"If you're trying to change minds and influence people it's probably not a good idea to say that virtually all elected Democrats are liars, but what the hell."
Back in the day the German National Socialists burned books by communists, Darwinists and prominent Jewish intellectuals. Today the Communists, Darwinists and prominent Jewish intellectuals would like to return the favor.
To answer your question, there were plenty of people who listened to the Nazis. I assume those people didn't burn books until the Nazis told them to. Both of people who still pay any attention to CNN don't watch FOX to begin with, so their call for a boycott will make zero difference. GrinfilledCelt
If you look at their whole body of work - stealing conservative campus newspapers; shouting down conservative speakers; mounting a well financed campaign at companies that advertised on Glenn Beck; refusing to show up for political debates moderated by Fox News; refusing to review books written by conservatives, blah-blah blah -- all this amounts to book burning in its broadest sense. Silencing critics with alternative viewpoints. Oui?
