Hit 'Em In The Wallet!

Remember when journalists were supposed to be objective?

We’ve all known, for a long time now, that Fox “News” is a propaganda machine for the Republican Party.  It’s worse actually. The horror-show prez of our beleaguered country begins each day not with policy papers or intelligence briefings but by watching the morning distortion and lie fest, Fox & Friends. He live-tweets their fictions and warpage along with praise for the shellacked, alt-reality hosts. Their only actual connection to news? The show is on a station with the word “news” in the title. THIS is where our mentally ill, electoral college installed, hate machine of a preznint gets his “news.”

With Hannity (another chat show imbecile) and other Fox talking heads now actively campaigning  for the Odious Orange Barbarian, the porn star lingerie thin veneer of journalistic integrity has evaporated. Fox News is worse than state-run TV – it is the Republican Party's puppet master.

It’s way past time to boycott the sponsors and advertisers of Fox News. There’s a lot of them. Listed below, courtesy of the site FoxNewsAdvertisers.com, are the top 20 sponsors and advertisers as well as, specifically, their top Medical/Pharma advertisers. Each company is followed by their Twitter handle(s). It may not be easy to stop using all products made/marketed by these companies but, c’mon, let’s give it a good effort for the sake of deceny, truth, justice and democracy and shit!

If I can’t disassociate myself entirely, I’m at least gonna tweet, email and otherwise be a total nuisance (AKA make my voice heard!) to the corporate Powers That Be who make advertising placement decisions.

MAKE SOME NOISE!
