I'm a little late to the game but, I found this station when I switched cable companies and I love it!

Anyone else have an opinion on this station? So far I like it better than Fox...well Except for Megan Kelly, she's a great azz kicker.

Hopefully it will be as good as Paul Weyrich’s network in the 90’s.

1. Let me guess, you switched to Southwestern Bell, or the equivalent Bell Telephone Company, offering U-Verse?

2. TWC in DFW area ought to put OANN on the analogue cable feed—somewhere between the Jewellery Channel (ch 78/digital) and FBN (ch 90/digital)

Channel 208 on my ATT Uverse here in Central TX. It’s OK, a little boring, don’t watch it a lot, little to no commercials, They state that it is a Conservative slanted channel.

We discovered the NewsMax channel on our DirecTV lineup, and it has some pretty good programming.

Maybe John Edwards will start up the “Two Americas” Network.

I've been trying to watch it as part of my Verizon FIOS package here in Southern Cal. My problem is I'm hearing-impaired and many of their programs don't have closed captions.

They seem to report on calamities mostly wherever: Bangladesh, Iceland, Borneo and other places I don't give much of a damn about news-wise. While the Wealth Network, a sponsor, has some good stuff it also carries programming that seems like it was produced by a George Soros organization. As for One America I'm waiting and assessing. Some of the programs seem very Millennial-oriented and not very mature in viewpoint.

CPAC (part of the ACU), is certainly not what it once was. Haven’t they been pushing amnesty the last few years?

Even so, competition is good. Probably increases the chances of a tv personality accidentally doing real journalism.

“Soon Rupert Murdoch’s behemoth won’t be the only conservative cable news station around,”

To which station does the author refer to when he says, “won’t be the only conservative cable news station”? If he is referring to Fox then I am afraid that he is sadly mistaken. Fox is anything but conservative.....maybe middle-of-the-road but certainly not conservative.

I think it’s great. Pretty decent coverage during the ferguson riots but what’s best is that you cannot predict what the commentators are going to say as you can with Fox et al. The anchors seem to have a more honest, less invested, point of view.

This may work in the short term but it will fail in the long. The next generation has abandoned cable television news in favor of online. If Republicans and Conservatives got their crap together, they would be investing in emerging markets like Youtube or creating their own online spaces.

I see this as the Republicans grasping at a withering generation with no plans for the future. Meanwhile, the democrats and progressives control gate keeper positions in almost every market. They launch advanced outreach and sophisticated social networking programs with the help of their supporters and inside contacts in film, media, and technology. They constantly seek out groups and issues they can champion and they deliver. These are areas Republicans need to focus their efforts if they want to challenge the progressive culture monolith. They need to build alliances and focus on policies that appeal to groups like fathers. Imagine a Republican party that takes fathers rights seriously and supports shared parenting and family court reform / law enforcement reform as it pertains to institutionalized gender bias. Men, as a group, are constantly under assault in our society. Imagine female Republicans taking up fathers rights as a campaign issue. The progressives wouldn’t know how to react.

That saying, hold your nose and vote Republican, it works both ways. If Republicans abandon abortion and focus on male contraception, the Catholics can just hold their nose and vote R. If drug and law enforcement reform is pursued, the prison pimps can just shut up, hold their nose, and vote R. Republicans need to move forward and embrace reality. Both our criminal and family courts are corrupt, our family culture is broken and in ruin, the drug war is lost, and our politicians need babysitting by an unbias media.

I like it because when I turn it on, it’s got the news, not a bunch of infotainment.
That said, I’ve heard it’s part of the Moonie/Washington Times group, so I must use a critical eye when watching.

The Blaze is another fine conservative network, as is Newsmax TV.

Fox opened this door; now it’s getting competition in its niche from these three and — who knows? — maybe others.

I have watched this news network for months.

Their sister station is AWE, and is also worth watching.

Very good stuff.

The news is the way CNN was when they first started. Just news.

The opinion shows are good as well.
