I know we will never knowingly buy another GE product again. Add that onto the list with GM.

This must have been really hard for Nikke Finke to write. She has my admiration for doing so.

I avoid GE products when possible and certainly do not watch MSNBC. I do watch NBC when football is on, but turn it off when that crazy Olberman starts talking.

However, GE nor anybody else should be forced to advertise in a particular paper. If GE wants to pull their advertising that is their right.

If they tried to block access to certain shareholders at a public shareholders meeting that is another story.

SamIam has a great phrase that needs an acronym; Federally Favored Corporation == FFC. We need one of the “big blogs” to pick up on this and make a list of FFC’s. That way we would know who to boycott. Start of list:

GE/NBC/MSNBC/(all the rest of the crap they own)
Government Motors
Obama Motors (Chrysler)
Disney (ABC)
CBS (who owns them?)
Citigroup (soon to be ObamaGroup)

Of course people blame Bush. FDR continued to blame Hoover for unemployment in 1939…

And Hoover appointed the first hispanic justice….Benjamin Cardozo, in 1932.

Pixelkiller,

You’ve overshot the runway! The Casablanca references are here, two posts over.

Nothing is new under the son. I’ve predicted this a while ago.

In reality, if you want to see what Obama is doing, look no further than this historic analogy:

I owe my career to GE, NBC, and Imelt. That’s why I can afford to be so generous in return with bailout money. I love NBC, Brian Williams, Ubermann, the whole gang! They can set up a studio here in my ample mansion for all I care.
