the reason why CNN won't die is because of their viewship. Most people see CNN in a doctors office, Airport, train station, etc. They put them on years ago and never changed the channel.
If we buy these little remotes we can change the channel. Nobody will change it back, because they don't give enough of a shit
If we do this in as many places as we can, CNNs viewership will plummet and they'll become irrelevant
If we buy these little things we can change the
Honestly for the price why not 2$ to fuck with people kek
You'd think bang good.com would be something else. Also
>buy my shit goy!
This is actually a good idea, I'm surprised no one has proposed it before.
HA! Do it.
Good idea! Op was not a faggot today. Have a bump.
A good phone will do this.
You do realize that ratings are calculated based on Nielsen households, right? Changing those channels won't matter.
Last year my boss put me in charge of booking rooms for staff going to a conference. I got to call reservations departments of various high end hotels and negotiated rates on 30 rooms. At the time cnn were on another one of their anti trump pro hard working feminist lesbian Mexican illegals stories. I'd had enough of the bullshit.
I said to all the hotels, price not that big of an issue, what we need to know is if you are cnn affiliated. Six said yes. I told them 'sorry bout that, my boss is adamant we cant support a hotel that broadcasts that network. Thank you for your time we will take our business elsewhere'.
The seventh said no its not a channel on our list. We booked with them.
Reality is my boss probably dgaf. But felt good telling reservations departments that they were losing out on at least $15k in accommodation and god knows how much more in food and beverage just because they showed cnn.
>thousands of normie NPCs that pass daily on airports/train stations not getting exposed to (((((CNN))))) fake consensus
>it won't matter
you can't stop the truth
I'm catholic
Fuck off shill. Go lick Hillarys pussy
>Cable boxes
TV's need to have cable boxes now, not sure this would work anymore because you can only change the channel via the box which is usually out of sight somewhere.
They usually don't do a good job hiding them
1.80
>Nobody will change it back, because they don't give enough of a shit
If nobody gives a shit to change it back, then nobody gave a shit that CNN was on in the first place.
They're usually all on the same feed that's been split to all the TV's in the terminal. I was a cable guy once.
Doesn't mean we can't turn them off.
#FakeNewsDoesntFly
If CNN reports good news about Trump the people who can't stand Trump will turn off the channel. Let's face it, if you hate the guy, you're not going to turn on the channel and get pissed because the guy you like is winning. You'll find something more pleasant to do with your time. How do you get them to report good news about trump?
Calm down. CNN's viewer ship is at an all time low. They are in their downward spiral. Eventually, companies will be pulling ads from their network.
Forcing people to change their channel is both childish thuggery. It's what a commie would do.
Let CNN die off at it's own pace. Ted Turner might be a cucker fuck but once he realizes that CNN is not a money pit, hell pretty much be forced to sell. Or shut down. Don't worry. It's going to happen.
Get a decent phone with ir blaster built in and free app
No excuse for not having one
Even
Pfft! CNN couldn't even touch truth with a stolen dildo taped to its hand. Have fun clinging to your tabloid and CIA infected shillshow
CNN is about to lose the Airport contact FYI. It is up for renewal and the government decides who gets the contract. Guess who is not getting it.
don't you have to program this shit to a specific TV?
Bump
He is already trying to give it to AT&T. Even AT&T doesn't want CNN they just want the rest of Turner's company. This why they are trying to get Jeff Zucker fired as part of the deal.
Companies won't pull ads, Turner has nothing to do with CNN anymore. Step out of your basement sometime and read something other than Sup Forums
Hello /biz/ doing fine I see!
They don't. It's just to drop viewership
I'm saying change the channel where it's been on for the past 5 fucking years not change anyone's opinion
This could work at a gas station. If we find the box. Also any fucking user working at one should be turning that shit off when it's your shift. But gas station cameras everywhere? Boss may notice. Need more thinking if any of this is going to work?
Yeah it's actually kinda simple. You just hold down the mute button until the tv Is muted
I know you're a Slav but in America $1.80 isn't that big of a deal
I lost the remote for my TV, thanks OP
Usually there's a blind spot
>not change anyone's opinion
What is the whole fucking point of this then?
Just relive your teen prank years?
>banggood
I wonder who could be behind this post
I'm no genius but changing the opinion of an entire fucking network is pretty hard
Based ~~~
We salute you, kiwi
That's right, we're stopping FAKE NEWS
Back in the days I "jailbroke" my psp 1000 and would use the IR port to turn on projectors at school, TV's radios etc. Good times I recommend it. Some phones have IR ports also, my LG G3 does.
