Foxattacks.com ...
Fox is not a credible news outlet and needs to be stopped. Foxattacks.com will give you the information and tools you need to hit fox where it hurts.

Here's how you can get local businesses to stop advertising on Fox News Channel... and hit Fox where it hurts: in their pocketbook.

STEP 1. Watch the Fox News Channel.

STEP 2. Identify local businesses that are advertising on the Fox News Channel and enter their contact information into our database so that other people will be able to contact these advertisers too.

STEP 3. Call and/or Write to these local businesses and (politely) ask them to stop advertising on Fox until Fox stops acting as a mouthpiece for the Republican Party



The current video presents the erroneous and slanted stories Fox recently ran about Barack Obama. In response, Obama refused to appear on Fox. Watch the video, then follow Obama's lead and... Do Something

link to the site and video...........

3. How do you get to step 3?
I see a link where I can enter an advertiser, but I can't find a link to known advertisers within my zip.

5. From what I understand, you first have to
do....

STEP 1. Watch the Fox News Channel.....this is the most difficult step

STEP 2. Identify local businesses that are advertising on the Fox News Channel and enter their contact information into our database so that other people will be able to contact these advertisers too

and then move to Step 3.

6. Nooooooooooo nooooooooooo nooooooo I can't
I absolutely can't do step 1. I just can't. I'd pop a blood vessel. But I had really high hopes that there would be others in the 'hood who would be willing to "take one for the team" so to speak. I'd be happy to write letters, but forced watching is cruel.

10. lol............ I understand, step one is extremely difficult
The approach I'm going to take is to channel surf and then mute the sound before clicking on faux. If it's an ad, I'll take notes, if not I'm out of there.

Good luck in this most difficult endeavor!!!
