stop supporting liars?
« on: April 20, 2009, 03:43:03 PM »
Would it do any good to boycott the news networks that have distain for the truth?
cnn, nbc, abc etc.
I ask this from the standpoint that I have not watched the news since obama was handed the head puppet job. I dont miss it at all.
If I were to go back to watching the news it would be world net daily or some such. I know very little about this news organizations WND. Maybe others can comment on it. 
Every time we watch the news we support the networks it is on. The one thing they cannot live with, is low veiwer ratings.
I am going to work with my family, coworkers and friends to stop if possible, watching this gang of liars that have done more to distroy this nation than any thing. We can work fourms that we are members of and maybe just maybe we can get a reaction from them.
This could be a tea party against the lieing news networks.
What do you think? Interested?

Our nation was founded on freedom, including freedom of the press and freedom of speech. 

Could you be more specific about which network you believe is spreading lies and what some of these lies are?  Bill Clinton lied and so did Martha Stewart.  I think their lies were well documented on TV.

 the reported news is colored by the agenda of the reporter..
 as in if your employer doesn t believe in right to carry arms.. your reporting will be as if thats is fact and it will color how the reporter reports an incident..
  not only news but the entertainment industry.. they have successfully put a negative taint on gun ownership thru using our movie an entertainment..
 this is thier right .. we just have to recognize it when it appears starring our favorite stars..gun ownership is bad is thier message.. glad the minute men didn t
take that position.. slim :)

Nobody said anything about hindering anyone's freedom!

 We also have the freedom not to watch what we dont like

I will exercise my freedom of speech  by saying that the mainstream Media is leftist, or at least operated by leftist which makes it's credability nil. Did you see the ridiculous coverage of the Tea Party rallies! I wont watch that sort of rubbish. When rodney king got the hell beat out of him and his friends protested they did not get treated like that by the media. I would ask that they cover a tea party rally the same way,
 show the facts, dont demean people because you dont agree with their message!

The Networks that I will not watch nor support are; cnn,msnbc,cbs,nbc.newyork times, These have shown that they are biased to the left(there may be others). I rarely have seen abc so not sure about them but they are probably not any better. When they do not show the truth they are lying! When they slant the truth they are lying. Frankly I do not like fox either, they say fair and balanced but they lean right. I dont need their cheerleading, I just want the news nothing but!  A valid news story is one that states the facts of an occurrence,(who ,what, when, where) not just the facts that make your argument or an event that makes your point, and ignore all others.

The mainstream media ignored the leftist ties of obama before the election. (a lie by omission)

They ignored the twenty years obama sat in His church and and listened to the anti American rubbish that jeremiah wright spewed. (so that's a lie) Now he is ACTING ON THAT TRAINING/ PREACHING

Now it turns out obama is a leftist, he does not like the America he was elected by, he wants to change the basis of our law. (He said that) The mainstream media never questions anything he does or says, so if they are not lying, they are in collusion with the president in his march to socialism.

They print nothing or show nothing that does not flatter their new messiah!

Has anyone noticed that the Dixie chics seem to have gone away? Then ignoring them has worked!
We just need to ignore the Media that does not legitimately post the news! They will go away!

I dont want to hear just the news I like I want to hear all the news, good bad or ugly!
If the press and the media dont do that I will not support them!

“Owning a handgun doesn’t make you armed any more than owning a guitar makes you a musician.”

"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery."

Charles p, You are right this country was founded on freedom. Freedom of the press is the same as the freedom of Charles p. and that means each has the right to say what they want true or not.
When Charles p slants a story it will usually effect a few people. He does not have the backing of a liberal government and every eletist with their hand in the till. Charles p does not have the resourses to sway an eletorate toward the removeal of freedoms as the press does with its backing and lies.
When this happens good men must act by refusing to support that which will tear down all they believe in.
If you have failed to see the slant toward gun control, socialism, new world order, away from family values, and the many other things that have caused the desentigration of this country and freedoms. It maybe because you watch and believe to much of what they say.
You ask for an example: is obama the messia the networks paint him to be? Does the gun kill people? Do you feel you should give your hard earned money to those that want work?  The media thinks so.

Your right ms, it is a fight between the right and the left. Tea Party's are just bringing it to a head. It's time the right stood up and was counted. How many times's in the last 4 decade's, have the tree huggers,do gooders,political activists, pushed, and pushed, and pushed! Well, time we started to push back. Except we might just push back alittle harder!! gypsyman
