Posted by Michelle Moquin on September 25th, 2011
Good morning!
Do you know who you’re supporting when you buy products…when you’re out shopping buying the things you like? Do you know that you may be supporting FOX News sponsors?
Here’s a list from A-L. It’s a long one so plan on scrolling….
Fox Sponsors A – L
The following is the most comprehensive list of Fox advertisers online. Every attempt is made to keep the list as accurate as possible, though some sources used may have contained errors that were not caught when compiling the list and verifying contact information.

Douglas: What you posted was so shocking to me I had to find the write, and read it. And read it I did. The bombshell didn’t stop there. Here’s another little segment that you didn’t post that I think is worth blogging.
The Shabab and other militant Islamist groups in Somalia have become famous for their zeal in enforcing their strict interpretation of Islamic purity. Last year, the Shabab outlawed school bells in a southern Somalia town after deciding that they sounded too much like church bells. The Shabab have also banned bras, gold teeth, dancing and soccer, deeming them un-Islamic, and barred many Western aid groups, even though Somalia is suffering from a famine and tens of thousands of people have already starved to death.
Another militant Somali group, Hizbul Islam, ordered radio stations to stop playing music, which forced broadcasters to eliminate even the faintest suggestion of harmonious sounds from their daily programming. Some stations substituted the musical introductions to news broadcasts with the sounds of gunshots, engine roars, car horns and animal grunts.
From the desk Of Anonz: I thought Peter’s comments were interesting. Yours takes it to a whole other level. It is always illuminating what you write here. I’ll ask you to keep it coming as well.
PrP: I too HOPE that your wishes are answered, and if they have been already, I HOPE you were in bliss. :)
Laura: Love your play on words.

Hi Misch,
Great idea though this is a long list and getting new health insurance for someone with a pre-existing condition could prove difficult, amongst other obstacles…great mission though, and it would take about a million (not a huge number in the relative scheme of things) customers of one of these to cause them to change (the demographic they’re trying to hit speaks to this choice in stations though), take P&G for instance, check this out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Procter_%26_Gamble_brands to check their other brands – the list is large and it’s not that you cannot find an alternative, though you do have to consider other issues that may concern you, too, such as: is the alternative US made or made in China (pretty sure everything has been outsourced to China) and other things of that nature…
And I own a BMW and love it, what do I do with them, just let them know I’m disappointed that they advertise on FOX bc and though I don’t fit the ‘rethug’ profile, I’m sure many rethugs are in the BMW/MBZ demo and they’re not likely to shift stations – unless millions of people email threatening to boycott this car purchase…hmm – but I’ll write a letter and hope a few million join me : ) I can’t honestly say I don’t want that BMW650 white w/convertible or a MBZ SL550 either should I encounter a windfall of green : ) (that would be after donating my fair share to several choice charities) and I’m quite sure the mix of TV/radio/print for almost all of these advertisers would include MSNBC though I won’t say for sure bc I have not verified that thought, will check it…
Luv, Zen Lill
September 25th, 2011 at 2:50 pm
Hmmm, there is a little bit of overlap of advertisers, so I think it’s a case of BMW, for example, knowing that there’s just as many people who would drive a BMW/MBZ that are liberal and watch MSNBC (or another NOT conservative station, tv or radio) as there are rethugs who would catch the ads on FOX. Its a start though and an email expressing ones self certainly is never a loss. – ZL

