So if ABC can't fire Robertson then we need to boycott ABC |
|
It's pretty simple - ABC won't touch them because they said there's a clause in the contract that says they cannot drop the 700 club from ABC family without Robertson's permission.
So it's simple - I, LynneSin will no longer watch ABC and if there are sponsers for ABC shows then I will do all I can to boycott them.
This includes such popular shows as Desparate Housewives, Lost, and that Dancing show.
:D

2. Just a warning: I may have periods of weakness during MN Football |
|
Other than that, the boycott should be easy considering the shit they run on that network.

That's all they understand - their wallets.

7. Does that include downloading shows? |
|
Because there is no way I'm giving up Lost. I figure downloading Lost would be a good way of sticking it to them.

16. If Pat whipped it out on TV and let his lady friend have a go |
|
would ABC still need his permission to cancel his shit show?
Just asking.

17. I was chatting to some highly conservative chums here in England |
|
I mentioned what Patty had said - all of them are conservative politically and religiously b.t.w. - their immediate reaction was "they're getting just like the Taliban"; looks like this one was too strong even for parts of the "anglosphere".

18. they wont notice a difference from me |
|
I never watch Awful Boring Crap network anyway. That slimy scumbag Robertson has opened his foul mouth for the last time. In a way he's doing good for us. He's showing the world what American Conservative Christians are truly like. They make the Taliban look like the Boy Scouts.

All of their programming is stupid, mindless crap. I'm missing "According to Jim". Boo fucking hoo.
