  • I wasn't calling you out on saying never - though you could just google and find that it has indeed happened at least a couple of times. I was just reminded of the HMS Pinafore score.

  • I did a quick google Fox News boycott Christians and didn't really see anything worth reporting.

    I don't doubt O'Reilly or Hannity might have bitched about something but I'd be surprised if it rose to the level of banning a fast food restaurant. Who knows?

  • That's pretty much it - fox won't call for a boycott, but you'll get the likes of O'Reilly saying "this business is a disgrace to real americans, and all patriots out there know what they should about it" and hide behind the 'he didn't actually say anything about a boycott' line.

  • quite possibly. I'm sure some college student who feels Hitler would have been good for the world would call for a boycott of Manischewitz wine. Not quite the same as booting it off the college campus, but...

    That said, on a personal level I really see no problem with it, but attempting to a conduct nationwide boycott on a product like liberals and liberal politicians try to do is wrong.

    omg you hypocritical cunt lord. You fucking conservatives try to organize nationwide boycotts every fucking year at Christmas against companies that did absolutely nothing wrong against anybody except had the audacity to call Christmas "the holidays" in their ad campaigns. The cognitive dissonance with you people is just overwhelming. You absolutely step all over your own dicks and just don't seem to care whatsoever.

    "hypocritical cunt lord"? lol

    You obviously thought you "got me" huh? Insipid name calling seems to be what happens when irrational exuberance overwhelms you. Learn to read before you get your panties all knotted up.

    You responded to my statement where I indicated that I dont agree with organized boycotts.

    I'll just go with calling you a dumbass.

    There was a decision made by the democratically elected representatives of the students to not allow the company to establish an outlet there, for political reasons. I really don't see why people are upset or surprised. The whole narrative all along from a lot of people on here has been 'if they don't want to serve gay people, that's their business and if people don't like it, the business will suffer' - now the business is suffering and people are complaining about that?

  • Chik fil a serves gay people. Woody already stated he loves their food.

  • Zing!

    Democratically elected? Teehee.. Anyway it's probably not hurting their business. I would imagine Christians as well as other decent and fair minded individuals will choose there restaurants in part because of these little liberal weenies. and come on Chris you know it has nothing to do with freedom to choose... Or capitalism...

    Palin herself made rounds on all the shows calling for the same. So they do it. No debate. Every year for the last couple. From the morning shows all the way through the day to the evening. The only shows that don't do it are the financial shows.

    The cognitive dissonance of these people is alarming. It's like multiple personality disorder at this point.

  • Everybody on Fox does this? that's stupid. You ever watch Fox News? Even once?

    Sarah Palin is not an employee or a representative of Fox News. Bill O'Reilly does an opinion show and may have asked people the boycott something but Fox News never has and to the best of my knowledge has never kept any business from doing business with them because of ideology. so you're just fucked up, sorry.

    Personally I would urge people not to eat at Jimmy Johns.

    I went to the Firehouse on 82 across from Southpark mall. It was better then Jimmy Johns and Subway, but not as good DiBella's

  • Yeah the owner is one of those assholes the pays big money to go down to Africa to shoot penned up elephants so I won't eat at the fuckers place. I hope he gets trampled too.

    1) Sarah Palin absolutely was an employee of FOX news at one point, have you forgotten that?

    2) FOX news doesn't call for boycotts of their own advertisers...are you kidding where'd you come up with that? No they call for boycotts of "any" company that uses the term holiday instead of Christmas. And yes it's every year. Of course no one takes them seriously they're clowns, but the point is that getting pantyhose in your twat because some college students banned chik fil A...but say nothing every Christmas, is weak.

  • 1)you are correct. My bad.

    2) what are you talking about?
