ABC / CBS / NBC need to go. Turns out the NFL is key to their profits.
Check out this story:
The key worry here is the idea that the networks are dependent on the NFL and its huge ratings. If the NFL suddenly collapses or just regresses, those huge revenue streams that are driving the networks will start to slow.

Along with displaying the absolute lack of respect shown to our nation and flag by players not standing for our national anthem, turns out key to putting these PRAVDA media centers out of business is just one click away!
Conservatives are 20-30% of the country. They likely are over half of the football viewers. A good percentage of us doing something else with our Sunday time could ax the revenue streams propping up these evil companies, which have weaponized all content against traditional American values.
We also need laws that mega-companies can't own newspapers in major markets.
Bezos purchased WASHINGTON POST and operates at a loss, but it gives Amazon political power. It's 24/7 non-stop anti-Trump right now. Presumably Amazon, Facebook, and Google have cut deals with Hillary to continue to pay no taxes in the United States in exchange for helping her get elected.
Any other thoughts on what we can do to destroy the existing media powers in this country?
Trump's streaming 'network news' is a nice start. With internet access on most TVs, we can compete with a direct to net network with comparatively little start up cost and regulation.
The way one stops the insanity is to boycott the NFL;
that means: you don't go the games, and you don't
watch it on TV. Additionally, you don't subscribe to an NFL ticket or buy their jerseys. Also, you don't listen to ESPN during the NFL season.
When your TV box no longer sends a signal back that you are watching the NFL games, the NBA games, then their advertising revenue drops and the players no longer make $119,000,000. And when they no longer can negotiate big-money contacts, then the spoilt brats in the NFL & the NBA will start appreciating their life in America.
I didn't watch one minute of the Olympics this year. I refuse to watch NBC, CBS & ABC. I haven't watched the NBA in years, and this year I won't watch the NFL due to the policies of the NFL (re cops in Dallas) and its approval of the Rams team support for the BLM radicals. I will only watch College football, and then, only of select teams.
Another thing that we can do, which I have done with great frequency is email the advertisers. That stops revenue flow to the MSM anti-American jerks. If this was an organized effort, substantial damage could be done to their bottom line. Instead of emailing each other, we should be hitting the advertisers hard!
REMEMBER THIS:
WE DON'T NEED THE NFL, THE NFL NEEDS US!
Without us "deplorable suckers" paying their outrageous costing NFL ticket prices; without us spending OUR HARD EARNED MONEY on their ridiculously overpriced concessions; without us spending wasted hours watching overpaid, racist, thugs who hate America and make tens of millions of OUR HARD EARNED MONEY play a game; without us wasting hours watching useless commercials made by NFL sponsors who HATE OUR AMERICAN VALUES, BUT WANT US TO SPEND OUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON THEIR PRODUCTS...
WITHOUT US; THE OBSCENE AND LUDICROUSLY RICH AND RACIST, ANTI-AMERICAN NFL, NFL COMMISSIONER, NFL OWNERS, NFL MANAGERS, NFL PLAYERS, NFL SPONSORS HAVE
N O T H I N G!
REMEMBER THIS:
WE DON'T NEED THE NFL, THE NFL NEEDS US!
Until EVERYONE in the NFL realizes this and ends their P.C., "breast cancer pink" (while MILLIONS OF MEN ARE DYING OF PROSTATE CANCER), racist "Only Black Lives Matter" Anti-American, "hate cops", hate the military, hate whitey, hate, and disrespect the National anthem, America, our flag, our American values policies; and continue to hate their former fans: the NFL WILL DIE!
And everyone in the NFL who formerly got rich OFF OF OUR HARD EARNED MONEY WILL LOSE EVERYTHING! And there will be no one to mourn its passing or their financial demise because we will have all come to the realization that:
ALTHOUGH THE NFL DESPERATELY NEEDS US, THE VERY PEOPLE THEY HATE AND DISPISE:
WE DON'T NEED THE NFL ANYMORE!
