You forgot doctors’ offices. I cringe at having to be a captive audience for CNN fake news while waiting to see a doctor.
Same here. Given the crowd at my parents’ doctors office, I dare not ask for a change.
Every Doctors office I’ve been to has Fox news on.
Last July I flew from Nashville to LAX. To the best of my recollection CNN was not shown in the Nashville airport. I’d like to say they were tuned to Fox, but I was too shocked with delight to remember which news network was shown.
My wife and I drive between Huntsville, AL and Houston often. I can’t remember ever seeing CNN at any of the fast food joints (usually McD) we stopped at along the way over the last 5 years.
With the changing face of entertainment in the home/mobile device delivery where a take it or leave it package might be fading to an ala carte menu, CNN may just be the walking dead. Poor Manderson.

Sorry.
Only members of the Inner Party can turn off the telescreen.
"As O’Brien passed the telescreen a thought seemed to strike him. He stopped, turned aside and pressed a switch on the wall. There was a sharp snap. The voice had stopped. Julia uttered a tiny sound, a sort of squeak of surprise. Even in the midst of his panic, Winston was too much taken aback to be able to hold his tongue. ‘You can turn it off!’ he said. ‘Yes,’ said O’Brien, ‘we can turn it off. We have that privilege.’"

One advantage of having hearing aids - - - take em out or turn em off - - - works equally well when HRC comes on the Telly -
At my wife’s provider the TVs are on cooking shows. It varies at the VA I go to but it’s seldom cable “news”. Everywhere I go where it is cable news most people ignore it.
