BBC is so bad that the Royal Navy stopped making it available on warships during a recent war, because it was so demoralizing. I don’t know is there is a ‘left of CNN’ because I haven’t watched it in many years, but if there is a ‘left of CNN,’ the BBC is there.

I take my Mom to many Dr. Offices, HGTV is on 7 out of 8, one Dr office had ABC or something, in the middle of the afternoon was a soap opera - it showed two dudes kissing - my Mom said: “Soap operas have changed.”

CNN stands for “Cable News Network”. It’s where it started out as being only on cable and has stayed on cable, just about all of them. Then satellite also. My point is, CNN is included in just about every package and is paid a certain amount of money for each subscriber. That equates to lots of money.

It’s part of the cable/satellite ripoff where you get to pay 80 bucks a month for 200 channels and only watch 10 or less.

We stopped that crap years ago and only stream what we want to watch and pay for only what we watch.

“...my Mom said: “Soap operas have changed.”

Understatement of the year.

Never watched any of them - not even at gunpoint - so I can’t comment firsthand.

Because air travel sucks and they want it to suck even more.

I fly frequently. I’ve seen Fox in some eateries (most show sports), but not on the TV screens at gates (captive audiences). Don’t recall ever seeing Fox at a gate.
