Don't pretend that people on the right never start any boycotts.

Target, McDonalds, Starbucks, Lowe’s, Pay Pal, and General Mills have all been hit with boycotts from the right.

And abrupt vacation? It is memorial day.

No problem though. Alternative methods of these "personalities" able to voice their opinions is quickly emerging. It has no sponsors so lefties won't be able to issues threats and boycotts when they are against free speech.

So i agree it is the free market at work. But the free marker it changing in terms of media. The old tricks the left used to pull will no longer be effective. This is a fight the left has pursued for years Back in the late 90's the left wanted to stifle free speech with a return to the fairness doctrine. That failed miserably. Next, they hada the failed attempt at Air America. As you say people voted with their wallets and that failed miserably. Next, the left turned to propaganda an boycotts in an attempt to shut down conservative voices. But, thanks to places like Amazon Fire, Smart TVs and Apps, you can now subscribe directly to guys like Mark Levin, Glenn Beck, and others. Levin is doing fine. And the beauty is there is nothing to boycott. The same goes for networks. With the internet I can stream any news service I want and I pay a fraction of what i paid for cable or direct TV.

The Free Market includes the fascistic behavior of your side, Dim, but that doesn't excuse their behavior. And no one is doing anything with their wallets, without the campaign waged by your side.

That's the point.

Your side is far, far, far worse. Boycotting Chick Filet because of one comment in an interview?

Firing a Mozilla executive because he gave a contribution on an issue "supported" at the time by Obama and both Clinton's?

Your ugly contribution to driving Rush Limbaugh off the air over one bad joke.

To cite just three of countless.

Hannity and other are constant targets of the Fascist Left, who give a free pass to far worse behavior on their side.

Fox News Says Sean Hannity Will Return to Show

Fox News Channel lent support to its best-known anchor Sean Hannity, saying Thursday that the popular host would return to its air next week following a Memorial Day holiday vacation – an effort to tamp down speculation that a controversy currently enveloping Hannity could escalate further.

“Like the rest of the country, Sean Hannity is taking a vacation for Memorial Day weekend and will be back on Tuesday,” the 21st Century Fox-owned network said in a statement. “Those who suggest otherwise are going to look foolish.”

Hannity has become embroiled in a furor over his recent promotion of a discredited story about the death last summer of Seth Rich, a DNC staffer who was murdered in Washington, D.C. last July in what local police have stated they believe is a botched robbery. Hannity has in recent days promoted an unproven theory that Rich was killed in exchange for providing internal documents to Wikileaks, prompting statements of outrage from the Rich family.

On Tuesday, Fox News said it had retracted a story, published on FoxNews.com, about Rich’s murder – believed to mark a rare instance of the news outlet has withdrawing an article over its more than 20-year history. The killing remains unsolved and right-leaning press outlets such as Breitbart and The Drudge Report have in posts and links bolstered the wild conspiracy. Hannity continued to promote the theory about Rich on his Tuesday radio show, noting that “this issue is so big now that the entire Russia collusion narrative is hanging by a thread.”

But on his Fox News broadcast Tuesday night, Hannity appeared to back away from the contretemps. “Out of respect for the family’s wishes, for now, I am not discussing the matter at this time,” Hannity said.

A handful of small advertisers, including Cars.com, have indicated they were moving their commercials out of Hannity’s program in the aftermath – prompting comparisons to the recent exit of Bill O’Reilly. O’Reilly was the linchpin of Fox News’ primetime lineup, and parted ways after sponsors defected from his “O’Reilly Factor” following revelations he had made approximately $13 million in settlements to women who had alleged he had sexually harassed them or subjected them to inappropriate behavior. O’Reilly and Fox News parted ways in April.

“Hannity” generates millions of dollars in ad revenue for Fox News Channel. In 2016, the show brought in approximately $65.7 million, according to Kantar Media, a tracker of ad spending. That represented a 17% jump from the approximately $56.1 million the show captured from Madison Avenue in 2015.

In an interview with The Huffington Post on Wednesday, Hannity said the ad shifts represented efforts by progressives to silence him. “There’s nothing that I did, nothing that I said, except they don’t like my position politically,” he said. “They’ll try to ratchet up the intensity of their rationale. It does not justify an attempt to get me fired. And that’s what this is. This is an attempt to take me out. This is a kill shot.”

No, it wasn't, you **** liar! Here you are, yet AGAIN, putting something in there that you decide to put in there because you're dishonest as the day is long. I said exactly what my position has always been and continues to be, and that is the foundation **** will either be investigated or it will not be investigated. And yeah, I said you're not well, which you aren't.

Now that you can't prove that he was right, you've decided to leave all that foundation stuff to further investigation.

The disingenuous assumption being that I was TRYING to prove him right, being the dishonest hack you are. My whole perspective on Whore Clinton is her **** felonies with those **** emails, and the foundation **** is way in the background to that. And since you don't give the first **** about her exposing information that could very well lead to deaths, I said that you're not well, and you aren't. What kind of a **** bitch doesn't give a **** about what that whore provably did? I bet you gave lots of **** about Scooter Libby who did nothing anywhere near what this whore did.

Helluva try there Mr.Larry.
Next time you think about reflexively jumping in to defend someone, you might want to do a little research first.

There was no "try" to it. I stated a fact. Quote me defending Sarge's position on the foundation ****. I'll await your reply.

I haven't researched them and I'm not about to, so for the sake of argument, I will concede that they are true.

