Democrats Must Boycott Fox News
Many have questioned why democratic leaders consent to appear on Fox News in light of Fox's openly conservative bent and unwavering support for President Bush. The response has usually been along the lines that the politicians must use every available outlet to get out their message. While this is understandable, it is no longer sufficient justification now that Fox has dropped whatever remaining pretense they once had of being "Fair & Balanced"

There is no longer any reason for any democrat to appear on "Faux News" and, frankly there is now good reason to ridicule and shame any Democrat, or Independent for that matter, who agrees to appear.
Please contact your representatives and tell them not to make any further appearances on this despicable network. In fact, I would take it a step further and encourage them to discuss the need for Democrats to boycott Fox when making appearances on other networks.
Fox will only get worse if we do nothing. Brit Hume's blatant lie about FDR's intent to privatize Social Security, which exceeded by far any transgression of Dan Rather, has caused zero problems for them. This is because their fan base of mouth breathing war zealots for Jesus have had their already pliable minds molded into an unquestioning receptacles for neocon trash and have never had to deal with opposing views since they simply do not acknowledge them.
