The Murdoch family's Fox "News" did its best to foment national fear and loathing with its dangerously bogus claim that the car explosion at Niagara Falls was terrorism.

It's a reminder that Murdoch and his underlings relentlessly inject poison into our civic bloodstream, for profit and power.

If you subscribe to cable/satellite TV or a digital equivalent, you are sending them money every month.

Please stop. Please cancel. Do not support this evil company.

Severing cable means severing the only Left leaning broadcast as well, MSNBC, the only anti-fascist channel out there, since CNN is merely FOX Lite now and the other news outlets are mainly "celebrity TV" and "mass murder" coverage. One can still turn to the BBC I suppose, but there's nothing else out there to stream, and MSNBC the next day seems somewhat empty. I'd love to get rid of all stomach-turning religious programming, too, like Eternal World Television Network and 700 Club.
