5. I bought one as a Christmas present for a friend whose guests |
|
keep turning it on, even though they've been told it's a "Fox-free" house.
They're here in-laws so she sort of puts up with them.
Anyway, I figure she'll get a kick out of it and may even use it.

6. Now if they have a remote that can jam Fox signals |
|
on other TV's where you are subjected to them, like hospital and car repair waiting rooms, I would be ecstatic.

10. Why waste your time,they are not going to go away- |
|
Just don't watch it. I cannot imagine putting this amount of energy into something as trivial as this.
My cable package has several channels that I wouldn't watch---I just ignore them.
If no one watches they will disappear.

14. I've got a best solution for you |
|
TURN OFF the TV...UNPLUG it...leave it on sidewalk for the trash truck...
You can get all the news from internet.

All you have to do is don't pay for it.

17. Fox still will get its share of your cable TV bill... |
|
... and isn't that all they care about? I don't subscribe to cable TV or to satellite TV because I choose not to contribute financially to Rupert Murdoch's media empire. The only way I would subscribe is if they would sell me a subscription lineup that did NOT include Fox or Fox News. Because otherwise, even if you don't watch, they still get a cut of the money you pay when you pay your bill.
