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

This is actually a good idea, I'm surprised no one has proposed it before.
Cooper Wood
HA! Do it.
Hunter Lewis
Good idea! Op was not a faggot today. Have a bump.
David Cruz
A good phone will do this.
Benjamin Johnson
You do realize that ratings are calculated based on Nielsen households, right? Changing those channels won't matter.
David Thomas
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.

>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.
Jason Ortiz
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.

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?
Andrew Campbell
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.
Blake Turner
Get a decent phone with ir blaster built in and free app No excuse for not having one Even
Brandon Robinson
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
Brayden Jackson
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.
James Clark
don't you have to program this shit to a specific TV?
Jeremiah Garcia
Bump
Nathan Lopez
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.
John Gutierrez
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
Robert Cook
Hello /biz/ doing fine I see!
Gabriel Sanders
They don't. It's just to drop viewership
Carter Perry
I'm saying change the channel where it's been on for the past 5 fucking years not change anyone's opinion
Oliver Long
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?
Matthew Ward
Yeah it's actually kinda simple. You just hold down the mute button until the tv Is muted
Ryder Turner
I know you're a Slav but in America $1.80 isn't that big of a deal

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.
Henry Reed
>not doing this already for years with your phone Little late to the party there user
Aaron Barnes
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
Samuel Cruz
What channel do we change it to when everything on tv is shit?
Jordan Stewart
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
John Russell
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
Owen Phillips
how
Jason Hill
You're*
Caleb Edwards
Uhhhh... idk Fox News i guess
Jaxson King
we used to do this in our classrooms in the late 80's. Universal remotes hadn't been around long
Cooper Lewis
We did it with palm pilots in high school, shit was great
Lincoln Ross
yes HAVE TO put it on the same channel everywhere, or no impact is felt
Cooper Ward
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
Hudson Bennett
>palm pilot Fuckin hell you're old
Austin Evans
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
Aaron Jenkins

Brody Stewart
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.
Brayden Barnes
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
Samuel Hernandez
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
Brody Nguyen
Fuck yeah, it's 2004 again!
Mason Rivera
>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.
Parker Walker
Then a pair of scissors will be the final solution to the CNN question.
Ryan Cooper
Fuck that, throw lemon juice and salt in their wounds as they go down. CNN does not deserve a dignified descent into irrelevancy.
Michael Sullivan
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!
Caleb Evans
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
Colton Robinson
> Not using superior handspring visor God you're pathetic
Gavin Morales
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.
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.
Anthony Thomas
Do universal remotes work on airport televisions?
Charles Butler
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.
Nathaniel Parker
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.
Oliver Rivera
>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?
Jack Long
>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
Oliver Allen
Yeah, I just wouldn't do anything at JFK or LGA. I doubt a Canadian would have a problem.
Brandon Cook
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
Samuel Wright
fuck you and your defeatist attitude. neck yourself and your stupid fucking flag.
Luke Lopez
> affiliated Possibly bad choice of words on my part but you know what I mean.
Jayden Davis
how fucking new are you?
Xavier Hall
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.
Jaxson Sanders
Phones / PDA haven't come with IR since the early 2000's.
Christopher Reyes
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...
Robert Smith
I have a Samsung S5. Can do it with that
Elijah Miller
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.
Jace Wilson
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.

Can somebody buy me one?

It's $1.80. You just find that on the street
Hunter Watson
Ok thanks user, going on a quick change run now! will post updates.
Chase Richardson
My phone does not have one, Im not sure why though.
Sebastian Cook
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.
