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!

I would love to have a website just about the MSM- give bios on the different reporters - find out what sorority or fraternity they belonged to- where they got their education - etc- ties by marriage or family to businesses- see if they pass the ole snifferoo test ...

I don't know the answers to your questions, except I believe Sinclair's stock price got hammered, not their advertisers; I'm not sure. I apologize for yelling. Sorry.

Anyway, I still think somehow diverting the MSM's viewers is the way to go.
