It's final. I've talked to some Freepers and we have decided to boycott CNN. You may ask why them and not MSNBC (which is more liberal) or someone else. Well, CNN is more standard and it seems like everyone in this nation takes this giant news outlet at face value. It's time we attack and attack now. Read on...

I turn the TV away from CNN or Headline News every time I enter the gym. I have refused to watch it for many years now.

What took them so long? I’m boycotting everyone, including the biggest disappointment in news, Fox.

Good luck with your boycott. Actually, I am flabberghasted that you were watching CNN until now. (I have not watched CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC or CBS since the late 1990s, except to catch Dan Rather HAVE to discuss the Iraqi war in a neutral manner. I enjoyed that!)

I’ve been boycotting CNN and MSNBC and the 3 major networks for at least the last 5 years. Haven’t even stopped on them for a few seconds. And as of a few days ago, I am now boycotting Fox. Heck I can get what news I need from Rush anyway.

Four years and climbing without TV. Life is much better when you live it instead of watch it.

I will boycott, already have limited CNN viewing, but does it even matter if you are not one of the Nielson raters for that week?

I made that decision around 1997.

"Don't watch mainstream media. Cancel your newspapers and magazines. Don't watch network news. Use the Internet for your news as much as you can"

I made a vow to never watch any MSM news again, we stopped watching CNN, MSNBC years ago and we are very close to scratching FOX news, with ORealy in the tank for Obomination as well.

Frankly I and my entire family don't trust any of them or what they have to say. They are all propaganda tools of Satan and the democRATS to bend and mold the minds and will of the weak minded and uninformed to drink the Obamessiah Kool Aid.

While I will pray for Obama's salvation, as far as a blessing for America's new "TZAR" to quote Tevya... "May God bless TZAR Obama and keep him far away from us!"

Good luck boycotting CNN if you travel and have to spend time in Atlanta airport.

I saw your post last night and I was mulling it over, while responding to the Carl Cameron assault on Sarah Palin.

I'm thinking we should turn our guns on FOXNews, and force them to fire Carl Cameron. Cameron is guilty of journalistic malpractice, and should be relieved of duty.

FOXNews will also be an easier starting target, because we wouldn't be going after the whole network, just one obviously incompetent/malicious "journalist" employed there.
