Left-wingers Target FNC Advertisers

Ah to be a liberal, to proclaim my tolerance and open-mindedness with a few tacky bumperstickers and then turn around and try to silence any type of political divergence:

Liberal activists are stepping up their campaign against Fox News Channel by pressuring advertisers not to patronize the network.

MoveOn.org, the Campaign for America's Future and liberal blogs like DailyKos.com are asking thousands of supporters to monitor who is advertising on the network. Once a database is gathered, an organized phone-calling campaign will begin, said Jim Gilliam, vice president of media strategy for Brave New Films, a company that has made anti-Fox videos.

The groups have successfully pressured Democratic presidential candidates not to appear at any debate sponsored by Fox, and are also trying to get Home Depot Inc. to stop advertising there.

At least 5,000 people nationwide have signed up to compile logs on who is running commercials on Fox, Gilliam said. The groups want to first concentrate on businesses running local ads, as opposed to national commercials.

"It's a lot more effective for Sam's Diner to get calls from 10 people in his town than going to the consumer complaint department of some pharmaceutical company," Gilliam said.

Some of videos produced by Gilliam's company compile statements made by Fox anchors and guests that the activists consider misleading, such as those that question global warming.

Effective

 Advertisers want to shy away from controversy.  However Murdoch can sell packages that include plays on Fox network, Fox Business and Fox News Channel to larger advertisers.

Of course only a few kooks will actually boycott anyone. But that one stop many advertisers from cringing in fear. 

Murdoch should ban the cowards from the highly rated Fox network shows and from Super Bowl and World Series advertising. 

He can also have Fox News report on the "List of Cowards".

 

  He can also have Fox

 

He can also have Fox News report on the "List of Cowards". - That would be excellent turnabout. It would also show the chicken-hearted advertisers where their bread is buttered. FOX should clearly and unequivocally show their viewers those advertisers who cave in to these radical lefties, exactly where the pressure for them to cease advertising on FOX is coming from, and display the names of their companies and the names of those responsible for caving (CEOs, Ad Execs, etc.) in bold print on the screen. Those few people who would stop patronizing a business because they advertise on FOX probably aren't needed as customers anyway. But the huge demographic who watch FOX might make a little more dent in the coward company's revenue when they find out about this despicable scheme and who bowed to such pressure.

 

The Closed Mind Erects Strong Barriers

How about boycotting an advertiser's stock

FOX should also recommend boycotting an advertiser's stock.  I'd be willing to move my money from an anti-FOX company to a pro-FOX company.  I know how many people watch FOX as compared to their competition.

}}}----> FOX stocks

You'll notice FOX, unlike Maria Bartiromo, will not promote a stock without another view pointing out the downside.

Disagree

I don't think your idea would be very productive Monte. Fox would just be propagating the problem. Just post the cowards and let the viewers decide if they want to continue to patronize the companies. See how fast they begin to tell the lefties to piss off when they start to feel it in their pockets... 

The Closed Mind Erects Strong Barriers

Well this is the utmost in

Well this is the utmost in another losing idea of looney leftists...

The fools all.

More so the chicken-shite candidates on the left who bowed to these idiots at the expense of their own campaigns and television coverage with the most in viewing audience for their leftist views.

Markos and all their ilk are still smarting over the power of BOR/JetBlue IMHO.

...for me this is just too delicious.

If the repub's have any brains and strategy for the debates they will use only FOX....

I saw this link today about CNN/Youtube debate with the upcoming repub. one scheduled on Sept. 17th...just two nit-wits signed on so far...be smart if it stayed that way.

LMAO 

bt, the left uses boycotts

bt, the left uses boycotts all the time (not that there's anything wrong with that, LOL). They got Dr. Laura off TV by causing her to lose advertisers, and they are proud of that; they threatened to go after Sean Hannity next. But notice that when anyone suggests a boycott against any of their own, they cry "Censorship!!!" You know darn well that's what would have happened if Fox had decided on their own, for whatever reason, to NOT carry the debate.

Censorship is the cry

Censorship is the cry always used by anyone when a boycott is launched against a show or network. 