SCIENTIFIC PROOF OF ASTROLOGY?
There was all sorts of excitement among zodiac zealots a few months back when news surfaced about research from Vanderbilt University that provided “scientific evidence” to support the principles of astrology.
This development was reported with great enthusiasm in a variety of media, including reputable magazines such as Science Daily.
Most of the buzz had to do with the fact that the Vanderbilt researchers were supposedly dismayed by their own findings.
Astrology was not what they intended to study, they said, but rather something called “seasonal biology.” It all piqued my curiosity, and I set out on my own quest to learn the truth of the matter.
The study, published in the December 5, 2010, issue of Nature Neuroscience, revealed that the “season” (artificially created by adjusting the daily duration of light in the environment at the birth of mice and for the three weeks until they were weaned) had a “dramatic and persistent effect” on their biological clocks as young adults, causing them to be more sluggish (those born in winter light) or more adaptive (those born in summer light).
IMPLICATIONS OF THE LIGHT
Lead author, Douglass McMahon, PhD, professor of biological sciences at Vanderbilt, observed that it’s long been known that our “biological clock” regulates moods (among other things) in human beings.
But if it’s true that light duration and intensity at birth imprints in humans the same way that it does in mice — and there is reason to believe it does –
then, he said, “that might not only have an effect on a number of behavioral disorders but also a more general effect on personality.”
What does this have to do with astrology?
Astrology is based on when and where you were born — and that includes how much and what type of light you were exposed to.
Hence, the astrologers pounced on the mouse light study as “proof” of the science behind astrology –
but, Dr. McMahon told me quite adamantly, the researchers were discussing “seasonal biology,” not astrology.
Since I like to think of myself as someone with an open mind, I called Eric Francis Coppolino, professional astrologer and founder of PlanetWaves.net astrological information and services, which publishes astrology Web sites, to get his take on the research.
He noted that birth charts (called “natal charts” in Western astrology) are based on the positions of the sun, moon and planets in relationship to the earth at the moment of a person’s birth.
These positions all affect light exposure, temperatures and (though almost negligibly, he acknowledged) gravitational pull.
In his view, this study “is saying in its own way that when a person is born, the season and presumably the amount of light influences his/her psyche. If that isn’t astrology, I don’t know what is.”
WHAT DO THE STARS SAY?
Although most scientists recoil at the idea that astrology could have any basis in fact, Coppolino told me that this is far from the only research to reveal a scientific basis for the principles of astrology.
From the mid-1950s through 1991, French psychologist and statistician Michel Gauquelin spent much time documenting the validity of certain astrological fundamentals.
The most famous of these is the so-called Mars Effect, which demonstrated that Mars — a planet associated in astrology with having high energy and endurance, along with warrior-like traits –
appears in a prominent position in the natal charts of many more professional athletes (for example, Mohammad Ali) than nonprofessional athletes.
Coppolino’s claim is that astrology is complex and involves many disciplines, including math, astronomy, psychology, mythology, sociology and anthropology…
and, he told me, it’s unlikely that you could run all that through “the dry analytical filter of science and have one total effect that scientifically establishes the whole thing.”
The motivation behind early astrology was to improve the harvest, and the gathering of information concerning time, seasons and light evolved into a discipline of organizing observations of the planets and constellations and testing theories that formed the basis of astrology.
FACT OR FICTION?
Coppolino said it’s more accurate to understand the “science” as “psychological astrology,” a term that reflects the growing interest people have in learning more about themselves.
This means that the heavenly bodies are just one element to examine in exploring who you are and why you are that way.
“While some astrologers still will give you the best date for your wedding,” he said, “many of us are more interested in helping people come to understand what it is about their behavioral patterns that has led to successes and to failures.”
The mouse study opens the door to connecting the art of astrology’s seasonal personality profiles with the science of the impact of light on our lives.

Fram a rural school n Massachusetts comes this little gem. An 11 year old boy wrote his essay on “The Horse.”
———————–
The horse is the most useful animal in the world. So is the cow. I once had thirteen ducks and two was Drakes. I once knew a boy that had 7 chickens but his father woodent let him keep them so he got mad and bored a hole in his fathers wheelbare. My dog is named Rustey. We have two cats. I wish I had a horse. A horse weighs 1000 pounds.

Kenyan Nobel Peace Prize winner Wangari Maathai has died in Nairobi while undergoing cancer treatment at the age of 71.
Maathai was the first African woman to win a Nobel Peace Prize in 2004 for promoting conservation, women’s rights and transparent government.
She was the founder of the environmental group Green Belt Movement, and had served as a member of parliament in 2002.
The organisation also campaigned on education, nutrition and other issues important to women.
“It is with great sadness that the family of Professor Wangari Maathai announces her passing away on 25 September, 2011, at the Nairobi Hospital, after a prolonged and bravely borne struggle with cancer,” the Green Belt Movement said in a statement.
Maathai, who was also a veterinary anatomy professor, rose to international fame for campaigns against
government-backed forest clearances in Kenya in the late 1980s and 1990s.
She branded the clearances a political ploy that caused irreversible environmental damage.
The courts blocked her suits and Green Belt lawyers complained that their cases were dismissed on technical grounds or their files were mysteriously lost.
In her speech accepting the Nobel prize, Maathai said she hoped her own success would spur other women on to a more active role in the community.
“I hope it will encourage them to raise their voices and take more space for leadership,” said Maathai.

