MONTGOMERY, TX – While speaking at a โSave Americaโ rally in Conroe, Texas on Saturday, former President Donald Trump urged his fans in attendance to boycott AT&T in retaliation for an announcement earlier this month that telecom giant would be dropping the One America News (OAN) from their DirecTV lineup in a move that experts say could cripple the conservative, Trump-friendly network.
โIf they shut down OAN you should boycott AT&T and DirecTV. Theyโve got a big audience, itโs purely political,โ Trump said at his rally on Saturday, which was also attended by OANโs president. โAnd while youโre at it boycott Comcast and Xfinity, while youโre at it. Because theyโre no good. Theyโre just no good, and theyโre so bad for our country.โ
At the rally Trump also criticized CNN โ a favorite target of the former president โ which is owned by Time Warner, another company owned by AT&T; he also stated that OAN impending removal from DirecTV was โpurely political.โ
Trump tore into CNN calling it โcorrupt.โ
โHow bad, by the way, how bad and how fake is CNN?โ he said to cheers. โWe no longer have a free and fair pressโฆif we did all of this would end. Our corrupt media is going to destroy our country if we donโt do something about it.โ
Trump again slammed AT&T and DirectTV on Sunday via a statement released through his Save America PAC, and also tore into NBC News’ parent company Comcast โ which he referred to as โCONcastโ โ calling for a boycott of them all, which he referred to as โradical left lunatics.โ
โAT&T is closing the very popular One America News Network (OAN) because too many people are watching,โ Trump said in his statement. โThey couldnโt put up with that any longer. Conservatives / Republicans should boycott Direct TV, and while youโre at it, โConcastโsโ Xfinity as well. These are Radical Left Lunatics who are destroying our Nation!โ
