It wouldn't let me. Let's blog elsewhere Sat, 19 Sep 2009 02:28:01 +0000 http://blog.hgtv.com/design-star/2009/09/14/challenge-9-meet-your-new-design-star-part-2/#IDComment35052020 http://blog.hgtv.com/design-star/2009/09/14/challenge-9-meet-your-new-design-star-part-2/#IDComment35051355 We are responding to the fraud and the injustice. Justifiable anger is not wrong.

You want us to watch hgtv. Not for a million. I told the sponsors I'm not watching their ads. I intend to stick to that.

The poor fools don't know what we're saying. Is anyone talented enough to copy the entire blog old, new, and especially deleted comments and post it on the corporate sponsors websites Sat, 19 Sep 2009 01:54:07 +0000 http://blog.hgtv.com/design-star/2009/09/14/challenge-9-meet-your-new-design-star-part-2/#IDComment35049609 http://blog.hgtv.com/design-star/2009/09/14/challenge-9-meet-your-new-design-star-part-2/#IDComment35048924 Their disappointment will be greater when the ratings come in.

They are very insightful. Sad that he couldn't use his own name.

Taking the trouble to reply isn't on the agenda for most viewers, but the overwhelming majority of comments have been negative and can be extrapolated to represent tens of thousans more viewers.

My husband who is part of the audience they're trying to cultivate is thrilled with my decision.

Go to their corporate offices. Send a message to Nackey (not tacky) scagnelli.

It said, "what a fix from the top down. I will never watch hgtv again. I intend to contact all the advertisers to tell them of my displeasure." I am happy to say I have done so. In what department of hgtv do you work, Betty? Know this won't last long. They take down all comments that disagree with them. Unfortunately for you Betty America seems to disagree with you. Keep waiting for six pack joe to turn off the game and tune into your new pick. Eternity will be shorter.

Contact the corporate offices of sponsors and tell them you are furious. Sears, Lumber Liquidators, Lowe's, Glidden, Sherwin Williams.

Wonder if the advertisers will think it's worth sponsoring. Was replying to an Antonio lover but another comment slipped in.
