The question is. How do you get CNN out of the US airposts. The answer has to be that someone like FOX or Breitbart has to set up a rival airport service to break the CNN monopoly. Currently there is no other TV airport service besides CNN. But maybe someone else knows better. Maybe someone knows of a conservative airport service that needs promotion.

I brought this up to Fox News years ago and they could care less.

What’s the difference between this and Payola? When I was a youngster folks got in trouble for paying to have their records played. Here CNN is paying to have a captive audience.

> “But of course, Carlson didn’t include any of that detail.”

He doesn’t have to. We’ve all seen how CNN slips it progressive messages into everything, sports, weather, market updates, especially when transitioning from one segment to another.

CNN: “And that’s the weather wrapup for this hour. Now we hear from XYZ on how the Trump administration is denying the climate change consensus of 99.785483% of all scientists in recorded history. Over to you Chris!”

I ran across a public document a while ago from MSP airport (Minneapolis). CNN Airport pays them $200k (IIRC), and supplies the monitors and maintenance too.

This is probably a pretty standard deal at the big airports.

Also note that CNN Airport is not exactly the same as regular cable CNN.

Same with Good Morning America. All it is is background noise in airports, hotels, and restaurants. But more and more, I see people in hotels and restaurants telling staff, “Turn that sh!+ off, I’d rather watch bowling.”

I only wish what Carlson brought to our attention, somebody from the Trump administration, who watches Foxnews, maybe even Trump himself, would bring it to the forefront. Maybe even do something about it. It needs legs.

It gags me when traveling by air, to have CNN fake news at every monitor throughout every airport!

Our little airport in Idaho Falls has FOX News on in the boarding area. The only airport I have ever been to with FOX.

I always figured CNN sends people around to airports to count passengers in the boarding areas and then includes this number in their ratings. How else can they explain anyone watching their crap, other than the relatives of people on air?

There are two ways for real Conservatives to handle this problem.

1. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.redirectapps.tvkill

2. https://www.tvbgone.com/

Faux conservatives will whine about CNN on 24/7 in airports and want congress to do something.
