Already started.

We bought Fox News a dress, picked them up in a limo and pinned the corsage on them. Now that they are at the dance they don’t even know us.

I’m in. I usually watch Fox News from 3-10 pm. I’ll tune out the next few days.

I’ve been a part of that boycott for going on two years now.

I boycott all TV news. It’s all spoon feed propaganda to make the rats look good.

FOX now SUX bigtime! :-(

Why can’t we have something like a 20min daily FreeRepublic video newscast that we can download and watch?

Even if it is mainly a rewrite of stuff from FOX it would at least be by our own guys and could poke fun when fun poking is due.

A permanent daily download link could be put on the front page.

“What a bunch of turncoats you are. Don’t like what you hear, let’s boycott. Give me a break. You boycott your family members when they don’t agree with you or say something you don’t want to hear? Hey, don’t watch Fox if you don’t like it, but tossing out boycott is petty”

And you? You’re happy with letting the media pick your candidates?

Looks like that ‘turncoat’ fits you well.

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.

Right, because to join together to force change is what, unAmerican. If you don’t want to join, get off the thread.

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???

To: All

Have not been watching Hume for several months, BOR for close to two years. I will still probably watch Hannity, who has carried the water. I stopped watching Fox and Friends long ago.

Someone I have started to like is Greta, but now that the election is over, I will probably watch her less, just because of the types of stories she normally does. Not her. She has been extremely fair to Palin.

I hate them all. Fox was my only hope but they’ve gone over to the darkside. The only show I’ve watched on Fox for the past few months is Fox and Friends. They’re the only true fair and balanced people on that station.