More detail would go a long way towards clarity Zen Lill. What boycott? There are lots of boycotts in the Philippines.
September 26th, 2011 at 7:34 am
Sonja, Lysistrata was your clue clarity…the Filipino village where the women boycotted sex bc the men kept warring with a neighboring village making trade and everything else near impossible, all worked out now and everyone’s busy making love not war. Clear? Luv, ZL

Finally someone grabs a pair and speaks out against the obvious reason the white boy gives so much press and credence to the Tea Party.
Of course it wouldn’t come from a white boy. Thank you Morgan Freeman. He had to leave the country to to it because he would have been severely criticized had he done it in the US ala Reverend Wright.
White America is always poised to unite against any perceived attack upon their race while showing very little conscious concerning the what any member of theirs does to or says about the OTW’s race.
Here is an excerpt – Morgan Freeman laid down the chips on the Tea Party in a new interview with Piers Morgan that is due to air Friday night.
The Oscar-winning actor sat down with the British TV host and, amongst other things, discussed his belief that the right wing Tea Party’s anti-Obama stance is rooted in racism.

If that sparks you interest you can follow this link – .huffingtonpost.com/2011/09/23/morgan-freeman-tea-party-racist_n_978123.html?ref=mostpopular
Are OTWs supposed to believe that it just never occurs to white america that the tea party could be racists?

Start a rumor:
Jane Fonda visited Hanoi in 1972 at the instigation of her secret lover Richard Nixon. (Roger Vadim had given her a taste for tall, dark, strange men.) Her mission was to pose as a dumb, treacherous, liberal, anti-Vietnam protestor, lull the Commies into a false sense of security with her breasts and coquettish manner, and sneak homing beacons onto NVA anti-aircraft gun emplacements—all of which were subsequently destroyed on B-52 bombing raids ordered by her secret lover.
She also smuggled back messages from downed U.S. pilots, concealing them in a body cavity not likely to be searched by the North Vietnamese.
Unfortunately, the letters gave her a painful infection, as did her affair with Nixon, which is the source of Hanoi Jane’s lifelong resentment of American prisoners of war.
This explains her infamous statement that returning POWs who claimed to have been tortured and brain washed were “hypocrites and liars.” That wasn’t the real, kind, generous Jane talking; it was the poxy jilted lover.
=========REBUTTAL=============
Racist white boys suffering from in the psychosis phase really hate women. Notice how much vitriolic fervor the author extends towards the private sexual parts of a woman as he attacks Jane Fonda.
His lack of fear that white women will object to this treatment of a woman shows the ignorance and complete dominance the white boy has over a significant sector of the white female population.

Alycedale, I read that article in Huff. I am sure white america is chumping at the bit to chastise Mr. Freeman for his remarks. Speaking of those true remarks, this is the point I think he made very well.
————————–
When asked by Morgan whether Obama’s presidency has made racism in the United States better or worse, Freeman, who once played apartheid-defying South African president Nelson Mandela, frankly stated that his time in office has made it worse, as he has become a target of the right’s aggression.
“Their stated policy, publicly stated, is to do whatever it takes to see to it that Obama only serves one term,” the actor said. “What’s, what does that, what underlines that? ‘Screw the country. We’re going to whatever we do to get this black man, we can, we’re going to do whatever we can to get this black man outta here.’”
Declaring once again that “it’s a racist thing,” Freeman said the group’s rise has shown the hate still lingering in America.
————————
Anyone in America knows that that is true. What else does that “party” bring to the table but a “great white hope,” this time in the political instead of the sports arena?
