Foxless in America

Subject: Foxless in America
Friends,
Since the election I have wanted to stick my head out of a window of a tall building and shout "I can't take it anymore" but I soon came to realize that there is a better and easier way to send a message to Rupert Murdoch and his blathering bunch at Fox News and that was to simply make them disappear from my life.
I called my cable TV provider and had Fox News deleted from my television. It was simple. I called the Repair Department at Comcast and said I wanted to be "Foxless in America." I then wrote an email to the following:
Reed Nolte, VP Investor Relations for News Corporation
rnolte@newscorp.com and
Brian Lewis, Senior VP Corporate Communications for Fox News
brian.lewis@foxnews.com and to top it off I copied
rmurdoch@newscorp.com.
I told them that I cannot take the Fox distortion and biased presentation of the news any longer... I can't tell you the immense satisfaction I gained from becoming "Foxless in America."
I am asking you to follow me in this protest and let it be heard by all that want to control what we all see and hear. This could be a way to have your voice heard. Become Foxless in America. We can start a movement if each of you send this email to all the others you know who are fed up with Fox News.
