This woman was a leftist activist from the beginning. Just awful.

There you go! As more and more folks like us turn this slop off not only with their product die, but we’ll become better informed. Information is all around us, 24x7, and it’s nearly impossible to miss the important stuff.

Obvious case of misogyny—just like the election of 2016.

I trust them—to slander Trump at every turn and lie, lie, lie for every second they are on the air.

The network news broadcasts are fighting for the same market—old hippies toking in the nursing home. ;-)

I cannot remember the last time I watched an evening newscast. Must be decades now. I only watch local news for traffic and weather.

Paraphrasing Bernie Sanders, she does not earn her fair share.

Of course. How else would she have landed the cushy, high $$$$$$$ gig?

Who between the ages of 25 and 54 is watching a network news broadcast?

Unless you are captive in an airport terminal or something, I can’t name 5 people I know in that age group that watch any network news.

Also, 91 year old women like my mom who does not have cable TV.

Look at their commercials. They are all Drug ads. All are focused on the 60+year old market segment.

I like to watch the local ABC affiliate here in NH in the morning. They mostly tell local news stories, sports and weather. However, as soon as GMA comes on, I switch to Fox because I can not stand George Snufullopugus.

The MSM could reverse a lot of their ratings woes by becoming fair and balanced. But I guess they are OK to continue to lose money and be a laughing stock.

Trump’s Fake Media mantra has become a cultural icon of Ameicana.

Local news here in (more urban areas) CT is murder, robbery, etc.

It is unwatchable because they spend most of their time trying to pretend they don’t know anything about the perps. ;-)

Make sure to read the bottom third of the article . . talk about rationalizations!

And of course they had to make it a women’s issue at the end!

Meanwhile, in REAL NEWS, the latest Harris Poll of Trump’s Approval Rating, shows that 35% of AFRICAN AMERICAN MEN APPROVED of the Trump performance. And in the Louisiana Governor’s race last week 25% of AA voters voted for a Republican.

Reporting THAT NEWS would create buzz but they’re just too stupid to go there.

IF they really want to increase ratings, they should just hire bimbos like on the Hispanic TV stations.
Make them wear skin tight clothing with their boobs hanging out.

Better yet, have them start the show dressed, and remove one piece of clothing during each segment. That way people would not change the channel. They really would stick with them for BREAKING NEWS.

That is really the only reason to watch. They are nothing but readers anyway, so if they aren't eye candy, why bother watching? Here in Houston on channel 2, we have a really cute traffic girl and news reader on the morning news show.

That is what amazes me. They see that their ratings are tanking. CNN sees that Fox News constantly beats their ratings. You would think the president of the news division would get a clue that this yellow journalism just does not sell to mainstream America. They all must just live in a vacuum of the upper West Side of Manhattan.

Since I don’t watch anything, I’ve found I don’t get all involved in the ....tick tock! Bombshell! Boom!!...... drama. I’m much calmer than I used to be. When I found myself wanting to throw my shoe through the TV I turned it off. Life is much better now. 😂

In the late ‘80’s I used to turn on the national news while working out on the exercise bikes. It made for a good workout because the madder I got, the faster I turned it up. Then I was rebuked for my language....
