Liberals Going After Fox Advertisers

NEW YORK (AP) - 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. (these are the same tactics and methods the Bolsheviks used, at the beginning of the Soviet Era. They learned them from Nazi's, from the SA that helped put Hitler in power)
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. (I wonder if those 5000 were given Brown Shirts like the Hitler youth had)
"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. (yeah threats and intimidation always work better on the local level)
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. (yes God forbid if you don't believe the voodoo science of global warming, that alone should get your name placed on a list for "re-education")
Representatives for Fox News Channel, which is owned by News Corp., did not immediately return calls for comment.
Home Depot has not had an unusual number of calls, said spokesman Jerry Shields, and the home improvement chain will not change its advertising strategy. (good for them)
"We're not in the business of censoring media," Shields said. "We need to reach our customer base through all mediums available." (especially the number 1 rated news Chanel)
Groups like the Sierra Club have targeted Home Depot because they believe it's inconsistent for the company to promote environmentally friendly products while advertising on a network that has questioned global warming. (yes you must NEVER question fake science)
The groups seem particularly angry at Fox's Bill O'Reilly, who has done critical reports on left-wing bloggers. On July 16, O'Reilly said the DailyKos.com Web site is "hate of the worst order," and sent a reporter to question JetBlue Airways Corp. CEO Dave Barger about the airline's sponsorship of a gathering run by DailyKos. (O'Reilly is correct Kos is a hate site just read it, the hate speaks for itself)
He'll never ride on JetBlue again, O'Reilly said.
MoveOn.org is campaigning against Fox because it says the network characterizes itself as a fair news network when it consistently favors a conservative point of view, said Adam Green, the organization's spokesman. (Yet they have NO PROBLEM with ABC, CBS, NBC, AND CNN that consistently favor a communist liberal view. Which have even gone as far as putting FAKE documents on the air the week before an election)
"We're not trying to silence anybody," Green said. "Rush Limbaugh has a right to be on the air—he admits his point of view. Fox doesn't." (Yes it does "It's FAIR AND BALANCED)
This is a dangerous game being bank rolled by anti-american George Soros. He is openly organizing thousands of little Bolsheviks to threaten people for exercising their free speech by spending their advertising dollars where they choose. They state it themselves, if you don't believe in what they believe and how they believe it, YOU need to be THREATENED! Charges of HARASSMENT should be filed against ALL 3 of the groups listed in the first paragraph of this article the second after the first phone calls are received.
