I have 3 monitors in an office in close proximity to each other and they all are having an issue with degaussing. I made sure there were no magnetic interferences (ie) speakers, phones or other equipment near the monitors.

I unplugged a very old monitor that was on one of the PC's and guess what? The other monitors were fine. Is it possible for a monitor that is going bad to emit an electo-magnetic field that would affect the other 2 monitors?
 
if its malfunctioning yes. its possbile for any electronic device to recieve interference as per FCC specifications. so if a malfunctioning monitor (as in the power or tube is on the fritz) is in the close vincity if other healthy monitors, it is possible that it can affect the others.
