Compatriotas: No somos latrinms,so leave LD talk and blame Latins for all THE US problems,Let the ignorant blame someone who do not exist,because we are NABASIN,emigrants and migrants with a missiion,trhat of avoid ing that the Anglo Saxon civilization disappear before fullfilling its mission……….

You are right!! What if we could get 1 million people to cancel their cable service? That would send a message they could understand!

Latinos in America is about as interesting as the Blacks in America series. Do yourselves a favor. Drop cable service and save the money. That is the only message big business understands!

Corporate America is fueling this Latino immigrant drama, using CNN, FOX, Rush Limbaugh, Lou Dobbs, and Glenn Beck as a diversion to cover up the fact that Wall Street and Main Street America have looted 90% of the United States of America population for the eighth time in our nation’s history. This is Michael Milken and the Savings and Loan scandal of 1989 one thousand times over. And the U.S. Taxpayer is still paying off that scandal. This is always a result of deregulation of the markets. Every time Wall Street and Main Street loots its customers, and the economy collapses, they always divert the blame to whatever ethnic group is at the bottom of the social ladder. And Latinos have been at the bottom for over a century.

I for one (Latino) don’t care much for Lou Dobbs’ brand of journalism; however I do believe that there are groups out there taking a page from GWB’s book of lies and decit… they want to make Dobbs’ rants about Ilegal inmigration into something that it’s not. it’s not about “Latinos” it’s about “Ilegals” i.e. law breakers. If you don’t like what’s on CNN then watch..oh, IDK telenovelas?

Actually people are taken seriously when they speak up and organize. Notice how fast Dobbs backed off of the “birther” movement. Why? Because people organized and threatened to boycott. So far, I have not seen any organized call for an economic boycott of CNN and Lou Dobbs. Until that happens, he will still be on the air.

love this: “Latinos should reconsider the role of television in their lives. Imagine what could be accomplished if we tuned out this noisy, unrepresentative medium altogether and instead focused on reading to our children, watching film, and becoming more physically active.”

megan what rock did you crawl out from under to determine that “Walmart”is horrible to its employees and Macdonalds mistreats animals” You sound like Algore and his “well establish fact” of global warming being caused by human behavior. Go get a life.

It’s not surprising that CNN refused to run the ad. That shouldn’t shock anybody. But I wonder if any of CNN”s rivals would run it.

I agree with the poster who said that it’s to drop CNN altogether.
