Simple solution to RW talk radio...

[SnoopDog]

This is an assignment...and it will work.

OK, hold you nose, listen to right wing radio in your area, note all advertisers and write a letter.

Dear advertiser, I will never go to your store or buy something you sell because of who you sell advertising to.

Guess what - your letters to your Senator or Congressman - are basically ignored. The advertisers of these bastards - priceless.

You take their money away - they will follow the money trail to the progressives.

God Dammit do it - listen, write down the advertisers, and write them. One sentence - no business from me. These stations will collapsed.

[benburch]

1. Another good solution...

Driving a nail through their COAX feed to the antenna...

[FreedomAngel82]

2. That's what they do to us

[SnoopDog]

3. Its about time we fight fire with fire...

It's only our country..don't you know....

[Touchdown]

4. So it must be legal, because Repubs are never punished...

...for doing it. From money laundering, wiretapping, war justifications, all the way down to vandalism to silence the First Amendment rights, which must be just a suggestion.

[Lolivia]

16. Boycotts are legal

There is no First Amendment violation without government action. Individual citizens are free to choose where they will shop and from whom they will get products.

No one is telling people what they can say - boycotts are just a way of indicating we won't listen.

[Touchdown]

33. Did you miss something?

We were talking about driving nails into coax cable to disrupt radio signals. Again, if Repubs do it to Air America, they will NEVER go to jail.

[Lolivia]

34. I sure did

I thought you were talking about not buying products.

It was late...insomnia...missed the cable thing completely.

I agree with you completely.

[Touchdown]

35. Good morning Sunshine!

:hug:

[CatholicEdHead]

37. Ed Schultz talked about this with them buying out the progressive radio

station down in Phoenix.

[Pryderi]

5. K&R!

[Swamp Rat]

6. How about YOU listen and make us a list?

Write down offensive comments, the name of the offenders, and their advertisers (and email addresses to the appropriate contacts). Then, perhaps, some will write letters, make calls, and complain to store managers, etc.

[SnoopDog]

8. Say what?

This is an assignment.

Listen to Right Wing Radio - you know, your local Rush and, I guess there is some women named Se-ann Hanity, and others, write down the local advertisers, find their address and write to them - no business from me...

Very simple...

[Swamp Rat]

11. Yes, and it is YOUR assignment.

I have more important things to do, like survive, but some of us might be willing to write letters if you are willing to do the listening and organising. It is your idea, so you should, at least, start the work.

[SnoopDog]

14. Hey Bud or Budette..It is just one more thing to do..

to attempt to regain our country. It is an individual thing - in your own local radio market - wherever you live.

Don't take this personally - especially if external forces prevent you from doing it. The most important thing for any individual is to survive. When you have spare time.... your efforts will be appreciated.

[Swamp Rat]

17. That's why I suggest you initiate the research.

It's a great idea, but many of us have too many irons in the fire as it is. Many do not have time to do the data collection, though have the ability to shoot off well-written letters, or make a quick, professional call.

peace from New Orleans

[SnoopDog]

25. Didn't know you were from NO...

I am so embarrassed to be an American somedays, especially when we can't save and help our fellow citizen.

Hope all is well with you...

[cynatnite]

7. I can't...

I just can't do it. I tried with Hannity one time and I became almost physically ill after only a minute of listening. I don't think I would survive an hour.

Someone should make a list or something. I honestly can't stomach rw talk radio.

[Pryderi]

9. Mediamatters.com will condense it for you.

[SnoopDog]

10. No problem, pass the buck... somebody, I'm sure will take up your slack

[buddysmellgood]

12. No no no...just get the list of advertisers. Don't actually listen to the

crap. Just call up the station and speak in a gushing voice. Tell them you want to shop only with their advertisers. Then post the list of fools on the web, write your letters and boycott.

[SnoopDog]

15. My bad for not understanding your post...

What ever is the easiest means...

A local rabid-right talk host was bitching about somebody complaining to the advertisers. It really works..

[upi402]

13. Radio Shack stopped adverts on Rush. They advertised on AAR

http://www.takebackthemedia.com/rushbusted.html

I started shpping at Radio Shack.
In fact, I just got a Cingular contract started because they are the ONLY UNION CELLPHONE COMPANY!
yay!

22. Thanks... so far I have not shopped at those places or bought from them

except AutoZone Inc. When I was fleeing Katrina, I walked barefoot for about a mile to get some much needed anti-freeze at AutoZone. I explained to the AutoZone employees that I needed anti-freeze real bad but would have to fore go dinner if I paid the full price (11 bucks - I was short on cash and couldn't find my credit card). The cashier said he "didn't care"... I will NEVER shop at AutoZone for the rest of my life under ANY circumstance... I'm still too mad to write THAT particular letter. :mad:

(sad to see Oreck advertises there. He advertises on AAR and I was going to get an air filter from him)
I wrote General Steel and told them I listen to AAR months ago. -no reply. LOL

[pstokely]

39. That's an old list, and many of those advertise on AAR

[DanCa]

24. We can just turn it off too.

I don't listen to or read that rw crap and I still know whats going on from Air America, John Stewart, Keith O, and other newscasters. If every liberal who listens to this filth would simply turn it off I bet their ratings would drop so much to the point where station owners wouldn't reup their contracts. Besides Hannity is such hermaphromitic slime that I can not understand who any reasonable person would want to watch him. I mean he exploited a woman on a death bed and interrupted a hospice for chris sake. Now I am not telling anyone what to do or post mind you - I dont have that right. I am just letting you know that these jerks need you more than you need them.

[SnoopDog]

26. On the contrary...

It is my opinion you have to fight fire with fire and inform the advertisers that because you advertise with them - I won't spend my money on their products or services. Then they might ask - well who do you listen to? And I say Air America Radio!

Proactive - not - reactive.

[DanCa]

27. I agree with you.

The point I was trying to make was that people who listen to RW are contributing to that personality being on air. I mean radio stations wont put people on unless they can give them numbers.

[upi402]

28. yep, they HATE the taste of their own medicine

those chickenhawk bastards are the biggest whiners on earth.

[Initech]

29. Another solution:

See that round knob on your car's stereo? Turn that to the "off" position.

Or better yet - switch it over to your favorite music CD of choice.

[Chi-Town Exile]

30. A Number of Rush's advertisers also advertise on AAR.

Oreck
Sleep Number Beds
Lifequotes
Avacor
Overstock.com
Onstar

Just an FYI, I wouldn't want AAR to lose advertising $$ if these companies decide that if they pull advertising from Rush's show they will have to pull it from AAR to even the score.

[Radio_Guy]

31. How about doing the reverse for AAR?

Contact the advertisers on AAR and tell them what a wonderful thing it is that they support progressive radio and buy their products and use their services. The more people that do that, the more advertisers will flock to AAR and the more stations will air it. AAR is losing affiliates and they need us to support them now more than ever.

[Mr.Green93]

32. Five minutes after we get The Fairness Doctrine

reinstated RW Radio will be gone.

[Pryderi]

36. I really believe in this idea.

[Pryderi]

38. After having AAR cancelled in 2 cities, I think we should follow through
