.

Agreed. I never watch TV news anyway, but have long had foxnews.com as my home page on explorer (I’d always check that and then zoom right over to FR). That ended last night as I could not bear to see zero’s image everywhere. FR is now my home page.
