Believe me, CNN does not want this fight. If we did exactly what the United Auto Workers do to one of the Big Three automakers every contract period we could make the rest of the media think twice about their programming choices.
The UAW targets one company out of the three and forces them to comply to their demands. The other two Automakers fall in line and give the UAW what it wants for fear of being targeted themselves. This is the blueprint that should be followed to compel the rest of the traditional broadcast and print media to abandon their partisanship and treat both parties with fairness and integrity. This is absolutely the only way that things will ever change....if we make them change.Pick one or two media entities and really go after them.
I apologize for the vanity but I'm at my wit's end about the lack of basic fairness in our media. Can somebody steer me where I can find others to help me contact GOP politicos and see if we can't get something started? I will spend every bit of spare time working on this if I can get in a few doors.
Freegards,

I've been boycotting CNN for YEARS!!
If we're only HALF as successful as we were against the Dixie Chicks, CNN is TOAST!
A month ago, I had to watch CNN for two weeks. I couldn't give up the news, and it was CNN or nothing.
Well CNN has always been biased, but I still couldn't believe how bad it has gotten. Even people presented as reasonable such as Wolf Blitzer and Lou Dobbs, were horrible, horrible. How I thought they ever had integrity is beyond me. I was in disbelief at how bad CNN has become.
What's CNN?
I refuse to watch CNN now! It's scary how biased and shallow they are.
That is a good idea...Republicans should just refuse to go on CNN...God knows, there are better ways to get their message out. I think after tomorrow, this should be high on our activism list.
....but I'm at my wit's end about the lack of basic fairness in our media.

If EVERYONE who is not a lib-news-sucking leftist parasite, completely boycotted every liberal newrag and phoned all their advertisers noting they will not buy from ANYONE advertising in the leftist-biased rags....things would change real quick.
I have not bought a liberal rag in over ten years. If everyone did that, things would change. Just shut them down do to lack of advertising funds...end of issue.
What's a CNN?
I always get irked that every major airport I go to is blarring CNN.
I only watch CNN when channel surfing between Comedy Central and Fox news.
For about a second, it is on.
Click, click, click.
We've never had cable, and do not watch television in general. I don't read the newspaper, yet I know more of what's going on than nearly all of the people I know (put together!) You could give up the news and not miss it one little bit.
You and me both!
Communist News Network AKA Carter News Network
ME TOO!!!
Wrong Target
Boycott Time Warner.
CNN makes it available for free, perhaps pays them.
I've been advocating for some time now that people simply refuse to allow CNN, MSNBC, and the rest of the television MSM into their homes. Do NOT tune into their programs. When we want to know what they have been reporting, there are plenty of other ways to find out that information without tuning into their programs. The same goes for the anti-American, traitorous newsrags, such as the New York Times, etc. Do NOT subscribe to these papers, and encourage every other person you know to refuse, and/or cancel their subscriptions as well.
I feel your frustration, PresidentFelon, and share it with you. I'm furious at what they get away with. I'm also furious at the imbeciles that are too ignorant to even know they're being duped.
