BOYCOTT CNN!!! Whose with me??! Dont watch them AGAIN EVER!!!!!!!

[Endangered Specie]

[Renew Deal]

1. Boycott? Protest

There should be a mob there

[KittyWampus]

13. With You On That... We Should March On CNN

I am dead serious.

[Renew Deal]

17. We should organize a mob.

Pitchforks and all

[Stephan_Ketz]

41. YEAH

A mob would be great

[Feanorcurufinwe]

60. Storm the Bastille!!

On va user les pavés

et ils vont reculer...

[PhuLoi]

63. Flaming torches? I always wanted to be in a mob scene with

flaming torches.

[Feanorcurufinwe]

65. Mobs are exciting but dangerous.

I wouldn't recommend it. There really is such a thing as a 'mob mentality' and it's not something you are proud of experiencing once it's over.

[Lori Price CLG]

46. Since I refuse to watch the CensoringNewsNetwork... what did they do? n/t

[Leilani]

56. For one thing,

they did NOT show the Wes Clark speech which was terrific!

But overall, they just bad mouthed the Dems, every chance they got.

They had right wing talking heads on, talking negatively about everything.

It was not journalism, it was opinion throughout.

And Candy Crowley was the worst, IMO.

[ThePhilosopher04]

69. MSNBC much, much better tonight....

and other than Scarface saying he rushed through it, the coverage was predominantly positive with even Pat Buchanan, for all intents-and-purposes, giving him an endorsement. More than likely, he won't admit that, but you can tell by the way he's talking, it wouldn't kill him if Kerry wins.

[ClassWarrior]

74. One more time: CNN's viewer-comment line, 404-827-0234

Press 8 and give a live operator a piece of your mind.

[Leilani]

79. They have gotten my calls...

I have sent countless emails...

but this time I am sending them a paper letter, telling them I will contact all their advertisers to complain.

If you want to get to them...threaten to boycott their advertiser s products.

Follow the money!!!

PS I like Lou Dobbs & Aaron Brown

[spanone]

88. No, the worse was Ralph Fuckface Reed.

[DemBones DemBones]

66. CNN had the chairman of the RNC critique John Kerry's speech.

I haven't watched CNN since Day One, when they showed what their true colors were, but others have been reporting. Wednesday night, they had Ralph Reed critique John Edwards's speech.


I demand that the DNC chair be allowed to critique Bush*'s speech.

[Langis]

2. I'm with you

That was unfuckingbelivable

I will never watch CNN again

[Wabbajack]

3. What did they do?

[Endangered Specie]

7. read the GD threads, youll see...

theyve pissed on our Parade FOR THE LAST DAMN TIME!

[RockaFowler]

4. I'm With You

That's it. After that stupid Wolf and Judy wanted someone to rain on John Kerry's parade - What is that?

[WinterStorm]

5. Cancel cable news day

Let's get something going to do a big cancel news day on the same day.

Thousands of us block cable news channels on the same day.

How about it?

:kick:

[lapfog_1]

6. Watching C-SPAN... what did they do? What is the f-bomb?

[jdj]

50. someone on CNN said the f word, but I have yet to find out who

or under what circumstances.

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

8. I already don't ever watch them

but I am going to get my husband to never turn them on. He rarely ever does, but I'd be happier if it were NEVER.

I wrote them three emails yesterday about their crappy coverage of the convention.

[Jacobin]

9. Just figuring that out?

:eyes:

[mike1963]

10. I quit watching that piece of shit months ago...

:grr:

[classof56]

I don't watch them now, glad to say

I watched the convention and Kerry's amazing speech on C-Span 2 (I think it is). Looks like I missed some interesting "stuff" on CNN. I can only imagine, judging from some other posts. But that will have to do me--I'm with you. Will try hard never to deliberately watch CNN again.

Bush Must Go!!!

[Goldom]

11. email i just sent to cnn on behalf of americans-

"Where are the ****ing balloons"?

Where is the ****ing unbaised media?

[jackstraw45]

12. Been saying this for DAYS....I will NEVER watch again

Who else is with us!!!

[Window]

27. Count me in...

I hate the bastards.

[name not needed]

14. I'll watch CNN

the second after Ted Turner buys the fucking station back! When he owned CNN it was the most respected news network on earth. Ever since he sold it it's been nothing but GOP sellouts and junk news and fluff.

[Reciprocity]

24. Ted we need you.

Sent my angry e-mail a couple of days ago.

[MoonRiver]

15. If I could block it on our t.v.s it would never, never be on.

I won't turn it on EVER, but my hubby still does :eyes:.

[Bluebear]

16. DONE with them, 7/29/04

[DaveofCali]

22. WE SHALL ALL BOYCOTT THE MAJOR NEWS NETWORKS!!!

JUST LIKE THE REPUBLICANS BOYCOTTED SOME OF US THAT SPOKE OUT AGAINST BUSH, WE SHALL BOYCOTT THE PROPAGANDISTS OF BUSH!!! THEY HAVE SHOWED THEMSELVES FOR WHAT THEY REALLY ARE, AND WE MUST NOT ENDORSE THEIR ACTIONS!!! WE SHOULD PROUDLY SAY THAT WE DO NOT WATCH THE CORPORATE MEDIA UNTIL IT CHANGES ITS WAYS AND ALLOWS FAIR AND RESPECTABLE JOURNALISM BACK INTO THE AIRWAVES!!!

