Well, I, for one, have had it. My entire retirement account is invested with TDAmeritrade. We initiated moving the whole account to someone else today. Our financial adviser thought we were kidding. We aren’t. And I was about to sign up to have my computers backed up on Carbonite.com, but instead sent them an email explaining why I’m not going to do it. The show put on by our Republican Congressmen, by Fox News, by Talk Radio, and by the Wall Street Journal has been absolutely shameful. I can’t make it stop, but I can sure stop supporting the forces that have financed their misbehaving so badly. In the scope of things, I can’t do much personal damage, but at least I can do something. I hope you and every right-thinking American joins the boycott. Fox News is a cancer on our land…

| I was about to sign up to have my data backed up on Carbonite.com, but then I checked and found that you adverstise on Fox News [and particularly with Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity]. Fox News does not broadcast news, it broadcasts Republican propaganda, lies, hatred, and incitement to violence – including violence against American citizens, Democratic leaders, and President Obama. And the worst offenders are Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity, whose shows are broadcast in prime time to large audiences. Your advertising dollars are helping Fox News poison the minds of Americans and destroy our democracy. If you decide to move your advertisements from Fox News, please let me know so I can feel comfortable using your backup service. |
Correction: Sean Hannity endorses Mozy, a different backup service. Not Carbonite.
