Nice job getting the discussion going on their side. Republican business owners with tanking businesses or who are losing customers may need to look no further than the TV channel setting in their waiting room.

I like this other guy's blog, because it is certain to backfire. He shouldn't even have brought up the idea that Fox News is customer repellant, even to ridicule it. A whole lot of people probably don't know there is even a business loss issue with Fox News. Now they will evaluate it for themselves.
