“The Murdoch brothers are real sharp tycoons:

Bringing back Bob Beckle
Booting Roger Ailes
Hiring Marie Harf
Running Bill O’Reilly off

Maybe they should hire Chelsea Clinton.
Or better yet - Hillary Clinton.
Or even better, Moochie Obama.

LOL!

Very sad to see BOR’s departure.

What I love on Fox is Brent Baier (sp?) and Greg Gutfeld.

Brett drinks Hume’s bath water. Gutfeld sniffs Shemps sloppy farts and gets all exited by them.

How anyone could like either one of them is beyond me.

Old man Murdock could care less. After making his millions, turned it over to his carefree sons and proceeded to have a grand old time in his new marriage with Jerry Hall (Mick Jagger’s ex-’baby mama’) FNC = entirely too many villains to be subjected to them all. Shouting “UNCLE!”, I gave up.

I think OAN fits your definition of a news network.
And guess what? It’ll bore you to tears.

We may never know how much of the harassment angle is true. Most of the women complained after they didn’t get what they wanted, and Megan seemed to help instigate the fleecing.

I agree with you. 0AN is very boring after an hour. It is dry and not entertaining. They need to add some spice somehow. At least Fox makes it entertaining sometimes.
Sheep is downright horrible and the biggest mistake was putting the Five on at nine. I hate Dana Perino, Juan Williams and Bob Becker. 3 out of 5 is not fair and balanced.
I think one reason we like Lou Dobbs is that he doesn’t have those arguments going on. He doesn’t bring one from the left and one from the right and let them go at itI and talk over each other, which is so annoying on other programs.

I’ve heard that cry for years and it just isn’t true.
People want to hear their slant sewn into their news.

Bret Baier has contempt for President Trump.

I’ve lost all respect for Bret Baier.

Clearly Murdock’s liberal kids have been very busy lately redefining the message to conform more closely to CNN and the other globalist disinformation organizations Other than Hannity, Tucker Carlson & Watter’s World, the rest of FAUX NEWS is nauseatingly neutral & not worth watching....Lately, I’ve been turning the set off more & more.

There are no “news” channels. There are only “news commentary” channels.

How true. Turn it on and it's 95% blathering about the latest fake news. If you actually want to see any news about the world outside of DC and NYC you have to watch BBC or RT. Yeah they have their own bias, but at least they have real reporters filming real stuff that's happening around the world. These so called news channels have no reporters anyplace, and can only do breaing stories in the USA because their local affiliates do.

How do you create a million dollar business? Start with a multi-billion dollar business and put the Murdoch boys in charge. Whose idea was it to follow the business model of their weakest competitor?
