Boycott ALL FoxNews advertisers? [View all]

A google search revealed this old, short list of Fox advertisers:
http://foxnewsboycott.com/fox-news-sponsors/fox-sponsors-a-l/

FoxNews is a right-wing propaganda machine that willfully misleads, inflames, and divides. My question is whether we on the left can realistically commit to voting with our dollars.

I'm imagining a form letter that customers/clients/consumers could send to advertisers letting them know our intent to boycott if they continue to financially support Fox.

Admittedly, the list left me a bit stressed at the idea of, for example, shredding my CapitalOne card, leaving AT&T, etc., but given the state of things, do we really have a choice?

My drop in the bucket won't move them, but our collective drops . . .

What say ye?
