Your intentions are good, but your energy is misplaced. DO YOUR HOMEWORK FIRST. As Neal Boortz explained on his radio show today, many networks are stuck in long-term contracts with advertisers to whom they sold time years ago at much lower rates than they could get today. THEY WOULD LIKE NOTHING BETTER FOR THOSE OLD ADVERTISERS TO CANCEL THEIR CONTRACTS SO THE TIME COULD BE RESOLD (EASILY, BTW) TO NEW ADVERTISERS AT TODAY'S HIGHER RATES. So you would be doing NOTHING but HELPING the MSM.
It would be FAR BETTER for you to encourage their viewers to get their news elsewhere. THAT WAY, with few viewers, their rates would have to go back down; THAT'S what would hurt their bottom line and make them take notice.

Thanks. This is valuable information. Thanks too for telling me that my intentions are good. That helps when being scolded. I'm not crazy about being told to "do my homework!" I happen to know a great deal, but......alas, like everyone else, just not everything, everywhere, all the time. I'll settle for the intentions bit, but it can't possibly BE that all are "stuck" in longterm contracts. Can't be 100% of them. Didn't the sponsors respond to the pressure from ordinary Americans with the Janet Jackson Super Bowl gaffe?..........and to the Sinclair broadcast situation with "Stolen Honor?" If viewers have no affect upon sponsors EVER, then are we all just sitting ducks?....and lame ones at that? Impotent? Unimportant? We are their market!
