If you are like me you check out all the political websites: drudge, rcp, redstate.org. No More.
It was not that long ago that we on the left did not have access to quality liberal website. Now we have access to many.
I have becomed conditioned to click on drudge, redstate.org, rcp and others. This year I am not going to give them my click. I don't have the stats but my guess is that liberal make up a good percentage of thier clicking numbers. What if the left decided to stop clicking? This would really hurt them.
I have noticed lately the Drudge is slower to get headlines than Huffington. I think Matty boy is slipping. His headlines lack the punch they uses to have and his stories are so blatantly partisan that it does us no good to visit.
I think he is getting lazy and there is no reason for libs to help him out by keeping his crappy website in our daily rotation.
Another wesbite I am dropping is pollster.com. Until they stop including Scott Rassmussen in thier aggregate polling average they can not be considered a legit website - in my opinion. Razzy is pulling Obama's numbers down intentionally to halt the liberal agenda. Nate Silver posted a great story this week proving that Razzy is a definite partisan. I knew this all along and it really doesn't even bear proving - but he has been outed as a partisan pollster, thus pollster.com is acting in a hyper partisna manner by including Razzy.
If you want a decent polling wesbite you can go to pollingreport.com. They do not include Razzy and Obama's numbers look much better there and I assume his average is more acurate.
I will also boycott Rush, Hannity and the rest of the blow-hard on talk radio. Hasn't this conservative fad eneded yet? I have been avoiding these shows this year and it has been much more pleasant. Sure, it's interesting to hear thier bizarre take on the facts, but when my dial stops on thier shows it makes money for them. The only way we can fully dismantle these shows is by tuning them out.
I am sure everyone on this wesbite knows of good progressive hosts to listen to and good liberal websites or even nuetural websites. It's time we tune out the right.
Please join me in boycotting the right wing media machine this year. Put some tunes on, listen to public radio or air america, but please do not support the right by yelling at your radio. That is exactly what they want you to do.
