Is the Left ready to fight the right wing media at its roots?
If we really want to stop the right at its roots, and its roots are in its media - the right wing media - then we must cut down our viewing of Fox - yes all Fox and Rupert Murdoch products.
Let us limit our consumption to a few Fox movies and a handful of Fox shows. I'll only watch my Cowboys games and the Sunday comedies. I'll boycott Fox in general, including their movies.
This will take some research.
What stations are broadcasting Fox and Rush Limbaugh products? Hannity products? If we cut down our listening of those stations, and of Fox, and start a movement, we can make them think twice about filling our airwaves with lies.
And that is my main problem with rightist media. They lie.
And a democracy runs on facts and truth. They destroy our democracy with every lie, every day, every hour.
