“Particularly after the election, Fox keeps turning to the left,” said 70-year-old Stan Hjerlied to the Beast… Hjerlied believes that “we are really losing our only conservative network.” …

One boycotter, former New Hampshire state legislator Kevin Avard, said that he finds it difficult to go without his daily dose of right-wing commentary. “I am having withdrawal…” …

They have also demanded that the network feature ”at least one segment on Benghazi every night on two of its prime-time shows; that Fox similarly devote investigative resources to discovering the truth of Obama’s birth certificate; and that the network cease striving to be ‘fair and balanced.’”

“We need Fox to turn right,” Hjerlied said. “We think this is a coverup and Fox is aiding and abetting it. This is the way Hitler started taking over Germany, by managing and manipulating the news media.”

There is a bit more here, and for those of you keeping count this is the second Surprisingly Not an Onion Article built mostly on direct quotes from tea party activists.
