Defend the free press. Boycott conservative media organizations. Pick one.
My point, then as now, is that "don't buy their product" is fine. The issue, if you have any clue of the context of the real world in 2019, is secondary boycotts.

Dinging or otherwise restricting folks from making a choice to do business or not in a free makret is not capitalist. Its not about speech, its about money. For example, the Washington Times has lost boatloads of cash for decades. But they still publish to get their message out
