I wrote the above letter out of frustration but sure wish we could organize ourselves and like-minded politicians to actually pull this off. Republicans will always be at a severe disadvantage in the media wars if we don't figure out how to embarass these people and reveal them for what they are.

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,

My disgust with the media is what my straight R vote this year is all about. In 2004 is when I first starting using the internet. What I have discovered about our media absolutely sickens me. I boycott all news channels (xcept FoxNews) and ALL shows on CBS, NBC and ABC. FoxNews-Brit, Gibson and Cavuto is what I watch when I'm in the mood.

Thanks. My TV is set to skip CNN as I channel surf.

[msnimje]

No good reason to watch CNN, ever.

"Republicans will always be at a severe disadvantage in the media wars if we don't figure out how to embarass these people and reveal them for what they are."

I couldn't agree more.

You have freepmail.

[WOSG]

How can I boycott something that I don't watch?
How can I stop watching dreck that already is *UNWATCHABLE*.

"Believe me, CNN does not want this fight."

The way they act, I figured they like declining ratings.

CNN has not shown it's ugly false words and face in our home since FNS came out striking them out of the competition.

I listen to conservative talk show hosts on a station that airs CNN news at the top of the hour and bottom of the hour break. CNN has the nerve to call itself the "the most trusted news...", what a joke.

CNN is so irrelevant and should have their heads hung in shame for their deliberate and calculated perfidy and vicious anti-American cheap swill.

I've boycotted ALL the MSM Networks for years now. Yes only once in a bluemoon do I watch FOX even. FOX is fairweather whichever way the wind blows.

Rush and FRee Republic!!!!

Very rarely listen to Hannity anymore and I no longer lisen to Boortz or Savage.

If I boy*ott the letters *** I wo*'t be able to spell *orre*tly. What do you have agai*st the letters ***?

[DeFault User]

The last time I watched CNN with any regularity Pat Buchanan was with the Reagan administration and cohosting Crossfire with a semi-senile liberal who drooled. It was rather amusing to see Pat give the old fellow his cues and help him through the show. That was before Pat and CNN both went off the deep end.

If I were to boycott CNN, I'd have to start watching it first.

[concerned about politics]

I never, ever watch the Communist News Network anyway. If I wanted that crap, I'd go to a Communist website and read about their agenda myself.

[planter]

I used to cringe when freepers called CNN the "communist news network" or the "Clinton news network. I saw CNN as a typically liberal leaning news network but relatively fair as far as networks go. However, I've watched them a few times in the past couple of months and they have definitely gone off the deep end. I haven't seen anything so blatantly biased since my days of watching the CBC years ago.

Have been boycotting CNN for years. But in October, wife and I went on a cruise for 7 days, and the only news was CNN. The ships satellite had CNN, CNN International, CNN in Spanish, and Fox (Denver affiliate - mostly sports).

I blasted the cruise line in my critique! If you think CNN is biased, try the international version! Pravda would have been jealous!

[Liberty Valance]

[ONEBYEONE]

My friend you are 100 percent correct. Here in Japan, we can no longer get Fox News and my satelite of SKY/PERFECT includes CNN (which I never ever watch) but because of wanting to see the coverage I decided to watch a few hours for the past few days. I am so outraged with them, that I will cancel everything, except watching MLB baseball.

[Andy from Beaverton]

I've been boycotting CNN for over two months by canceling my satellite. But that also means I'm boycotting Faux News.

[RavenATB]

CNN is forbidden in my home, and in my office.

Let me know if I can help beyond that.

[Earthdweller]

[tcrlaf]

Great idea, but CNN does not consider itself an "American" organization any more, but an INTERNATIONAL one that just happens to be based in Atlanta...

The loss of US ad revenues may hurt them a bit, but it's the worldwide English audience they are chasing...

[psjones]

Can't help you there, I don't watch CNN. I stopped watching CNN except for the occasional stopover, since our recall election here in CA when Wolf Blitzer commented that Arnold won, "despite his accent" as if having an accent alone should have been a reason not to vote for the guy.
