Kill your TV.
Don't just put it out for the trash man.
Kill it.
Kill it now.
Be progressive.
You know it is the right thing to do.
Do the right thing.
For once in your life take a stand for the good of mankind.
Save yourself.
Save your children.
Do your part to affect real change in this cock-eyed world.
Kill it.
Kill it now.
Kill your TV.

just to see what the masses are being fed.

8. Save yourself.
In order to do something new yopu have to stop doing something old. Kill your TV and save yourself.

5. And Gillian Anderson is starring...

4. Sundance channel? HBO? C-Span? Comedy Central? Discovery HD?
I'm not going to kill my TV. On top of that it was expensive.

10. Why kill it? It's a tool. Use it for good. TDS and Colbert are
almost a daily necessity to help with my sanity. C-Span 2 Book TV on weekends. Golden-era Hollywood on TCM. No Foxnews. No CNN... unless something big happens like a Katrina or a Columbia.

11. We own a television, and as a family watch between 0-5 hours per week
It's completely a self-restraint issue. If you allow yourself to become consumed by your television, it is quite possible that you have also allowed other issues to have consumed your life as well.
