Along with everyone else I have grown disgusted by the constant lies and sensationalism that ***** keeps spouting. Nj.com has a large readership and the main reason being is that they produce far more content than all other sources combined. I think after the latest incident, we can agree that while the board was pissed at Sarge and Dan for keeping the story alive, they were right in the end, and i respect both as journalists. While we can agree to disagree about that, there is no disagreement that Politi has maintained an anti Rutgers agenda and will stop at nothing to hurt the school...So what can we do
A) we can do what we always do and sit back , read his articles and then bitch at them amongst each other and repeat til infinity
B) we can claim not to click on his articles but let's face it, he is such a sensationalist that he will always get clicks and clicks means employment
C) we can hit NJ.com in the only place they care about..their wallet. If we can find out who their 2 or 3 biggest advertiser's are and begin an online petition and can get a list of 5000 or more names promising to boycott the business until Politi is fired, it's a win win for everyone. Nj.com gets rid of his bloated salary, our fan base finally shows the Ledger that Rutgers does have a back bone but surprise..it's not the administration but it's their fans..the same fans who can refuse to patronize the advertisers who pay the salary of this little weasel
C) Dan and Sarge seem like genuinely good guys who just have orders from above to go negative as often as possible. Having spoken to both, I don't get the sense that they enjoy doing that if not warranted whereas Politi probably enjoys yelling Fire in a children's nursery.
I am open to any ideas that we as fans can band together to send a message to Manahan that we aren't going to take it, and I believe that Stevie - boy is an excellent choice for our initial focus
Of course, this is just my opinion but if you share my beliefs and would like to take action, please use this thread to share some logical ideas to get the desired results
