Countess, I was not feeling bad about you or anyone else. I'm sorry if my comments made you and anyone else feel uncomfortable.
I would have bought the newspaper as well. I just would not say that I am boycotting it. When you make a definitive stand, you can't make exceptions.
I think Fox News is destroying what little crediblity the media in our country. Do I watch them? No. Will I say that I boycott them? No. Do I buy the New York Post? No. Will I say that I will never buy a copy? No. There might be an article or an interview about someone of importance to the American folk community that I will want to read or watch.
There are exceptions. Making a good fight is one thing, but don't call it something that it isn't.
