Oh the horror! The absolute HORROR!!! A DUmmie goes into a Wendy's and what should be playing on the big screen TV but Fox News. His tiny brain must suffer from the "infection." Even worse, DUmmie peace13 knows that other customers are being exposed to information not approved by the liberal party line spouted by the other networks as you can see in this THREAD, "Local Wendy's just installed a big screen TV!" So let us know watch the DUmmie outrage over contrary political views being permitted in a public restaurant in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, continuing with his Django Rhinehart typing, is in the [brackets]:
Local Wendy's just installed a big screen TV!
[Now tell us the horror story.]
Today we went to our local Wendy's and lo and behold they have installed a big screen TV. We asked the manager if she would please change the channel and she said that they had tried that and it only shows black on other stations. Faux News there, as big as life. Seven months before a big election and they plunk that thing in the dining room.
[Yeah, that one big screen TV showing Fox News could well swing the outcome of the election.]
I called the operating manager and l let him know that I was upset about the addition and he asked me what I had against *ox News. I let him know that it wasn't news and that we found it offensive. He asked what channel I would like to see and I let him know that I wouldn't direct anyone to a particular station but if they were insistent on showing TV, the weather channel might be as useful as any this time of year.
[Did the manager also ask if you're off your meds?]
He said that he would pass the info to the owners and I let him know that we would be back next week and if *ox was still on that would be it for us. Our other peace nic friends were in there and they too were disgusted. If the regulars quit coming maybe it will mean something. This is sad because up until now the restaurant had been a neighborhood gathering place.
[Maybe that could please you by broadcasting Al Jazeera. And now on to the other outraged DUmmies...]
Our local hospital has Fox on the tv in the waiting room. Completely empty room on the ICU floor, tv blaring. I had to be in that room while a family member was being seen in ICU. I turned it to Nat Geo channel, turned volume down. After a few minutes someone else came into the waiting room and stared at the tube, then asked if I minded if they changed the channel. I told them only hospital staff were allowed to touch it.
[Good job. You LIED to prevent the possibility of anybody else watching FOX News.]
i remember Fox was on at Macy's just outside the fitting rooms where people can wait
[There goes the election!]
I bet you can find someplace that serves real food with no TV.
[Check your local DUmpster.]
There are two McDonald's in the town I live in and both refuse to play anything but Fox News. I know because I have asked and been told that is what the franchise owner wants broadcast. It was the same in the gastroenterologist office I used to go to. I say exercise your right to not be propagandized. Get up, tell them why and go somewhere else.
[Maybe these outlets know that FOX News is by far the most popular cable news channel and want to make available what their customers want to see. Or do you think they should be paying Current TV?]
I find it truly amazing that people have become so impressionable that merely having a news report from an unfavorable source during the time that it takes to consume a hamburger is of such a danger that they cannot be subjected to it without having to protest and raise fuss. Eat at home lest ye be led astray.
[LOUSY FREEPER TROLL!!!]
This is sad because up until now the restaurant had been a neighborhood gathering place.Oh great. A bunch of losers who order a small Coke then sit there for hours taking up space while spending squat.
I'm sure the Owner will be pleased to see all you dead beats go gather in the neighborhood Park instead. You can talk to the squirrels and look at all the pretty butterflies while waiting for all your peace nic friends.
And hopefully sit in piles of Goose poop while getting crapped on by pigeons. 
It’s it funny how liberals fear being exposed to Fox like movie vampires fear holy water and sunlight.
lol.
The daily insanity of these people is so entertaining I wish there was a way to get this stuff in the MSM, lol. As if they’d ever let that happen.
“I only regret that we don’t have a Tommy’s Burger, with or without FOX News, around here.”
Beverly and Rampart is and will forever be the Only Tommy Burgers. Dammit, now I’m hungry and LA is 500 miles away.
I fly all the time, and CNN seems to be the most common at airports. But, it doesn’t matter as I simply read FR on my phone.
Even if they had Current TV on all the televisions, it would not matter, as I would just ignore it...guess that is another difference between liberals and conservatives.
There were one or two screens that had cnn, but the rest were Fox. This was in AZ, and Austin. Austin had cnn in the main lobby.
The mere fact that those idiots can’t stand to hear an opposing viewpoint says it all. So Fox News is lying they say but Keith Oberman, Ricky Maddow, and Bill Maher are true truth tellers. These people must live miserable lives with all the hate they carry around daily.
Did it ever occur to you that perhaps they were trying to send you a subtle clue? No, I guess it didn't..
Maybe if they showed FOX News in the ER waiting rooms the illegals and non-employed basement dwellers would quit coming?
Nah, they love that free stuff.
I do miss them -- mine was the one in The Valley at Vanowen near Van Nuys.
I couldn't believe my luck when I found out one of the few In'N'Outs outside of California is a mile or so away (in Irving).
Well, here's something to get us all misty-eyed </thread drift>:
“I’ve never been in an airport that plays anything other than CNN”
__________________________________________
That is where CNN got its start,
They supplied the cable and the TVs to all airports,
for free, I think.
I doubt that the sets even have a channel selector.
Frankly, I find FOX too liberal for me.
One look at that lardo Beckel and fruity Colmes makes me want to puke. I think they have a few leftist nags, too.
My satellite dish does not have CNN, hahaha...only FOX.
‘Even if they had Current TV on all the televisions...’
One thing....i do kind of like on current tv, is that miller gal ...she’s telecast every weekday morning and has actually shown herself to be a comic genius, mostly by accident, i think.....anyway, she’s has consistently mastered a very difficult comedic feat..... for 3 solid hours the show becomes a parody on a parody... that, as far as i’m concerned is emmy award winning talent ladies n germs.......
Considering that "No Peace!"nics tend to be moochers I have to wonder if this is the owners equivalent of playing Beethoven in the subways to discourage thuggish louts from loitering.
I like Wendy's. Years ago when I was a college student on a slender budget the staff would give me a free cup of hot water so I could make a cup of tea to go with my cup of chili. When they had a job opening the manager asked me if I wanted it and I just about kissed him.
Jobs were hard to find with about five students looking for work for every job opening.
I can still make a mean pot of chili!
My office’s lunchroom has the commie news network going full time all day, all the dumbass libs eat lunch in there and stare at it like zombies. It doesn’t get any other channel. I figure its because the head cheese is a lib from new york and that is all he will allow.
Bit of an assumption, there.
CNN, The Station for Fellow Travelers (TM)
“This is sad because up until now the restaurant had been a neighborhood gathering place.”
This must be a really crappy neighborhood. Probably infested with DUmmies that aren’t willing to risk their own money and sweat to create a nice gathering place.
Their lucky, If I owned a place I’d be playing Rush, Levin and Dave Ramsey shows on a continual loop.
I have never been in a large airport with anything but CNN; however, in smaller puddle-jumper commuter airports I occasionally find Fox...Idaho Falls, Idaho is one.
That, actually, is a fair point.
Blind Squirrel, Stopped Clock, etc etc etc, I suppose.
