Can the Media be fixed?

I don't know how else to affect the media than to quite buying the newspapers and not watching their MSM news shows. The media and the libs basically have the dumbed voters believing them, the media failed to vet Obama and did everything they could to undermine anything conservative. The only way to hurt them is to boycott their product. Ratings fail, they fail. Lots of print news is already feeling the pinch of reduced readership and are laying off people who work for them, mostly libs. I don't watch MSM news anymore and don't buy newspapers anymore. So screw'em.
 
I've done it for years...not buying their stuff. But they keep printing it anyway, figured someone in the government is paying them to stay open with my tax dollars.

I've done it for years...not watching their programs. But there are always plenty of sheeple to keep ratings high enough for them. Tired of the "If it bleeds, it leads" TV, and have been for quite sometime.

you know jump,I agree with your assessment.We've had papers here quit publishing and go online only.Unfortunately, I don't believe much of their demise can be blamed on people boycotting because of their views, some maybe, but too many more convenient ways to get the news.I wouldn't listen to CNN,PMSNBC or any of the major news networks either.I wish enough people would also join us to have an effect, but I doubt it.Fox news is wildly successful so many have joined us. But the sad thing is the 62 million who outvoted us do watch them and will continue to do so.I wish there was an answer.If there is I don't know it.

Those people arent' enough to keep the media going if just as big a number of conservative voters that are supporting them now would quit supporting them.

So youre petitioning the abolishment of all news media?

I feel like Im beating my head against the wall when I read some of your responses. Does he say anything of the sort in what his post????? NO. I suuppose, Tommy, you think the mainstream media is unbiased?
 
Well get to beating your head. Heck his first sentence led me to my question.

"I don't know how else to affect the media than to quite buying the newspapers and not watching their MSM news shows."

They are biased. They were also biased for Bush during the Bush/Gore election. Im not denying that fact. Im just not a big supporter of reverting back to the telegraph. That wouldnt be smart. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smiliesmack.gif

No, you fail to pass the reading test. Go to the back of the room.

I guess if you, jump to the conclusion that all media is biased, as it seems you have , then there are still some sources that aren't biased that would escape your definition of all news media. Which should answer your dumb question.

It works for osama obama. Just ask a question that the chosen one doesn't like, or support another candidate, and you are out. The track record proves it. MI VHNTR

Are you actually in the military? I can't really imagine unless you are one of those ' .... rangers' that we hear about. Your Kool aid stand could be a bottle of vodka so you would fit in with your miserable socialist friends.

Also Tommy boy I'll ignore any more of your posts if you promise to ignore mine. You aren't worth the bandwidth.