 I am not an advocate of

 I am not an advocate of censorship in any way shape or form, or of attacks on free market advertising, but you know the saying, maybe it's time to "fight fire with fire", or " dont' bring a knife to a gun fight".

The last time I checked FNC had way more veiwership than PMSNBC, The Communist News Network, or any other Liberally biased broadcast news mediums.

Just another example of the Lib moonbats not wanting any message to get out to the public but thier own, and the knowledge that thier coveted fairness doctrine will not police television.

Just goes to show these people do not buy into thier own arrogance in believing they have an "overwhelming majority", or a "mandate" for anything, concerning the voters in the United States, therefore the few mediums that draw on Conservatives must be shutdown.

Talk radio's, and FNC's millions upon millions of listeners, and watchers, befuddle, and mystify the Lib's, who do not understand that the general public has grown tired of the outright biased, doom, and gloom, the hate, and the blatant hypocrisy of the far left.

I my opinion FNC isn't a right leaning network anyway. It has it's  fairshare of Liberal pundits, such as Alan Colmes, and Jerry Rivers. In the opinion of Liberals, any medium that's in the middle, and not leaning far far left like all of the other mediums, is far right.

Boycotting is NOT censorship. It's the pressure of the free market. If a business antagonizes its customers and they decide to shop elsewhere, that's their choice. Censorship is when the government says you can't say or write or publish something, and follows up with penalties.

True, but it's also a

True, but it's also a group's organized pressure of the free market to do what they wish the government would do for them, no?

Yes but it is still a free market

True, but it's also a group's organized pressure of the free market to do what they wish the government would do for them, no? -balboa

Yes but it is still a free market, and that's the difference. If someone doesn't want to shop at WalMart because they don't agree with their policies or their politics, no one can force them to. And when you say "what they wish the government would do for them" remember that "the people" boycotting cannot do anything with force of law; the government can. That's what censorship entails.

People don't laugh at these

People don't laugh at these kids, they are a threat. They have networks of email distribution rings between all the organized groups they have put together.

The right side of the issue doesn't have the beginings of the networks they have created.

If I were able to post a social network diagram of how all this melds together to tie in whole bunches of left wing causes and where they get their marching orders from it would not present big surprises, but we on the right don't have any thing like it to counter what they are doing.

It is a major reason they have a power lock on the dem party today and are convincing them to pull a lot of the antics we see today.

If the right doesn't form something similar, they will be at a disadvantage.

 

control

People don't laugh at these kids, they are a threat. They have networks
of email distribution rings between all the organized groups they have

That is the difference between the right and left, the right believes market forces (whatever the market, ideas, goods, etc.) will control what people want/need, the left believes 'it' needs to decide what the people want using propaganda, dirty tricks and disinformation to manipulate the market. Since the right believes in free will and grassroots and the left believes in control, the left already has a base set up to control the market while the right gets blindsided.

The right just believes people are inherently good, and that belief is wrong.

Guess I'm a cynic.

I don't support our liberals or their mission.

Bill O'Reilly and  Michelle Malkin are either "left" (since they both tried to "control what people want using[..] dirty tricks" regarding JetBlue and YearlyKos) or your  hypothesiss is wrong

 The difference is ding,

 The difference is ding, The Daily Kos is a leftist political site, FNC is a news channel. When an advertiser chooses such an anti-American, anti-military , un-patriotic, vitriolic venue such as Kos, they are choosing sides, and alienating.

Since FNC airs the un-American politcal lies and deceit of O'Reilly, Malkin, Hannity, etc, it deserves the same censorship that O'Reilly is calling for against YearlyKos.

the right believes market forces (whatever the market, ideas, goods, etc.) will control what people want/need, the left believes 'it' needs to decide what the people want

A minor correction, dftt....the left wants to decide what the people need. One of the reasons many wanted the "fairness doctrine" reinstated was because (I can't remember exactly who said it) talk radio wasn't meeting the "listening needs of all Americans" (emphasis mine.) I didn't even know that I HAD "listening needs." LOL

Ah, here it is, found it. It's from the New CAP Report on The Structural Imbalance of Political Talk Radio

These empirical
findings may not be surprising given general impressions about the
format, but they are stark and raise serious questions about whether
the companies licensed to broadcast over the public airwaves are
serving the listening needs of all Americans. (emphasis mine)


Matt

Matt,

Doesn't the publisher of this site "Brent Bozell" do almost exactly the same thing to tv shows "he says" are indecent?

