That's about what I expected - they really don't care what you think. Concentrate on the sponsors.

Looks like CBS doesn't care anymore than most democrats do when called on their distortions, half-truths and outright lies.

did not howard stern get into a urination competition with les moonvies?

Their talking point is watch and decide. They don't understant ALL CBS PROGRAMING will be a target. This will reduce their ad calculation ACROSS THE BOARD.

Stockholders should be scared for their profits. Even a minor edit will do nothing because it will be reinserted in the euro version. CBS should spend a few more years loosing money.

Erase them from your TV presets. CBS does not exist in november.

there's little we can say

I agree with them on this. The die is cast.

That won't help from me; I don't watch CBS now. I'll have to concentrate on boycotting sponsers.

--We invite Americans to watch THE REAGANS --

I'll have to decline that wonderful invitation, I'll be cleaning out the gutters.

The big dogs at CBS have drunk the leftist ideological kool-aid. You will never alter their opinions one iota.
Yes, concentrate on the sponsors.

the film includes several scenes that the Times calls "historically questionable."

Translation: They're lies.

BTW, does anyone know who the sponsors of this supposed bit of entertainment programming are? Isn't it a bit of a Catch-22? -- we want to boycott the show and its sponsors, but how do we know who the sponsors are without watching the show?

If one wants to see a decent bio of Reagan, I suggest The PBS one. You can tell it was produced by people who don't like the man, but it is still a damn sight better than that CBS crap.

I for one, will watch the show and write down all the sponsors and email each of them daily for one month = letting them know that their names are on a list of companies to Boycott here in the Heartland. CBS is strickly scum. They couldn't have done anything else that proves once and for all to the whole world what bias and just how Democratic the networks really are. Streisand says it's a wonderful show - can you imagine how badly it protrays Ronnie??? Will they show him liking little boys too??? How about groping starlets as President??? Maybe he'll curse the pope and Jews ?? Nothing would amaze me knowing how low the liberals will stoop--- Here in Minn. we saw with our own eyes what they are capable of when the Wellstone memorial took place and they insisted everyone "Win one for Paul" -- Slimy, Evil Bastards - that's what they are!!!!

The best is to block the whole network. This is a rare chance to not only impact individual sponsors but to DIRECTLY zap CBS. November sets the advertising rates. Higher ratings mean more dollars. Lower ratings mean less dollars.

Thus if enough people who have TV through systems which neilson uses to determine ratings block (VChip, deprograming tuner) CBS, their rates will be mandated to be for less money.
