I used to watch Greta almost every weeknight. I made it my business to watch whenever "Our Sarah" was on, till The Fox Bosses decided to diss Sarah in order to make liberals like them (as if!). People in my household were under strict orders not to interupt me during what I called my "News Round-Up" on Sunday night with Mike Wallace. I used to listen to some Sean, some O'Reily. I never did like The Five, because a. I already see these same people during the day or overnight b. Beckle; need I say more. Beckle is one of the reasons I stopped making a point to see Hannity.
Now...I don't know. I no longer expect anything from Fox, nothing that is a true harbringer to change and improvement. We'll have to be content just to tred water till the mid-terms of 2016. I keep hoping for a conservative with 'heavy pockets' to start their own RED channel, one that is free and easy to access. Fox could use some real competition. Could be that we americans are so very fractured and balkanized as ever-changing mosaics of demographic groups, with few particular demos big enough, brand-loyal or predictable enough to be worthwhile. I sometimes feel a little guilty, as though I missed going to church.
Meanwhile, I have a 'temporary separation' with George Noory's Coast to Coast as well. I started listening to Art Bell back around 1992. I'm still interested in the Outer and Inner Spaces of existance, but Coast to Coast has become a bit too predictable. I still visit sometimes, but for now, I'm seeing other people, like Red-Eye Radio, which is political, but it's two mid-western guys with a fun delivery, and I don't yet know everything about them. Sometimes, I want to hear about Hockey, or fishing for smelt in the great lakes, or successful Charter Schools that are loudly praised and defended by concerned parents.
Call me in late 2014. I'm sure the closer we get to the mid-term election's, things will look more interesting. Maybe, Maybe a Tea/ Repub who is good, and polished and BOLD, and READY will challenge Mr. Boener and Mr. Preibus. Good fellows, both of them, but too mild mannered and easily thrown off base. Most americans are not wanting to line up and follow someone overly meek, overly compromising.
This is probably a good time for us conservatives to think locally, meaning, consider getting involved in your local City Council, visit the local Chamber of Commerce, or Traffic Court.
My dog likes Fox & Friends and Special Report.
He barks at Greta. I think it’s her squeaky voice.
Gee, why did Sarah quit fox? The same reason we all did.fox is liberal and nothing more.hannity is a broken joke and sorry to say rush has been a disappointment as well.He needed to call out these rinos and libs(romney and rove etc)and the same shit happened again.Of course they say we all need to stay in the fight(listen to me so my paycheck keeps rolling in)but what else would they say.I say screw’em.
The GOP is down for a few small repairs ...
I love these threads. “Those libruls at Fox! I won’t watch anything. In fact I haven’t seen a movie in 20 years... libruls in hollyweird....now get me my Lawrence Welk tapes to put in my VHS and Get Off My Lawn!!!
I stopped watching too. And the Megyn Kelly thing made me sick.
Our tv’s all came with these neat little buttons that turn the set off and on.
I quit watching most tv years ago, especially the talking heads.
Life is so much more relaxing these days. I get the news from FR. The rest of the time, I first turn the tv on when I go to bed each night. I watch either old movies, Home and Garden TV, or ID TV.
It’s much calmer in my house without some talking head yakking away all day long.
It’s been a few years since we had cable TV and I can honestly say, I have not missed Fox News a bit. I got tired of the same people spouting the same inside-the-beltway nonsense and treating the decline of the country as if it were some kind of game. I’m done listening to the 24 hour play by play. That said, as conservatives, our naturally independent tendencies are a weakness when it comes to organizing a united front against statism. For this reason, we need outside the beltway folks like Rush to rally us.
By the way, feel free to check my join date.
When I got my dish last year, I was quite pleased to see FOX for the first time in years. Since the election, however, I am now quite tired of it, especially seeing that fatso Beckel, and stupid Colmes.
I am still a Rush fan and get him and Savage via Dar.FM, a great service for recording any radio program for later playback. It is also recording Kook to Kook, which I find interesting at times, until they spew ET stuff.
Same here. I can't take Hannity anymore; his repetitiveness drives me nuts. Greta has gotten boring for me, and when she brings on her criminal justice "expert panel" of clowns...ugh.
I get my news here. And any other TV is pure escapism. We look forward to Sundays and "The Walking Dead."
I turn Hannity on when I get in my car to go home in the evening. If the “boot up your ass” guy sings, Hannity starts telling how humble he is, or Karl Rove is mentioned the radio is turned off. I very rarely make it from work to home with him on. My commute is about 10 minutes most days.
He needs to replaced. How Levin doesn’t include him as a “back bencher” is beyond me. A good time slot is wasted with Hannity’s RINO worship.
Drama? You want drama...Well OK, you asked for it, bub!
I will work for an America where sex workers and smelly hippies can’t destroy our beloved family pets.
My opponent is conspiring with drug companies, angry chefs and suicide bombers.
Unlike myself, my opponent wants an America where suicide bombers and Somali pirates can corrupt our delicious apple pies.

;o)
To chknlps; I don’t like that “Boot up your A—” song either, not from Hannity. I figured it was just me being a prude, but it sounds kinda vulgar in the middle of the day.
To AlexW. Kook to Kook radio! Ha, I like it. If the aluminum tin-foil hat fits, I’ll keep wearing mine too.
Stopped watching Fox when they got all breathless about BHO during his first election campaign.
Pulled the plug on the dish.
We get all our news from the internet.
It was easy. Don’t miss it at all.
Michael Savage is the best in talk radio.
He’s easy on the ears...sometimes get tired of political BS. He seems to know when to take a break from it all.
lolol!
That’s a funny site and I like your selections. This one is strange to say the least.
My opponent is palling around with porn stars, overpaid CEOs and suicide bombers.
I need to follow your lead...
Even though I still listen to Rush, for the most part, (I have no TV and it passes the time if I’m at home) his show, and others, keep the faux optimism going to keep the $ rolling in...
Noory seems like a decent fellow but he doesn’t seem too interested in the job. He’s content to sit back tune out and let a guest just go on and on.
Bell with that gothic voice of his could take nothing and turn it into something. You could never tell if he was buying the rot or he was winking at you.
They must be personal friends. Levin strikes me as someone who would be a loyal friend to the end. I wouldn't want him as an enemy though.
In the technology sector, never diversify pro rata estimated losses.
You can thank me later.
