The REAL problem is....conservatives do not know how to boycott. They never have.
Boycotting Fox itself makes people FEEL GOOD....but it doesn't accomplish a thing.
The only successful way to "boycott" is to watch Fox and make a list of all the sponsors running ads over a 24 hour period.Then write the advertisers and tell them you're not buying their products anymore...and tell them why (i.e., Fox is foisting sexual transgenderism into our living rooms, family circles, and into the minds of our viewing children, etc.).
Also, it's a MUST to post the list of advertisers on FR....along with every political and social platform available to you.
I've always respected the old adage "Follow the Money Trail". This form of boycotting fits in nicely here. Hit 'em where it hurts......in the pocketbooks!
Otherwise, you're just spinning your wheels.
It entails work and dedication most folks don't want to wade into....which is why conservative "boycotts" usually reap no results whatsoever.
If 100 thousand of us reading this thread quit watching their channel, the Fox management could care less....they'll pick up that many or more muddled viewers who will tune into Fox just to see and hear the sickening freak show that is Bruce Jenner.
Again, FReepers who have or who are going to wipe Fox off their screens will accomplish NADA, NADA, NADA except make the wipers feel good about themselves.

I am not not watching FOX News to boycott them or make myself feel good.
I simply have no use for their product.
DULY NOTED LENI!......;)
“Again, FReepers who have or who are going to wipe Fox off their screens will accomplish NADA, NADA, NADA except make the wipers feel good about themselves.”
Is this your rationalization so you can continue watching it?
BTW, I don’t agree that conservatives don’t know how to boycott. What’s missing is not the knowhow but the WILL and the ORGANIZATION to do it.
The other thing we’re miserable at and that the left is very good at, is relentless activism - taking to the streets and making the lives of CEOs and politicos very miserable if they don’t toe the line.
Until we get to where we make the lives of the elite even more miserable than the left does, we’re going to keep losing.
What has become crystal clear to me is that well organized, rabid activists are who runs the world. To them losing an election is just a bump in the road.
Good info.
Disagree. Every single defection is felt. There are 74 million Trump voters (likely 85m). You think if they all left Faux it wouldn’t hurt?
Knee-grow, please.
