No one needs to watch the news in order to know that Biden is a senile potato and Harris is a whore who laughs like a hyena in order to deflect serious questions.

We already know about Wuhan Flu and we’re burned out on it.

Yes, we’ve also heard about global warming, climate change, and whatever the hell they’re calling it this week.

No, most of us don’t care to have Critical Race Theory shoved down our throats every time we turn on the TV...so we don’t turn on the TV.

Lots of us are also sick of the pedantic and offensive advertising that carries a pro-Marxist agenda along with their capitalist message of ‘buy our product’.

So why bother watching?

This past February my wife and I ended our DISH Network subscription because I could no longer stomach paying to have offensive crap sent to my house.

Back in April I informed my long time Volvo car dealer (30 years) that unless CNN was taken off the TV in their waiting room I’d be taking my business elsewhere. Their TV is now set to a home and garden channel. Apparently I wasn’t the only person to feel this way.

FOX News had best pay attention and purge the remaining Marxists from their programs and administration or else they’ll lose whatever viewers they have left.

I stopped watching almost all political news after last years debacle, but you cannot compare an election year to the year after and get a true reading.

If Trump had not been cheated, the ratings would still be down, but just not as much.

Ratings go way up during an election year because of interest in the candidates.

I don’t watch Fox either, but I have neighbors that watch network news. They have been taught to hate Trump on NBC, ABC, and CBS nightly news. Millions are watching news on those channels.
