I think they have done a terrible injustice to every campaign this year and because of this we should ban news media from our homes from Friday May 30 until June 2. Just 4 days, maybe this will send a message, please join me in this crusade. It matters not who you support as the news media are incredible phonies.

I'm a little late for your boycott but I would love to try and start a nation wide effort to put these people out of business. They are not supposed to have an agenda. They are supposed to report the news and not manage it for there benefit. It is just appalling that they can get away with there bias reporting and nobody tries to stop them. Good post, goofy girl. Do I have to call you that, it doesn't feel right.

I am goofy. (smart and goofy:) I am still enjoying the boycott! I think the media and most of the shows on TV are political advertisements! Even movies are raft with political commentary, go green, big industry=devil, etc. We are bombarded with poltically correct garbage, I would like to see an entire day dedicated to being as un-politically correct as we can!!

Now I see the name Jamie up there so that is what I will call you. Jamie, sign me up. I will join whatever you want to do to stop these people. It is just out of control. When I was younger, at least they tried to hide their agenda, now they don't even care.

LOL, how about Danny. I try to avoid being PC because I feel I have the right to say stupid things but I'm not crass just to be a jerk. As far as I'm concerned political correctness is just a liberal plan to take away our freedom of speech. Sorry, got of topic there for a minute. Sign me up for anything we can do and I will be glad to help you in anyway you ask.

I thought you were speaking of BANNING journalists....
But I like the news I even watch fake news programs... like 700 club and faux news... But the rest are almost as slanted, because they know only what their fed... Lately what passes for the news is some bozos blog... and the newsfeed sources are where we get the info.... Besides most voters have had made their mind up made up for them long before nov 08'
VOTE BOB BARR IN 08' the thinking conservatives best choice.

Just do as I do. Get all your news from the NMSM (non main stream media). It works. One must be selective though. I sleep better and am better informed.

The news media has been very biased in this campaign. They have an agenda by supporting BHO. If the news media wants you to believe them, they should be honest.

If I were adept at creating web pages I would start one, asking for a ban on news media. Perhaps, if enough people show their disgust by not watching, ratings would fall and maybe just maybe, they would start reporting the news we want to hear about. Hey it is a pipe dream.

Robert to Jamie (... May 31, 2008 01:45:49

The ratings would fall only if those who have people meters and Nielsen diaries don't watch. ;)
