Nothing - they need to be dead to all of you. And they need to be dead to anyone who considers themselves Chiefs fans.

I cannot for the life of me understand how anybody on this board, a board dedicated to the Chiefs, can comfortably maintain even a passing associating with the Kansas City Star.

OR we can continually email and twitter their ass calling them liars,fake news reporters and ****ing assholes.

Tripling down. The thinner the reed got, the tighter they clutched it, waving it ever more furiously.

The main thing is to eliminate the value that paper has for advertisers. It starts with subscriptions. Then you starve them of clicks and views. Then you take all the papers out of the street boxes (do they still have those?) and throw them in the trash.

Given the state of their business, they can't have a lot of runway left.

You realize they don't care, right?

That's the problem. They think you're a mindless rube. A dipshit midwestern wife-beater who sits at home surrounded by empty beer cans and kicks your pets/children/women when you run out of Busch heavy.

They get your emails and laugh at you. If anything has become apparent here it's that they WANT your anger. When they get it, they believe they're right. It's akin to me scolding my child and she just sluffs it off; makes me pretty sure I didn't do it right. Your reaction tells them that they're striking the right nerve.

The only thing that will make a difference to these wannabe cosmopolitan pricks is silence.

Give them !@#$ing nothing.

Sure, for the immediate future you can spar with them a bit so long as you do so publicly in a way that may encourage others to follow suit. And generally in a productive manner (don't just call Pryor a fatshit and Rosen a outstanding citizen, for instance).

But the long-game here is clear. We all have to cut the cord with these ****ing hacks.

I don't trust these white devils to contain themselves. We're not well known for our impulse control 'round these parts...

It's just unbelievably galling. They're not even trolling - they're just flat out antagonizing now. I can't wrap my head around it.

With an ad-blocker on, do the page views do anything for them? They need subscriptions, and I'm pretty confident that these social justice op/eds will cost them more subscriptions than they will generate. I'm not sure it's even about page views -- these addicts care more about virtue signaling than paper's bottom line.

I really hope the Chiefs deny access to the Star this year. When these dumb****s show up to camp- point- there is the bleachers- no interviews!

What Chief player or coach would even want to talk to them after the hit job they did on Reek?

Yup. I'm generally not a "Don't click" guy, as i enjoy hating people for what they write.

But in this case, they're doing it simply for the clicks. Nope. Not clicking that shit.

They don't even deserve a hate read.

I think the 'unfollow' threat is the most toothless and stupid thing in the history of things.

Still did it. Won't even follow any Star associated writers anymore.

They don't exist as far as I'm concerned. This is just an unprecedented attack by this paper.

Yeah if people could stop posting links to Brooke's shitty articles and Whorio podcast, that would be great.

The Star is dead to me. In my mind, I will assume that they went out of business on July 19, 2019. That's probably only a couple of years off anyway.

Local podunk paper tries to ruin a successful black man.

ChiefsPlanet membership is probably an infinitesimally small percentage of their readership.

The key to their destruction is the demise of their subscriber base. No subs ... no ad revenue. No ad revenue ... no Star. Therefore, what we need is a plan to convince half of their paper and digital subs to cancel.

Maybe we need to fly another airplane over 1 Arrowhead Drive calling for the Chiefs to blacklist the Star. That might help. Or maybe we could organize a gofundme drive in which we donate money to Mahomes' foundation for each Star cancellation receipt.

The point is, we can have no significant effect on the Star by ourselves. We do not have the Powah. Given that sad fact, we need to be creative.

(And not forget that rat nest at KCTV5, by the way.)

I'm down for a banner donation or like cause.

And I'm betting security won't be chasing folks around the stadium for handing out flyers this time either....

There really should be some righteous anger from the fanbase for this shit...
