When is this ridiculous bullsh*t going to end? Unfortunately I don't see it happening anytime soon. The last thing CBS wants to see is the Masters TV broadcast rights open up to public bidding. I hope the CBS executives have the guts to stand up to this crap and say f*uck you to liberals demanding this crap.

This seems like a case where the journalist who wrote the article does not represent the opinion of the company disclosure comes into play.

Georgia just wants valid voting. Not sure why this has liberals up in arms.



Just kidding. We all know why.

I guarantee you also that the Masters has emphasized no political bullshite to be mentioned on the air by Nance and company. Or that 1 year TV contract may not be renewed, or the very least whoever talking head mentions political shite will go by way of Gary McCord.

The green jacket members of AN know it. The question is, do the CBS executives know it?

The Masters is untouchable. They can frick off.

It will never end. These cultural fascists who comprise the SJW movement want everyone to be as miserable as they are. Alienating a people from its cultural institutions is one way to make everyone miserable.

Following criticism of the editorial nature of the writing, CBS quietly changed the article's headline to read: "Activists are calling on big companies to challenge new voting laws. Here's what they're asking for."

Everything that’s wrong with news organizations exposed in one paragraph.

1) They are activists instead of neutral observers and reporters.

2) They get called out, so they invent a very vague and generic group of supposedly real activists.

I’ll tell you what, for people that screamed from the roof tops there was no funny business in 2020 they sure are upset about legislation that would prevent the funny business that they said would never and could never happen

Exactly.

They want to cheat and this makes it harder. We all know it.

It is not going to stop until Republicans play the same game these Democrats do.

Boycott. Not just talk about it. Actually do it. When the people boycott, the Republican politicians will suddenly find their backbone and speak out too.

Only when companies get hurt in the pocketbook will they change. As it is now, corporations don’t want to piss off the Left because they know they will actually boycott and trash their company in the media and online like crazy. These corporations bet on Republicans making some noise but not actually doing anything. They know it hurts them way more if they don’t cave to the woke mob.

So again, the only way to fix this is to actually hit these corporations in the wallet. Eventually, the threat of mutually assured destruction by both sides will force these companies to stay out of politics again.

I haven’t enjoyed a political “win” in about 5 years so I’m not taking anything for granted and honestly pray the Masters holds firm.