Here is a look a Brents other site

 

 

Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.

I was wondering who'd be

I was wondering who'd be first to bring that up. I guess you could say that MoveOn is on a pretty strictly political crusade, not a moral one -- but I'm not sure that there's a big difference in principle. I await a nice argument on this point.

I am pretty sure that HomeDepot will tell them to piss up a rope, though -- what viewership would you expect them to advertise to? "Will and Grace"? "The View"?

Home Depot, et al.

They are really going after the local distributors. They went after a local supermarket chain because they did not support amnesty for illegal aliens. The supermarket told them they had a prefect right to shop elsewhere. The big problem is that chain has a division that runs markets that cater strictly to Hispanics and Mexican food staples. I was in one yesterday and it was full of people shopping.

botg

botg,

There are many things I do want my child to see on tv botg, but it is not up to Brent to tell me what I can watch on tv. Indecency and censorship is a political issue. Brent is at least partially responsible for the indecency fines that passed congress last year.

 

Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.

Richard Armour

Wrong shawn

Indecency and censorship are first ethical issues. They become political issues when politicians decide that the best interests of the community are served by "community standards."

Indecency and censorship is a political issue.  That is true but it is more than that, what advertisers fund to inflict on my children is a personal issue and a moral issue. 

Support our Troops   

Then you can email or send

Then you can email or send a letter to the people that make the show. Once Brent list the names and address of the sponsors of the show, he is basically asking for a boycott. Which is exactly what liberals are doing with FOX news. I have said this a million times. I can't stand Rush Limbaugh, but I will crawl on broken glass for his right to be on the air.

Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.

How so? Brent is trying to convince advertisers not to support shows he does not to be on the air. The Liberals don't want advertisers to support who they deem unfair to Dems.

 Same sports complex, different ballpark Shawn. The advertising lists Brent compiled on the other site have to due with the advertisements on sexually explicit, or violent programming. Not once in Brents post on parentstv did I see where he called for a boycott against advertisers, it was more along the lines of shedding light on who is advertising where, and then allowing the viewer to make his or her own deduction.

Here is one . Brent is asking for a boycott and it is not even on indecency. It is on tv mini series with politcal overtones.

Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.

Richard Armour

Political overtones? Pleeese!!!!

Actually the mini series that calumnited the Reagans was obscene. I would not have that happen to Clinton. It was a political smear job by all those involved. All bad history should be avoided.

Agreed Dagda, Conservatives found this a Liberal smear job on Reagan, just like Liberals find FOX news smearing anything Democratic. So isn't this a double standard?

A news network and tv station are different"agreed" the fact that 2 groups of people want to boycott something they do not agree with is exactly the same.

everyone should work at practicing what they preach, we all fail at times.  Actually i think if anyone wants to call for boycotts go ahead.  The problem is that the same companies who advertise on Fox advertise on ABC, NBC, CBS so maybe we can all stop consuming?  (And an equal boycott to FOX would be one to ABC, NBC, CBS)

Shawn you say you would not let a smear job like the one in "The Reagans"  happen to Clinton, but what about when Clinton, and the Clintonistas pressured ABC in the 11th hour, and had critical footage pulled from Path to 9/11, that they deemed unfavorable to his legacy?

Richard Armour

It's the same thing

It's the same thing conservatives tell people to do, but there's outrage on this site because this boycott is targeted at precious FNC. That's all. 

Eventually it's going to be up to advertisers, and which boycott proves effective, or which ones BOR suggests.

Liberal "activists" = liberal "kooks."

The groups have successfully pressured Democratic presidential candidates not to appear at any debate sponsored by Fox, and are also trying to get Home Depot Inc. to stop advertising there.

