I have never seen a black Antifa in my life. They’re whiter than Riverdance.

As I have always understood it, you cannot select which channels are in your package. Even worse, the crummy channels that no one watches still make money from everyone who has the package. They are essentially subsidized by the popular channels.
I believe what you CAN DO, it continually petition and pester your provider to remove that crap from your package, e.g., you at least want a choice of a package WITHOUT fake news. If enough customers did that, or dropped the entire service, they might be removed.
Depending on your cable company, you would have to drop the tier CNN is on. That would also remove most of the non-broadcast network channels you currently get.
Probably not. If you don’t like a channel just don’t watch it.
Good lord, why are you still on CABLE??? Everything you might want is on the Internet. Get a Roku and LIVE.
Cut your cable altogether. CNN pays airports to make you see their propaganda, so it’s usually included in base cable packages because it’s practically thrown in for free.
Problem is that all the major networks have niche channels that cannot make it on their own and are subsidized by the channels that do make money. So a LGBT channel or a channel about fitness is paid for by being packaged with a channel like Discovery or ESPN. This is why companies like Time Warner, Viacom, ABC/Disney are opposed to ala carte programing, it would cause them to lose tens or hundreds of millions per year.
It’s long past time for cable companies to unbundle CNN, ESPN and other leftists propaganda networks from their plans. I never watch sports, yet when I used to have a standard cable plan around $5.00 a month of that went to those commie a-holes at ESPN.
For now the only answer is to do what many of us have done - go for the cheapest local channel only cable plan which doesn’t include CNN and use the various on-line options for other programming. If you have time let your cable company know why you’ve made the change.
Unfortunately many of those such as Netflix have their own political biases.
No you have to drop everything. That’s how they make money, CNN gets 60 cents per month per subscriber whether you watch it or not.

I don’t understand why cable companies pay content providers. Should’t it be the other way?
Content providers make most of their money from ads, without cable they couldn’t get the ads to the viewers, so it’s the people sending out the ads that should be paying.
The postal service doesn’t pay companies for sending out junk mail to their customers.
On Spectrum (Time Warner) “TV Choice,” you can add CNN as one of your ten “choice” channels on top of your basic package. We blissfully omitted CNN from our service.
Their “TV Choice” package is an “over the top” service delivered via the Internet, not via the traditional cable TV set top box. We access it via the Spectrum app on our Roku.
Saves us a ton of money, too. $70 per month (first year) for 100 Mbps Interest + TV Choice.
Heres what you do.
Drop cable.
Get kodi on any device you want, firestick, roku, whatdver you decide, and get the latest addon apps to watch whatever you want, whenever you want, and pay nothing except your internet access charges you’d be paying every month anyway.
Do they still make ya pay for TV just to have the Internet?
You can program your remote to skip it.
I’m sure people are going to take this opportunity to talk about their cable bill, or lack thereof.
why cord cutters think that their utility bills are a subject of fascination to everyone else in the country is mystifying to me.
Spectrum has an unadvertised spectrum tv choice package. $21.99 a month. You pick 10 cable channels and get your locals included. Now no msnbc,cnn, or ESPN at my home
500 channels, and 460 of them are infomercials.
Quit paying people to pee on you
