Should the democrats boycott Fox News again?

[cstanleytech]

I am leaning towards yes as the answer, for awhile there it looked like they might have caved and were beginning to behave like a something other than the muppet theater for the republican party but now......now they seem to be doing the same thing they did Kerry.
So, should they boycott, yes or no?

[oldtime dfl_er]

1. well, since I haven't watched FAUX since 2003

I would have to say yes.

[Glorfindel]

2. Yes, of course

Why feed the beast that bites you?

[Kutjara]

3. Do Democrats watch Faux Noise?

If so, why? Masochism?

[jtrockville]

4. Absolutely.

[Frustratedlady]

5. Gee, I never un-cotted them. I cannot take more than a minute or I become nauseous.

Let me know if it ever changes to an actual news center.

[polichick]

8. Same here!

[Enthusiast]

6. Fox and ABC

And CBS and CNN if they don't change their slanted coverage.

[AlinPA]

Sorry, duped and cleared. nt

[AlinPA]

7. Yes. Don't watch that republican propaganda. Democrats should not help them by

appearing for "interviews". All it does is give them the chance to claim "fair and balanced" because "even Democrats appear here". If all they have are republicans on there, squawking the right wing hatred and stupidity people can see how "fair" they are and make fun of them the way Jon Stewart does. Let's face it- 99% of their zombie viewers would never vote Democratic or change to Democratic.

9. Did we ever stop?

[Bobbieo]

12. The answer is definitely " YES"!!! It's like shopping at WalMart if you hate the place.

You are supporting them.

[Kittycat]

25. Well, just like walmart - Faux has been deprogrammed from my tv list.

And we never step in to hell-mart. It's their business practices I hate - I'm sure I'd hate their products too, but not shopping there keeps me from being impacted by them.

[Tutonic]

10. Too Late, they are the official news sponsor for the 2008

Democratic Convention in Denver. No joke. How you like my party now?

[Spock_is_Skeptical]

11. obvious answer is obvious

[ben_meyers]

13. Absolutely, Democrats should only preach to the choir and those

already converted. Screw the rest of them!

[MikeE]

14. Yeah, I never stopped, just added ABC to the list

I haven't watched them in forever, and have stopped watching ABC since that sorry excuse for a debate.

[HughMoran]

15. There are Democrats that aren't boycotting Faux "News"?

News to me :D

[deacon]

16. Absolutely. They don't need them. n/t

[MiniMandaRuth]

17. absolutely yes

fox and abc - enemies of the Dems, enemies of the people. Any dem that appears on either of these two networks deserves what they get, and they will get it.

[NightWatcher]

18. you mean you watch that channel? I dont have it programmed on my tv

and as of next month all my cable is going bye bye

[backscatter712]

19. I never stopped boycotting them.

I absolutely refuse to watch their trash!

[sam sarrha]

20. i rempved them years ago fron the remote, never quit boycoting them

[sourmilk]

21. "Again?" How about "still?"

I never watch those assholes, Or the CNN assholes, or the ABC/NBC/CBS assholes, either, or that matter. I sometimes watch the CTV/CBC/Global/BBC assholes, but really - I much prefer to read.

[cstanleytech]

22. I wish they had but *shrug*

they gambled, at first it was ok but now they need to reinstitute the ban, no speeches, press meetings or anything with any Fox News people as well as the entire News Corp company and its papers, maybe they will learn to be respectful and actually "Fair and Balanced" then, of course I will probably hit the powerball lottery before Fox News truly being "Fair and Balanced" happens.

[JackRiddler]

23. Of course, but it's a poor replacement for blocking the Bush agenda...

Which they are fully able to do.

[Cleita]

24. Again? I have been boycotting them since selection 2000. n/t

[Hekate]

26. Always. nt

[Feron]

27. I can't stand cable news.

Of course news is a misnomer since the bulk of their programming is about crap like the World's Largest Ball of Twine, a pie eating contest, celebrity gossip, the sensational court case du jour, or something equally inane. I remember one time when all three cable news channels had wall to wall coverage of a dog stuck on a patch of ice in one of the Great Lakes.

Fox News is the most tabloid of them all, but the others aren't far behind. If I want news I'll grab it online.

So I boycott Faux and the rest of them simply to save myself aggravation.

[lpbk2713]

28. Why give them credibility?

Before you know it, people might think Faux is something like a real news organization.