Well, spineless democrat presidential candidates caving in to the lib kooks is one thing, but I doubt these tactics will see much success among most of Fox's advertisers, as the network's ratings are just too high. Advertisers want to get their products in front of affluent and successful people, who are far more likely to purchase them than marginally-employed lib kooks.

Besides, if Home Depot wimps out to these idiots and ceases advertising on Fox, and even though there are five of their stores within ten miles of where I am sitting, I'll just become a loyal Lowe's customer.

The lib kooks here in Atlanta have been employing this same tactic to try and get Neal Boortz thrown off the air for nearly two decades now. It has pretty much backfired on them every time.

This attempt by the "tolerant" left to stifle opposing viewpoints would give the republicans a primo campaign issue in the upcoming election, but something tells me they are just too spineless to use it.

Too bad.

Help Fred defeat everybody.

Little Green Footballs has

Little Green Footballs has an interesting sidelight to this story-apparently DailyKAOS is claiming credit for Lowe's pulling its ads from O'Reilly's show, but it turns out Lowes bailed on O'Reilly last winter.

This boycott scheme will probably backfire on the Dems. Remember when a conservative housewife from Michigan named Terry Rakolta tried to organize a Fox boycott because she was offended by "Al Bundy"? The show got tons of free publicity, and the show's producers for the rest of the show's run sent Terry a fruit basket at Christmas with a thank-you note!

Stranger than truth, Terry's husband John is now the Treasurer for Mitt Romney's campaign. Her sister Ronna used to be married to one of Mitt's brothers.

Hey Del... Now that is

Urbane legends

According to the definitive history of Married w/Children, Terry did not get a fruit basket. She complained that they should have sent her one.

Do not cavalierly dismiss their "work."

  

They are all part of a group of Socialist or worse, Communist organizations, whose agenda, among many, is to silence the opposition.  Remember Goal #20 & 21 of the Communist Goals, as stated in the congressional Record in 1963:

20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.

21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.

We we sit here complaining about what they do, they are actually succeeding in completing their agendas. 

 

They live! They live!

Communists and socialists did not suddenly disappear with the fall of the Berlin Wall. They are still among us spouting the party line. I am concerned about where some of their funding is coming from.

George Soros is one good start for a name.

Darn right they didn't

Darn right they didn't disappear.  They simply went underground, and I'm covinced they have sinced infiltrated virtually every organization in the US, including the DOD, State Dept, Ag. Dept, CIA, FBI - all of them.

I used to have a bookmark of all of the "foundations" that are left supply side or worse, but ca't find it now.   It was amazing, including those with "patriotic" type sounding names.  BOR has mentioned a few on The Factor.

Tip-off is the name

The more patriotic the name to more reason to be suspect of the organization. The Communists were/are famous for using patriotic names for their organizations. It is all for the great Motherland.

Do not underestimate Soros

You are underestimating Soros. Please remember that he got his butt kicked in the dot com bubble. After that little implosion he fired a few of his managers and went back to what he thinks he does best - trading currencies:

On multiple occasions he stated that he is short USD and he advocated continuing to short USD in every interview/street ambush with him done by CNBC. Other than a few lucky short term currency bets, betting on currencies means betting on a significant change in economic policies. With the enormous leverage one can obtain on a currency market, he has no issue spending money to fund organization whose policies will negatively affect US economy because that would send the dollar lower allowing him not only to recover all the money he spent funding MoveOn and Co but make enormous amount of money form his currency bets.

It is a very clever plot.

Remember Rush Limbaugh & Orange Juice

Liberals mounted a 'boycott' on orange juice for similar reasons back in the 90s. Rush just smiled and suggested that his listeners go down to the supermarket where the 4-5 liberal loonies had gathered to stage their protest, and buy all the orange juice the store had in stock.

A grand time was had by all - except the protestors. Listeners went in droves and enjoyed cool, refreshing glasses of OJ, preparing and drinking it right in front of them until the protestors stormed away in disgust.

