Color of Change Goes After Fox on Obama Coverage

Started by baratunde aka jack turner · 1 year ago

I just signed the petition. They’re trying to get to 100,000 signatures which they will deliver to Fox. Read more from the email they just sent me below. And also check out their spiffed up new homepage.

    There needs to be a concerted effort to boycott the FOX advertisers. Loss of Revenue...That's the only thing these idiots will understand. The right has these companies running scared because they are so organized and vocal.

    "Fox issued some form of weak apology."


    Weak? No! Empty. Fox has experts for writing apologies that sound good but say nothing.



    From COC with likely Fox comments:



    "Your network must find a solution to address racial stereotyping and hate-mongering before it hits the airwaves."



    Um, why?



    "What new changes will Fox News make to ensure the integrity of its coverage?"



    We will push the envelope further. Um, integrity? That's not part of our business model.



    "Throughout this election campaign, and beyond, I intend to ..."



    Ooh, we're scared.



    Much like their Jena 6 activism, COC accomplishments with this petition will be just as empty as Fox's apologies.
