Boycott: NBC Refused To Report Major Economic News About Big Downward Revision In The GDP

ABC only did 21 seconds on it; only CBS did a real story.

NBC? Embargoed it entirely.

It's time for a boycott. Now that Glenn Beck is calling for one, maybe this will actually happen.

NBC is in a precarious position as far as exposure to a boycott: Their shows are awful, they're cancelling half the shows they once had high hopes for, one of their semi-draws, The Office, is ending this season (after four bad seasons and creative exhaustion), and they are the most obnoxiously liberal network on TV.

They long have been. They long ago decided their demographic would be the "Smart Urban Set," by which they mean "liberals."

Someone has to pay. Let's make it NBC.