That's the best thing we can do to these loons and their stalinist tactics - use the new media and free market economics to shove it right down their geeky throats.

Whatever they protest or 'boycott', we should rally to support these products. Chances are, it'll be on stuff that we'd normally use and buy anyway - so why not use the liberal loonies furious opposition as an added incentive to do what we normally do anyway - fuel the american economy?

The more they try to tighten their grip, the more the people of this country will slip through their fingers...

Drink OJ, Drink!

I remember that one.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go purchase the goods and services being advertised on Fox News! ;-)

Fred Thompson and Ann Coulter walk into a bar. The bar is instantly destroyed because that much awesome cannot be contained in one building.

  It just so happens I'm

  It just so happens I'm on my way to Home Depot now.  When I get there I bet I see a lot more pick-up trucks than I do those silly little hybrids.  

   It's quite obvious that the left knows their arguments are weak and unconvincing.  So they are doing what leftists have always had to do, shut down alternative viewpoints. 

  The reason leftists always lose the debate is because every time their ideas are implemented they fail.  No country tried harder than China to make socialism and collectivism work.  Millions died.  The country was mired in poverty.  Only after market reforms and the influx of capitalism coupled with competition has China emerged into the modern world.  Socialism couldn't work there because with such a large population there wasn't enough wealth for the government to seize and redistribute. By making everyone equally poor the economy came to a virtual halt.

One Thing to Keep in Mind

 One thing to keep in mind, as you read about censorship attempts, from the left, the Nazi's were socialists not conservatives.  If you can't compete, in the battle of ideas, your only choice is to stifle the opposing views. 

It's about time that outfits like CNN, MSNBC, and the rest of the alphabets realize that, should this group be successful against FOX, they could be next, should they say something they don't agree with.

The Dem Presidential Candidates have already shown what they're made of, I certainly hope these fascists aren't successful in this endeavor.  Since they got the Dems to bail on a FOX debate, this group seems to be really full of themselves.

Never argue with an idiot.  They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

We should just send the FOX

We should just send the FOX advertisers a copy of the "Screw them" comment made by the Daily Kos founder and ask do they really want to cave in to the demands of a jerk like that.

Use Stalinist contacts to congrat Fox advertisiers

Here's what to do...

I've just visited the Stalinist's site and the comments section is full of conservatives thanking them for providing all the contact details of Fox News advertisors.

It must be driving the moonbats even battier, because conservatives are saying they are using the info to thank the advertiser for using Fox.

Black Helicopter Theory

I don't believe we should dismiss these efforts either, even if some of them go no where.  They need only succeed once for their agenda to be advanced (Dr. Laura).  However, there seems to be an overarching theme of money in the libs strategy.  Just as they want to deny money to Fox or any other level headed business, they also want to direct viewership to liberal supporting businesses.  A good example of this is CNN's pushing of Youtube.  Google owns Youtube, and we know anecdotally that Google tends to support the liberal agenda. Again on the flip side, the Dem candidates boycotted the Fox sponsored Debates, I contend this was not simply a petty partisan issue but a deliberate attempt to deny the financial benefit of viewership to Fox and by extension financially benefit the liberal MSM.

Also consider that liberal investments are smarting from the decrease in viewership and circulation in the MSM businesses.  Any increase in viewership for Fox News, New York Post, and conservative news websites is a decrease for them in their view (zero-sum thinking). 

Consider also an interesting case in point with the hype over bottled water.  Who stands to financially benefit with the new craze by libs by shunning bottled water?  Filtered water... of which PUR by P&G a dominant player in this business.  BTW- The Clinton Foundation endores PUR and is supporting the UN agency UNICEF purchasing the PUR water treatment system (at cost).  I submit that just like Al Gore profiting from the carbon credit scam, liberals are also profiting or financially benefiting in some manner.

 Given the attempts to deny non liberal news outlets any share in the public's eye, it behooves all Repub and Conservatives to deny any further debates that involve their candidates on any liberal MSM outlet.  We don't NEED them to reach the public, so why give them the financial benefit or even the legitamcy?