[jdj]

52. I'll admit I did watch Barrack Obama's interview with Judy

Woodruff,which he handled swimmingly. She looks more haggish every day.

But I have not watched these networks regularly since the day Air America came on. AAR filled a void for me.

If the truth be told, it's the liberals that are probably the audience, because we actually pay attention to world events.

[never_get_over_it]

18. I would join you but I already don't watch the

cheneyers - but I'll tell you what I do have access to them now but will be moving in August and when I order my new cable system I won't order that level unless it is the only way I can get Lifetime, HGTV, foodtv and C-SPAN because those are the only channels I watch except during regular tv season then I watch NBC one hour a week for West Wing...

[Booster]

19. I'm with ya!

They have been disgraceful during this whole thing, but MSNBC hasn't been much better. C-SPAN rocks!

[onefreespiritedchick]

25. Plus, Wolf, Judy totally dissed Kerry's Speech

They hardly had any good words - even the pundits at faux had more praise. What happened? Did they receive a memo to become faux lite?

[bhunt70]

20. worst coverage ever.

[imax2268]

21. you know...

the very first night I turned on MSNBC and have watched their coverage all this week...and I have to say that I am very impressed with their coverage...much better then CNN...

I just sent CNN a letter and told them they have lost another viewer...forever...

[Reciprocity]

28. MSNBC is where I make my home at now.

[LunaC]

68. Same here

While a bit of bias slips in from time to time, it's nowhere near as blatant and disturbing as CNN. I find that I'm much calmer watching MSNBC 'cuz I'm not pissed off at the Talking Heads all the time.

[Leilani]

80. I heard that MSNBC is getting really good ratings

all through the convention.

[Cogito ergo doleo]

23. Absolutely with you!

No More CNN...EVER!
:toast:

[Longhorn]

26. Be sure to catch Jon Stewart's trashing of CNN and other networks

on tonight's show. It was fantastic! He really took on how they covered Rev. Sharpton's speech. You gotta see it -- I couldn't possibly do it justice!

[chookie]

40. I loved his response to them!

"What the *fuck* were YOU watching?"

Fuck the bastards -- I hate them and what they have done to my country. Useless shits!

I watched on C-Span!

[Longhorn]

42. Me, too!

I only missed a couple of hours the whole week! It was great!

[depakid]

29. Your blood pressure will improve, that's for sure

CNN is unhealthy for any thinking person to watch.

[Kitka]

30. I haven't watched that shit in years. I'm there.

[nini]

31. I cut cable after the 2002 elections and REFUSE to give a penny

to those bastards ever again.

they can all go directly to hell.

[Feanorcurufinwe]

32. I already talked to DishTV I can cancel

basic cable with CNN and keep my international channel once my agreement is up.

[liveoaktx]

34. You can also BLOCK the channels so they aren't on the list

That's what we did with CNN and FOX. Left MSNBC up for Countdown.

[Feanorcurufinwe]

59. Well, my real point is I don't want to pay them.

And I want my satelite provider to know that the reason I am canceling is because of CNN. The good news is I will be able to keep my international channel.

[Change has come]

37. m s r n c was no better

Immediately trashing the middle class tax cut as yet another flip flop. We have to organize and go after the advertisers.

[Feanorcurufinwe]

43. well, I already don't have that hehe

[carpetbagger]

64. I think Cheney News Network was worse.

MSGOP put a bunch of mostly republican talking heads on. CNN had "reporters" barfing out GOP talking points and rolling their eyes.

[LibertyorDeath]

33. Let these Fuckers know they are losing Viewers

Direct contact numbers,

CNN NEWS CHIEF Eason Jordan. 404.827.5111. fax: [phone]. [e-mail]

I tuned out cnn 6 month ago I'm better for it.

biased piece of shit network

how high would you like us to jump Mr. Rove u just name it.

bush ass licking sycophants

[ParisFrance]

35. I don't see the exteme partisanship on CNN as I did fox news

Who are you talking about?

[Poiuyt]

39. It didn't start until relatively recently

I could be wrong, but about at 9/11, CNN became the mouthpiece for the Bush White House. They may not be as obvious as Fox, but they are just as biased.

[LibertyorDeath]

36. Let these MFs know they are losing Viewers

Direct contact numbers,

[West Coast Democrat]

38. I only watch one show: Capital Gang

I love watching the rest of them pick on Bob Novak!!

[Mr_Spock]

44. Geez, how many here quote Faux News? Which is worse? Boycott Faux first!!!

Geez, can we put Faux out of business first? CNN and others will see their failure and learn from it!!

BOYCOTT FAUX NEWS

They started this tabloid news crap and they need to go down as an example to the rest!!

BOYCOTT FAUX NEWS

IF they had NO Dem's watching them they would become irrelevent and shivel and die. Start at the head - start with FAUX DAMN IT!!!

