The best way (if there is a way) to force the left wing media into moving to the center is cut off their source of profits.
If the companies who advertise on left wing media, network news, cnn etc received millions of emails, letters saying that their products will not be bought as long as the sponsor they lying left wing media then it may make a difference.
YES! We must do this.
How about a list?
I wouldn’t know where to start.
The preachiest people are people I never wish to associate with.
HBO- Bill Mahr is enogh reason to dumb that POS station
I dont watch left wing TV so I dont know who the advertisers are...
But I am starting to get very suspicious of names like “Progressive” auto insurance AND I was pretty surprised to learn that GEICO means “Government Employees Insurance Companay” (the are advertising it openly now)
Probably a list somewhere which I will try and dig up but the best way is to watch and note the advertisers. I would guess they are pretty consistent.
Anyone who happens to know who some major ones could post them to this thread.
I will try and dig up some information on it.
No, we need to remove the activists from Govt or other positions where they impact policy.
I would go farther and say that not only should the advertisers be boycotted, perhaps not in a “formal” way, but also those of us who support the constitution and freedom actively boycott all the left-wing media outlets including the major networks, the major newspapers that supported Obama and socialism, and all movies with leftist actors in major roles.
If they lose 48% of their audiences and subscribers they can not continue to spout their garbage. The Obamaites support alone will not sustain them!! Is there a web site that lists all the appropriate companies that support this nonsense so we can not buy their products or shop at their stores? I suspect we all know which actor’s movies to avoid - if I never see another George Clooney movie it will be too soon !!!!
YES! Totally agree....
Here is a link to top spending companies but can’t tell who advertise during the news programs. Again I will try and dig up the info.

I hate a lot of these companies anyway.
I refuse to go to the movies for two reasons. Main one is I refuse to give Hollywood any money and two, the movies are crap.
OT, but important, as I agree with hitting the dems in their pocketbooks; also contact your congresscritters (IF Repub) and ask them to ‘splain this:
The RNC and DNC made their Consent Decree 30 years ago, in 1982. The agreement in effect gives a carte blanche to the Democrat Party to commit vote fraud in every voting district across America that has, in the language of the Consent Decree, “a substantial proportion of racial or ethnic populations.”

Contact the RNC and ask THEM to explain it-tell them you’re changing your affiliation to “Independent” if these are the kind of “deals” they’re making.

Money is a great power because, in a free or even semi-free society, it is a frozen form of productive energy. And, therefore, the spending of money is a great responsibility. Contrary to the altruists and the advocates of the so-called “academic freedom”, it is a moral crime to give money to support ideas with which you disagree; it means: ideas which you consider wrong, false, evil. It is a moral crime to give money to support your own destroyers. - “The Sanction of the Victims”, TOF, April 1982.7.)
Cut the cable or satellite totally or downgrade to basic package. get over the air antenna (got my new HD version at the ready.) Buy generic at the grocery or drug store. If the MSM can’t be pushed back against, no conservative candidate will ever be presented as a reasonable alternative.
Boycotting the advertisers is a totally futile effort.
As long as you are paying your cable bill, they will advertise there.
Boycotting cable is more feasible.
Go internet streaming... cancel cable.
Here’s why I rarely ..i mean! rarely....ever go to movies.
The big mouth Lib actors have bloviated so much that I can not get into the character they play in the movies anymore...I just see THEM !
The old “hollywood system” had it right..they kept a tight leash on their stars, so it was all the image of marylin monroe or tony curtis, or whoever..when they were in films, you saw the character....can you imagine “tony curtis”, the hunk now???Bloviating about how gay he is...he never would have made it.
There are plenty of media like the MSM who about 90 percent of time are bias but deny it (that's why for years I've called employees of the MSM skid marks on Journalism's shorts), avoid the products of those sponsors..
other media claim to be "nonpartisan" but are demonstrably not, avoid the products of those sponsors.
GEICO...thanks, Mr. K. I did not know that.
Just stop buying ‘stuff’
(you’ll need the extra money to pay taxes anyways:{ )
If you ‘need’ something buy it from outfits you have researched... not just prices but political donations, etc.
Buy ‘used’ whenever possible. (sub-markets)
