I am proud to say when I worked on a US cruise ship I got Faux New blocked. A lot of dumb passengers were not to please. That mind numbing shit is on all US cruise ships.
I've skipped the *convenience* of the convenience store around the corner for years now because not only was the TV over the door almost always on FOX they cherry'd on top with 2 flagpoles outside with Let's Go Brandon flag and now defunct state flag that contains the confederate flag.
Summer of 2016 I travelled all over the Midwest and West. Fox was playing in every hotel breakfast room. That brainwashing has been going on for a long time. It was always loathsome.
The good news is that those who are losing in the markets are doing just that. The better/worse news is that those that aren't will find themselves without pretty soon.
We need to find a computer hacker like the guy in the TV show Paradise who programmed the artificial sky to display "They are lying to you". Let's have those words flash on Fox News on every screen across the country!
There was a pizza place nearby where some local Democratic women met one evening. The proprietor said they were not welcome and not to come back. They complied. So did their friends and family, and their soccer and little league teams. Three months later the shop went out of business.
Very good point. In the UK, some waiting rooms have news channels I wouldn't watch if you paid me. Unbelievably crap. I put comments in the suggestion box.
That’s an old rule for me. Been doing that for years. Their television choices frequently reveal the way they run their business anyway. Worst and shadiest auto mechanic in my town is a MAGAt.
Since 2015, if we walk into a business and see MAGA paraphernalia or Fox News on the TV, we walk back out. Funny enough, in our blue state most of the MAGAt businesses seem to go out of business pretty quickly.
There’s a place by me- woodworking shop that makes really neat stuff- then their Trump signs went up. Their lot has been empty and now only open on weekends. Wonder why???!! 😬
Absolutely. If we're not an aristocracy by 2028 we maybe have Democratic weighted Congress and correct that miscarriage of justice with other anti-proletariat degradation
Fox has been gaming the ratings system by doing deals with hotel chains, sports bars and government facilities to keep their news, entertainment, business and sports programming on screen. Want to test that? Ask the staff to change the channel. If they say no (or that they can't) there's your sign.
Yeah, not a new rule for me.
I've even been known to occasionally change the channel when that has happened.
Fortunately, in West LA, most people know better than to admit they watch.
There’s a local garden center that flies giant Trump flags and has now for years. I drive right on by and go to another one 20 miles away instead because I won’t buy from MAGA.
I went in to a diner recently that had Fox on their tv’s. I asked to speak to the manager & told him I was there to relax & enjoy dinner with my family because we all needed to get away from the chaos. I told him that as a public eatery I found his bias unprofessional & not acceptable!
Been seeing Fox on in monopolistic medical facilities.
1. Don't leave. Instead ask to speak to a supervisor/manager.
2. Ask for their corporate PR phone number. Call them.
3. Explain to them that you will not be returning & will be advising others to not use their services.
Why does a business feel the need to have ANY TV on to begin with??? Most "programming" is BULLSHIT, and mindless staring at a TV is one of the reasons we are so fucking stupid. Simple background music is more than enough....and I don't mean more ignorance from "DJs" that feign humor every day.
I've been doing that for decades. I even complained at a HOSPITAL during covid that had it on...a HOSPITAL that was promoting vaccines for covid, while Fox was questioning them.
I'm shocked any business would hang out anything political. Why would you risk losing business? When I grew up people never blabbed about THEIR politics or religion. Same with money. That was bad manners. If all I want is a set of screwdrivers or some chicken I don't need a face full of politics.
When traveling through Wyoming everywhere we stopped had Fox News on. I made it my mission to complain to all corporate offices. Now I just won’t drive thru WY.
I used to get my hair trimmed by a woman who worked out of her house. I really liked her. My heart broke a little when I drove by her home and a huge Trump banner was hanging from it. My husband trims my hair now.
I make no purchases from stores showing Fox News or stores with MAGA or GOP merchandise. I don’t care what I need or how badly I need it, I will make that purchase elsewhere.
We need to bring back the Turn Off Fox movement of about 15 - 20 years ago. Step 1. Ask them to change the channel. If they won't, Step 2 is to secretly use a universal remote to change it yourself.
We did that Wednesday. Told them why and said we’d let everyone know about their lack of critical thinking may lead to health violations in the kitchen. 🤷🏼 #resist
Dig it! I’m all in! And if they work on commission, let them know, big mistake, huge! Like that one lady did in the movie that glamorized prostitution.
We adopted the practice of asking our local businesses to change the channel if turned to Fox. If they do so, we will continue to patronize. If not, we will take our money elsewhere.
No one has refused yet.
I pulled in and out of a Circle K the other day because of the large Make America Great sign, then wrote corporate. The Dist. Mgr actually wrote back immediately and sad the sign will be removed that they do not allow that
That has been my rule since 2016 and if you have Trump paraphernalia on display in your store I will leave empty handed. I used to be able to get a remote control app and put it on msnbc. For spite. I’m like that.
Hey @foxnewscorporation.bsky.social
Why did you take the stock ticker off the bottom of your page for the first time ever?
Do you think your viewers are that stupid?
There should be a full boycott of the major advertisers/supporters of Fox News. They are enablers and willful supporters of the hateful misinformation of MAGA Republicans and Project 2025. They should not be supported for backing the constant lying and vengefulness of ultra-right extremism.

Went into a car dealership in Bellevue NE a few years ago to find Fox playing on the waiting room TV. Plenty of watchers there, so I made them find me a private room to wait for my car.
absolutely. If they have ANY Trump bs or say anything pro Trump, I am out. They get very shocked and offended when you do that. "They're just expressing their feelings" and so am I.

I'll never respect anyone who respects Fox or trump.
McDonald’s 2013. Haven’t touched that poison since.
You don’t win back trust after poisoning my body AND my mind.
They have Friday Fish Fry, which is a big deal in the Midwest.
Smells great. It would be perfect for me to phone in an order and pick it up on my way home after a long week.
But, they always have trump signs in the window, so I have never ordered, not once.
The very best way to protest peacefully.

I walk right out 🤷🏽♀️
they recently mandated that the TV stay on Faux News. I’m never going back.
If I can part ways with my own MAGA family, I'm sure as sh!t not spending a penny on a MAGA establishment!

Been personally doing this since about 2003 after we got lied into Iraq.
Boycott Tesla and the lies
Boycott Walmart
Target Amazon etc. they are un-American.
Fox News is America's biggest enemy.
I asked if there was a reason why CNN or even *gasp* MSNBC wasn’t also on, from time to time.
It worked, sort of. They never did put CNN on……but they stopped putting Faux on.