Shame we lost an American institution called the Family Sitcom but what the heck, we still have the flaming faggots all over television.
Just a thought.
F em. They are supporting white genocide, criminality, and black dysfunction. Look how much major sports LOVE the mayhem when they release a new pair of Air Jordans.
The Dallas Cowboys were, that I’m aware of, the Only team that wanted to publically display support for the Police of the this nation proudly on their uniforms.............the NFL told them NO............I will watch them, boycott the rest..........Who knows maybe the NFL will “see a pattern”?
Problem is what do I do when the Cowboys play a despicable team like the Eagles with their “black power” fists in the air....but actually I think its ok, I think they are just telling the world how many superbowls they have won..I don’t think its a “political statement” LOL
End of NFL. Not football. NFL collapses, new league arises. Anthem protestors won’t be hired by any team.
I think one of the reasons NFL games are failing is that a lot of people have to work Sundays. They used to have “real” jobs.
Regardless of who wins the election, the revolt against the media masters needs to continue.
And let’s talk about media master Bezos. Every time you buy something on amazon, you’re subsidizing the WaPo and the destruction of your country. So stop. Given that amazon is a convenient way to shop, it’s also usually more expensive. So use the very easy to work with website to find what you want. Then put the product in a search engine and buy it someplace else. I’m finding that you can almost always find it cheaper someplace else. Walmart.com with their in store pickup or free shipping over $50 is almost always a better deal.
Absolutely. It’s activism by way of your checkbook and extremely effective.
I disagree. Remember that the NFL exists as a monopoly and has done everything it can to preserve that monopoly against all comers. Including, ironically, Donald Trump and the USFL.
If the NFL dies, we’ll get something better. Maybe folks will start watching sport shooting instead and share beers over an IDPA match. Or another, better football league will come about.
Another thing to consider is that sports tastes are shifting. And that’s probably a good thing. MMA is replacing boxing for example.
I get your point and agree, but short of shooting these media bastards, we don’t really have any peaceful options left. We are basically fighting a non-shooting civil war with the left, and with war comes sacrifice.
Media coverage is how a criminal career shit-fingered Midas and her rapist husband are leading in the polls against a guy who says the word pussy on camera. Media coverage is how women step forward at the 11th hour to allege groping charges against Trump with instant credibility, but discussion of Broaddrick, Willey, Jones, Epstein’s Lolita Island go unreported.
Fact is, the NFL is the revenue stream is keeping the lights on at these networks that are hell-bent on destroying our values and way of life. We are totally outgunned in this kind of information war, but destroying their NFL revenue stream is a nuclear weapon in their executive offices. It’s time to hit the button.
I am tuning out any sport that supports the thug culture. That means no NBA and now no NFL. I still watch baseball and golf for now but if they go thug, off they go.
Been doing my part. Haven’t watched any NFL this year, except for the first game of my beloved Tampa Bay Buccaneers! Watch the scores on my phone.
Think that way if you wish. But, IMHO, folks are shunning the NFL in droves because of Kapperdick and his ilk!
I agree. The a great amount ‘real jobs’ have gone to 7 day weeks or swing shifts also.
If God plans to punish the US with Jezebel for president, those who resist being led by such an evil person will need to live a life of resistance. Something as easy to give up as the NFL can have great consequences. Surely we can come up with many others.
Too late by two decades.
This organization coddles thugs who choose to dishonor the American flag, as well as prevent a member team from honoring law enforcement personnel who are under attack by thugs and racists. It is no longer Americana....
I don't miss it in the least. I have a couple of online services and I get all the video drama/movies/comedy I need from them. MLB.TV gives me my baseball fix. The WS is on tonight. I'm saving a lot of time, money, and sanity.
“I dont want to see any of our core social frameworks destroyed.”
Society survived before pro sports and TV, in fact many would say maybe it was better. I remember some men sitting around a pot belly stove in the general store telling lies. It was a great time to be a kid.
