I will watch cable news,I will check out Drudge. When someone posts another odious Limbaugh comment,I will check it out. Evil grows in the dark. I feel it is a duty to monitor what these monsters are trying to do.

1. When you watch whore news on TV
you play the game by delivering yourself not only to the propeaganda parading as news, but also to the real point of the program, the commercials.

When you click on Drudge, you toss him a nickel every time, via his advertisers.

Starve the beast. We already know what they're doing. We don't have to help them.

2. I read sludge from time to time
And I occasionally peek at the RW cable news channels (not much since they are repetitive and have very little actual news)

But I draw the line at listening to Limbaugh and Hannity. I can't stand more than about 3 minutes of either of them before I want to throw the radio out the car window. The idiocy and lies on those shows are unbearable.

If there is a salient point to contest, I might read a transcript, but no Excrement in Broadcasting for me, thanks.
