Not a problem. TV is literally a wast of time. I like reading hence FR etc. It’s quieter, no commercials. The MSM TV coverage? Fail.

Another worthless boycott attempt.

Brit Hume was the last bastion of real and legitimate news on FNC. He was the last link I had to FNC.

I never understood why anyone really thought Fox News gave conservatives a fair shot. I used to watch it every now and then and thought it sounded like a clone of the other networks.

I quit watching it years ago and haven't missed it a bit.

People should call Hannity at 3pm on his radio and ask him how he fails about the smear and hit job that his network is attempting to do on Sarah, and IS HE going to stand up and defend her against his own news network???

"For one week beginning at 3:00 PM today"

I don't think it works that way - they don't have a "meter" to tell them how many people are tuning in at any given time.

It's done with "ratings", i.e. surveys...i.e. polls...and we all know how reliable they are.

There are only certain times during the year (excepting internal polls, which are naturally skewed) when they are taken.

The only thing that will affect them immediately is emails and letters. Now if you really want to get their attention, tell them what you think about them, and then "cc" CNN, ABC, CBS, and NBC/MS-NBC.

They don't want their competition knowing that their "fan base" is upset...especially right now.

And while your at it, please tell O'Riley, Sean, and the rest to let their damn guests finish answering the questions they ask, and stop talking over each other. This doesn't work with human hearing with all the voices coming from the same source...you can't single out a voice by direction like you can in a crowded noisy room...it turns into gibberish. That's usually when I change the station and watch the Game Show Network.

I had given up on television long ago, except to use it to watch DVD’s of my own choosing. We have literally hundreds of channels and there is nothing watchable except for TCM, because that channel shows movies that were made when Americans were proud and when the future was still bright. I get my news from talk radio and Free Republic and my entertainment from activities more important to the mind and body than TV has to offer. I join in your call for boycott, and go one better, tun off the TV!

I put the Weather Channel on yesterday, and will probably watch it through the Winter.

I agree. I’m tired of their slant towards the left. Its been going on for months. Guess they don’t need us Republican viewers. The only reason I voted Republican this time was because of Sara & not McCain. McCain is just a Moderate Dem. We need to get to get rid of the primaries that determine who are Republican candidate would be like it happened this time.

I agree. Except for Cavuto and Hannity, they are starting to become CNN jr.

I used to watch O'Reilly but after watching him suck up to Obama I tuned him out. I can listen to Hannity on Sirius.

This should be an easy boycott.

Also, I suggest freepers send complaints about Shep Fag to foxnews.com. Also, perhaps some NY Freepers can get photos of Shep and his boyfriend and post it online.
