VANITY: I'll Make an FR Donation for Everyone Who Pledges to Boycott MSNBC
me ^ | April 8, 2004 | redlipstick

Posted on 04/08/2004 7:14:37 PM PDT by EllaMinnow

I've been driven to post my first vanity by the out and out disgusting behavior of Chris Matthews and Don Imus. Matthews gave full rein today to 4 9/11 widows spouting conspiracy theories...he even said that VP Cheney should be given sodium pentathol before his Commission testimony. Imus has become unwatchable. He has gone far beyond humor in his insults of President Bush - far beyond.

So, here's the deal... the only way we can hurt MSNBC's ratings is by boycotting them ourselves. I'm willing to donate 25 cents to FR for every boycott pledgee on this thread - my maximum is $50, but so is my minimum!

I'm hoping that others might be willing to match my donations. How about it guys? I would love to wake up in the morning and find at least a hundred pledges.

I watched them. cyncoper and I swigged wine every time Chris Matthews said "Scooter Libby."

Heck, come to think of it, I'll save $50 on wine this month alone.

I've never seen MSNBC. I will continue to not watch it.

(Isn't it odd, how I make a little $20 contribution, and the Freepathon bar jumps from 32% to 87% full?)

I'm in!

I also agree with you that a line has been crossed.

Disgraceful and it ought not to be tolerated. And in this house, it won't be.

MSNBC has been purged from my home. I don't have the time nor the energy to listen to wretched idiot liberals spew their stupidity.

BTW - I'm sure you'll get more than 200 pledges on those terms... why not up your donation to FR? The forum could DEFINITELY use your money!
