First we have to increase the boycott on the whole project. They will not change their ways if they cannot see financial spikes when we choose to watch and lose massive amounts of money when we choose to block them. MSNBC went semiconservative in 2022 and only kept up the progressive image until the election. So if they don't change, don't watch. I worked there, and I haven't watched a minute in a year. I've listened to Rachel and Lawrence but only when they is not on air., but on YouTube or social media.

So if you want a progressive channel, you need to plan: Target all programs that are not progressive and reward programs like Rachel-Lawrence that are good. If they don't change, then they don't get my money.
