People have been making money by the sack full and gaining power and recognition for generations preaching about who listeners should hate, fear, outlaw, lynch, beat to death. Hitler and Stalin have been joined by Glenn Beck, Lou Dobbs and many wannabe head haters - including an ex-governor.

In a market-driven economy what's one of the best ways to respond? For me it is to let Fox and CNN know, I am not watching until things change and and recommending the same to others.

No Fox, No CNN. No advertising on Fox or CNN. Will they miss me - grin? Only if several hundred thousand join with me in skipping their favorite shows on Fox and CNN.

Figures, link ends up leading to Media Matters. Here is the text:

Here's what people who used to work for fox have to say about the how it works there.

And Media Matters has an excellent record of exposing Right-Wing media stupidity so I'll go with them any day.

And having Glenn "Chicken Little" Beck (who is no reporter) trivializes EVERYTHING! Plus it really doesn't matter who started it, because it doesn't get him off the hook for his abject lies and blatant stupidity.

OK, what was actually said?

That poor little Faux News is being repressed?

Really?

No, they being called out for what they are. If they can't take, too bad. No censorship of any kind is happening here. So Beck, stop with your fake whining.
