I cannot stand any broadcast “news” anymore... Fox, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, its all garbage... other than election returns, I don’t think I turned any of these “news” programs on all year...

MSNBC mulls changes? That’s easy. Fire Maddow, Matthews, Schulz, Sharpton, and the rest of the loonies, put some conservatives on the air, and watch ratings soar.

You’re correct, of course, with CNN and MSNBC being owned by crony capitalist regime affiliates. Profit is not a requirement, offering talking points to the faithful is.

Why do I have a feeling that FOX News is the one being referred to as the "News Media" by the Sony Hackers as mentioned in the latest Drudge headline?

... Some are positing that it is CNN ..... but I suspect that it is actually either FOX or Drudge for maximum effect since they are the only different ones and thus stand out the most in the whole News Media mix.

Thats because CNN.com is seen as a “safe” online news source by people surfing from work who are cognizant that their orgs are probably tracking where they go.

It does not appear to be about the ratings, they are all about the agenda.

A fifth grader would know how to improve their ratings and they ain't dooin it.

And without being on Dish (because both parties are greedy as hell and lying their butts off about it) - interesting...

I have watched OAN. It’s not bad. They read the news to you without a bias. Seems very neutral. There are also no ads.

“If DishTV doesn’t get back Fox News soon, I’m switching to Direct.”...

One of the MAIN reason for our having DishNetwork was/is FOX news, I will give Dish until the end of January to resolve their issues with FOX, if no resolution, its cancel Dish and switch to Direct. I expect Dish will be losing numerous customers in short order and realize why FOX was so popular.

I paid my Dish bill today and included a letter that informed them of the same thing. I didn't specify a particular date but I said it would be soon. We have Dish because Direct TV did the same thing to us a few years ago. They dropped a station that MrD liked then after we dropped Direct TV about 2 months later they got the station back but we were long gone.

Microsoft, GE, Time Warner
Among others of course, plus I believe they manage to keep their ad rates high partially as an under the table payoff from other companies that want insider political credit.
These are channels for political benefits as part of supplying the quid pro quo in the Washington corporatist game.

Apple, the “faux news” mantra of the left is failing, or people do like “faux” news.

The ignorant and dumb,will continue being “Grubered” by MSNBC and CNN, and the democrats will insist that they continue their formula for “no success”. It’s more important to the left-leaning networks to advocate for their liberal friends, than to actually try to be successful.

I’m betting there is a lot more dirt to be found at the lefty media orgs. than at Fox.

I find it very hard to believe that only 1.05 million people watch FoxNews. I find problems with some of their people, but they cater to better values than the other networks. I’m sure they’re watched in the fly-over states. Their programming reflects who they think their audience is, and that screams people living in fly-over areas. I talk to people all the time that watch FoxNews and I live in Los Angeles. Very strange...
