Some calling for a boycott
I want to take the time to say everyone and I mean everyone should boycott Peacock. We cannot support this Streaming Service! Casey Anthony, the woman who got away with killing her baby is now “telling her side” through a new Doc. WE DON’T CARE AND I DO NOT SUPPORT MURDERERS!