Still don't see what that has to do with the Clinton kill list.

I get it.
You don't know for a fact that the Clintons have murdered a whole bunch of people.
You just know it's true.

Me, I prefer to live in a world where if someone killed anywhere from 33 to 90 people (depending on which right wing website you want to go with) they would be brought to justice.

Yeah, all this **** about the Clintons is nothing more than that everlasting "vast right wing conspiracy" at work. They are the scum of the earth and people are sick and tired of them getting by with all they do. They are never brought to justice even when there is undeniable PROOF of felonies. But you don't give a **** about any of that, which makes you as bad as they.

That's called projection. When a person is willing to behave in dishonest, disingenuous, despicable ways, they think their opposition will do that, thus accusations of what they do.

Put the quote in there - otherwise I don't know which one you're talking about.

So apparently violently assaulting a reporter who is just doing his job, is perfectly acceptable to Republicans now.

Greg Gianforte wins Montana special election a day after being charged with assault.

That's a lie. A lot of Republicans are almost certainly upset, but the Repub candidate was still more acceptable than the leftist wackjob put up by the Democrat Party.

Apparently violating the Constitution and federal law is perfectly acceptable to Democrat Talking Point Liars.

James Rosen: New Evidence Obama Administration's NSA Spied On Americans


FOX News chief Washington correspondent James Rosen reports documents show NSA systematically violated rights of countless Americans.


JAMES ROSEN: On the day President Obama visited Los Angeles last October, to yuck it up with Jimmy Kimmel, the National Security Agency were quietly informing the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA) that NSA had systematically violating the rights of countless Americans. A subject covered, ironically, on Kimmel's program...


Declassified documents first obtained by the news outlet Circa show the FISA court sharply rebuked the Obama administration. 'With greater frequency than previously disclosed to the court, NSA analysts had used U.S. person identifiers to query the results of internet "upstream" collection, even though NSA's section 702 minimalization procedures prohibited such queries.'


Minimization refers to the precautions the government is supposed to take to ensure that its infringement on the rights of citizens is at a minimum. Judges blasted NSA's institutional lack of candor and added: 'This is a very serious 4th Amendment issue.'


The documents show it was back in 2011 when the FISA court first found NSA's procedures to be 'stautorially and Constitutionally deficient with respect to their protection of U.S. person information.'


Five years later, two weeks before election day, the judges learned that NSA had never adequately enacted the changes it had promised to make.


'The NSA inspector general and its office of compliance for operations [have been] conducting other reviews covering different time periods, with preliminary results suggesting that the problem was widespread during all periods of review.'


ANDREW NAPOLITANO, FOX NEWS: There is a linear connection between excessive aquisition of data by the intelligence community, distribution of that raw data to people who do not need to know it, availablitiy of unmasking, which is producing the real true names of the human beings whose emails, texts, and phone calls were the subjects of all this, and then ultimately the select revelation of those names!


ROSEN: Sen. Rand Paul called this an "amazing abuse of power" while a spokesman for former President Obama did not return our request for comment.

Talk about projection.
You seem perfectly willing to believe that crap, so what does that say about you?

Once again Larry jumps in to defend the lying Bilko.
That didn't go so well for you the last time you did that.
You think you would have learned.

Of course I do NOT believe that when Conservatives say they are praying for a family they are lying.
That would be a ridiculous thing to believe, and something I never said.

But as usual, he lies and you just co-sign it, because after all it's okay to lie about a Liberal, especially me.

Ironic that I'm the one who gets branded a liar by you guys all the time, when you just make **** up about me all the time.

Honestly, I'm sick of the whole bunch of you.
You all act like a bunch of mean girls.

Umm, let's look at the facts first. This is from another thread:

Now, let's get down to the real situation, not lefties spun interpretation. A reporter is hounding someone. That someone is in a room or office granting a private interview to another report. The annoying reporter is asked to leave and refuses. Instead he interrupts, sticks a recording device into the face, and then gets shoved out the way and ends up on the floor. I am ok with it. Particularly if the individual who shoved the reporter out of the way understands since the reporter is a ****** their may be legal consequences.

So let me ask you. If you are in a private meeting and I bust in and stick a recorder in your face, you ask me to leave and I refuse what are YOU going to do?

You get this much and then I am done with you.

Huey: "Now, let's get down to the real situation, not lefties spun interpretation."

That's funny, because from what you wrote right after that sentence it looks like you were spinning like a top.

Neither the audio of the incident nor the accounts of the people from Fox news who witnessed it bear out your version of the event.

The reporter was doing nothing different than any other reporter would do.
He was not 'hounding' Gianforte.

He asked a question about the CBO score that had just come out because Gianforte had refused to take a stand on the AHCA until the CBO released it's findings.

Since it was the night before the election, Jacobs felt this was his only chance to get an answer to that question, so when Gianforte refused to answer, he tried to ask it again.

Voters had a right to know where he stood on the AHCA before going to the polls.
It's kind of an important issue.

And Jacobs was not just 'shoved out of the way.'

According to eye witnesses, Gianforte grabbed Jacobs around the neck, slammed him to the ground and began punching him.

But I guess you know better than the people who were actually in the room.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/05 ... orter.html

People running for office and elected officials have recorders and microphones stuck in front of their faces all the time, and they don't body slam the reporters.

If they can't take being questioned about their positions, then they shouldn't run for office.
