Don't they already boycott the products. What I would love to see is Hillary in a Factor Tshirt.

Heaven forbid there actually be divergent view points on the air. Are you for the "fairness doctrine" too? How do you justify that?

Absolutely Not

No, I would not. Boycotting any product that is advertised on Fox would do nothing, because, how many products that are advertised on Fox are also advertised on ABC, CBS, or NBC?

Fox is just another voice in the sea of voices that are available for your viewing. If you do not like what Fox has to say, then perhaps you need to find another channel? There are certainly enough of them out there. Perhaps you would like MTV? Or would you miss The Simpsons?

So, if you feel you cannot change the channel, would you support the fairness doctrine? That's right, use the force of the federal government to force a privately owned company to do what you want? Be careful what you wish for, you may just get it.

Therefore, No, I would not support a boycott of any product that is advertised on Fox.

No, I find their reporting to be fairly accurate with a conservative bias which I think is good as a balance. Their pundits are up front and honest about their bias and I think that makes for good reporting. While I may not agree with them, I see no reason to boycott a sponsor. Listening to other peoples opinions (even when I disagree) should not be so upsetting.

Maybe...

There is also a grass roots movement to call for a 72 Hour Stay At Home strike to force Congress to IMPEACH Bush and Cheney.

The idea is to just stay home (where you are safe) for 72 Hours...NO BUYING, NO WORKING...NOBODY on the streets.

That will get these criminals attention. It has worked throughout history.

What is this? Another attempt by dems to do what they accuse reps of doing; silence anyone who doesn't agree with them

I don't watch that 24-hour comedy network so haven't a clue who their advertisers are.

I do, however, boycott anything made in China...... Also, California grapes and lettuce and oranges from Florida.

I already do... I have not gone to see ANY Fox movie at the theater for 2 years now...

I NEVER watch Fox News and I support Art Greenwalds films and productions whenever possible:

Something to keep in mind though is that Rupert Murdoch also owns MySpace and TV Guide Channel... they are starting to spin those too...

(he has tried to purchase Yahoo and The Wall Street Journal but those are just pipe dreams for him... he has a reputation of running good media into the ground...)

Yes!  FOX is nothing more than a sensationalism rag in video form.  They have proved to have the least informed viewers according to the polls.  When asked questions on current events most FOX viewers answered incorrectly.

Perhaps they are the least informed because FOX just announces whatever they want.  It does not need to have any resemblance to facts.

Our people are uninformed as it is, we do not need some rag to feed them a bunch of lies from hate-mongers.

Doesn't anyone have a problem with the fact that the man that owns a great majority of our news sources on both Television and in print is not even an American?  Not only is he not American but he makes it perfectly clear that his news sources shall report the news he wants them to report.

Hmmmmmmmmm.... Makes you think, or it should!

No. I am a dem and do not watch Fox News (other than for a good laugh) but I do not see that what they are doing is wrong.