>not doing this already for years with your phone
Little late to the party there user
why didnt we think of this before. I work in a hospital, going to go change every fucking tv before i leave. There are prob 100 tvs with cnn on right now LOL
What channel do we change it to when everything on tv is shit?
fox news, yes i know it is shit too, but just to send a message. They will know what is going on if they start seeing fox everywhere in airports lol
Kek maybe like 20 years ago, but your foolish if you don't think that those digital cable boxes we all have are being used to track viewership for certain programming
how
You're*
Uhhhh... idk Fox News i guess
we used to do this in our classrooms in the late 80's. Universal remotes hadn't been around long
We did it with palm pilots in high school, shit was great
yes HAVE TO put it on the same channel everywhere, or no impact is felt
if your phone has an IR blaster, there should be a preinstalled app to control it. usually something called "media remote" or something along those lines
not all phones have IR blasters though
>palm pilot
Fuckin hell you're old
I mean, I'm here just to recommend yiu change the Channel. Idk what you change it to. Change it to tbs for all I care. Let them watch Seinfeld reruns all day
pocket pc masterrace checking in
lol, maybe this makes me an oldfag-
we used to do this in the 90's. not sure if they're any more improved since then (would flatscreens even respond to this), but those fuckers were much more expensive and you had to order them from an actual paper catalog. good times.
This is so obvious but so genius at the same time. We need to spread this like wildfire. No effort at all, wherever you are, change it to fox news. if anyone gives you shit make a scene and waive your arms around because fake news. "I dont want my kids brainwashed by this fake news". "Why should I be subjugated to this garbage fake news". Top keks to the user who makes it on local news because of it
I didn't even have internet access and I had a buddy who would bring porn in on this. Incredible technology that should have been way more popular, wouldn't have the modern smartphone without them
Fuck yeah, it's 2004 again!
>CNN's viewership is at an all time low.
lolno, it's actually the highest it's been in years. They're the opposition news to the current presidential administration, they got the same ratings boost that Fox did in 2008. That's just how these things work.
Internally, CNN is fukt; they're all trying to get out of there like rats fleeing a sinking ship.
Then a pair of scissors will be the final solution to the CNN question.
Fuck that, throw lemon juice and salt in their wounds as they go down. CNN does not deserve a dignified descent into irrelevancy.
fuck yea we need to shut down that fucking kike network at all costs, working together we can live the dream of killing this propaganda machine!
It's about dropping their ratings which are artificially inflated by the fact they've been the universal background sound at most places with multiple tv's for over a decade
> Not using superior handspring visor
God you're pathetic
Right back at you gentlemen. Everyone should play their part to ensure truth in media.
One of the reservations staff actually said to me ' that's a strange request, we've never been asked that before.' I told her well our company might be the first but I'm sure there'll be others.
Was nice knowing six hotel companies discussed in inhouse meetings that being connected to cnn had lost them a decent amount of money.
Who do you think made you?
Touché
THIS IS HOW YOU FUCKIN DO IT M8
I work in a regus office, and they said its "company policy" to have CNN on in the offices. I told the local woman to change it because I found CNN offensive and she did, but she wouldnt put on fox. Theres bloomberg business news on all day now
If you want a place to start, call a regus office. There are thousands of them.
Do universal remotes work on airport televisions?
They buy generic TVs but sometimes the casing they put them in cover the IR sensor. So it'll vary depending on your local airport.
Also, I think it's illegal.
Weak. The product claims to be a universal remote. If it changes the input channel on the panel itself, it will display a black screen in the absence of a signal.
>what we need to know is if you are cnn affiliated. Six said yes.
Hol up. Affiliated? Not just "do you play that shit on your lobby TVs?" They actually responded to that kind of questioning and knew what you were talking about?
>illegal
The only reason why you'd get in trouble at an airport isn't because they think you're trying to detonate a bomb. That'd only happen in major airports though
Yeah, I just wouldn't do anything at JFK or LGA.
I doubt a Canadian would have a problem.
this is they type of shit that makes a difference! if everyone on here just did a little something like you we could change minds. Thank you user! godspeed
fuck you and your defeatist attitude. neck yourself and your stupid fucking flag.
> affiliated
Possibly bad choice of words on my part but you know what I mean.
how fucking new are you?
In the Southeast, I can already tell you that most TV's are turned to Fox during the day, including every branch of my regional bank.
Phones / PDA haven't come with IR since the early 2000's.
I just wanted to make sure you didn't know something we didn't about how hotels operate. That this wasn't bigger than just some dry corporate office somewhere deciding what the most mundane channel was to leave on lobby TVs...
I have a Samsung S5. Can do it with that
I used to shitpost on Sup Forums from school on my Palm Pilot using Blazer. This was in the mid-2000's.
I had one of these too. A Compaq with integrated keyboard using Windows CE. Rich elderly neighbor had it, son gave it to him as a gift, he gave up on trying to figure it out and gave it to me.
Well, because you're foreign they'll suspect something. You could always rely on the protestors to say "HE DINDU NUFFIN"
Just turn it off.
Oh. I'm posting this from the northeast so I just assumed this was everywhere
Can somebody buy me one?
professional NEET here.
It's $1.80. You just find that on the street
Ok thanks user, going on a quick change run now!
will post updates.
My phone does not have one, Im not sure why though.
Yea, we don't really take too kindly to CNN down here, especially after they moved most of their operations from Atlanta because I guess we weren't Yankee enough for them. FOX rules the day down here, by far. If not FOX, then they have CW on playing Judge Mathis / Paternity Court / Etc.
My
Oh yea it would, what model?
A well deserved (You)
ZTE zmax pro
Other ZTE phones have them but for some reason this model does not.
