I have in the past been opposed to boycotts to silence opinions - but the current climate is so toxic I am starting to come around on this issue - at least temporarily.

soft pedal an accused pedophile. If he is on your show, then you aggressively question him. Letting your show be a propaganda arm is not appropriate.

I would never consider a boycott of WSJ which while has a conservative bias, still attempts to be honest in its journalism. On the opinion side I would classify National Review in the same category (still recognizing that these are opinion pieces).

Fox News is something else. Every aspect (except apparently some of their news reporters) are directed towards the goal of crafting the message (if not outright lying doing things like turning off the comments section on news stories to advance an agenda).
