This is easy for me to say.

I don't watch mindless television. Dancing with paraplegic stars. America's talentless cliche-ridden idol. And whatnot. I also don't care for sports, so it is no hardship for me to not see a steroid-inflicted baseball or football game. But not everyone is as tele-misanthropic as I.

That said, I am a patriot and believe in rational discourse about political events, without hysteria, name-calling, and spurious allegations.

Fox, however presents its opposition with radical, anti-American fervor. The president addressing school children as socialist brainwashing. The "birther" movement. Death panels. Obama likened to Nazis.

So, I am calling you, dear readers to take action. Boycott Rupert Murdoch properties. Don't watch Fox TV. Don't buy the NY Post. Encourage your clients to stay away from the same.

It's easy to decry the neo-fascists on Fox, then do nothing.
But if we do something, we hit back where it hurts.