[Endangered Specie]

48. Long since boycotted them.

[AnnInLa]

45. already emailed them....flood them with emails

[ClassWarrior]

75. Jam their phones too - CNN's viewer-comment line, 404-827-0234

Press 8 and tie up a live operator.

[ribrepin]

86. I just E-mailed them

Maybe they will get the sarcasm:

Breaking News!!! Breaking News!!!
Why aren't the balloons dropping!!! There's something wrong with the balloons!!! Train that camera on the balloons still in the net. Maybe you should get Ralph Reed and Ed Gillipse in the critique the balloon drop. Way to go CNN!!! Your coverage was a sight to behold.

[Myra]

47. Too late. I haven't watched them again ever for years.

'Cept for Lou Dobbs.

[Oilwellian]

49. I am so there already

I refuse to watch anything on CNN except Lou Dobb's coverage of outsourcing. Although, I did get curious after Kerry's speech and switched from CSpan to CNN for a few minutes. Sure enough, there stood Candi Crowley in the crowd, complaining about how dirty it was (due to the confetti) and she had a stunned, pissed off look on her face.

I'll be happy to join in any effort to maintain that stunned, pissed off look on Candi Crowley's face. :D

[Tight_rope]

51. I'm with you!

[Gregorian]

53. I haven't watched a single commercial newscast in 20 years.

It was obvious almost immediately after Reagan was in office, that something had happened. Only now do I know what it was.

[Aftershock]

54. I boycotted them yesterday.

And I sent them a nasty email.

This DUer will never watch CNN news ever again. :grr:

[demgrrrll]

55. No problem here. n/t.

.

[quinnox]

57. CNN finds new low, and beats Fox

CNN should be ashamed of themselves!

[Pallas180]

58. They only care if you write their sponsors - hit the pocketbook n/t

.

[vetwife]

61. it looked like someone liked off the stripes from Candy's candy

She really looked whipped after Sen. Kerry's speech !

[LunaC]

62. I'm ahead of you on this one

This was my farewell speech earlier in the week.........


Goodbye, CNN......

There was a time when you reported the news according to basic journalistic principles....."Just the facts, ma'am. Just the facts."

Now, however, your newscasters intentionally shade and shape their semantics towards a right-wing bias that smacks of organized Conservative propaganda. Blitzer, Woodruff and Crowley are the most blatant, egregious and obnoxious examples of this practice.

That you allow the White House to influence your reporting (ala the Letterman fiasco) is simply unprofessional, unamerican and unacceptable.

My days of enduring skewed and distorted news are over! I can no longer - in good conscience - support you as a viewer and am changing the channel to the news agencies that still maintain honesty, integrity and non-bias in their reporting.

Goodbye, CNN. Goodbye!

[Robeson]

70. Quit watching them a long time ago.....

....when they started deciding it was more important to talk about what dress Nicole Kidman would be wearing to her latest opening, than reporting the news.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

67. We all buy 5 shares of stock a piece and do a hostile takeover.

We can ask Ted Turner to go in with us. If you own stock you can vote on the board of directors.

[ParisFrance]

71. I don't know if I can give up Crossfire and Lou Dobbs is actualy liberal

[Pallas180]

73. Yup Dobbs is the only one worth watching. Write the Sponsors-remove

Blitzer...He has been so blatant in his bias durig this convention
it's been unbelievable.

I stopped watching and turned to Lehrer and C Span

[thebigidea]

76. what? Where the hell did you get the impression that Dobbs is liberal?

He's a paleocon type with immigration obsessions.

[carpetbagger]

78. Probably by watching too much CNN.

If you watch enough Crowley, Woodruff, Blitzer, and the rest of their "reporters", he looks liberal.

[LiberalManiacfromOC]

72. Do it!

C-Span is so much better!

[Th1onein]

77. I've never watched them anyway.

eom

[Scorpious_Maximus]

81. email sent

:kick:

[Beam Me Up]

82. I stopped watching ALL television YEARS ago. CHENEY YOU MADISON AVE!

and your electronic corporate terrorism. I do not BUY your reality! I don't miss the news. I don't miss the idiotic talking heads -- who have proved themselves ALL to be utter FOOLS -- I do not miss the commercials -- I do not miss the entertainment or sports programs -- I am completely UNHOOKED from that social psychic driver forever!

[Zorra]

83. I don't watch TV, because it is a right wing mind control device, but

by all means, please, please boycott CNN.
:headbang:

[JDPriestly]

84. I've been boycotting TV news since shortly after the 2000 selection.

It's the only way to go if you want to remain sane. The only problem is I don't know what advertisers to write about my boycott. Oh, by the way, I've spent less money since I started boycotting TV. There something about watching TV that makes you want to spend money.

[Zorra]

85. Yep.

TV turns many people into docile, ignorant consumers.

A right wing mind control device.

[jackstraw45]

87. Kick...PLEASE don't watch CNN

Do us ALL a favor and forget they exist.

They AREN'T a news channel anyhow.

[newyawker99]

89. I have watched Cable News in a long time.

I am not even tempted to watch it.

[rucky]

90. No Problem n/t
