Definitely more truthful than “fair and balanced”.

Their new motto is, “We’re done with conservative news, making money, and having high ratings. If we preach the liberal line, we will get invited to cocktail parties with trendy people, which is worth billions of dollars to us, even if nobody watches us anymore.”

Why is any Conservative watching FOX now?

Hannity and Lou Dobbs. Fox & Friends are still fairly sane but likely not for long.

Most Watched, Most Trusted.”

With their ratings drop, maybe they can use "Somewhat watched, somewhat trusted".

hopefully someone will come along to fill the void they left for conservatives who like actual news.

One America News (OAN) - you won't regret it.

“The shift has nothing to do with programming or editorial decisions,” the network said in a statement.

Reminder, show your wife this post tonight. Fox is dead to us, except for Tucker. Also, Except for Fox Business. Lou Dobbs has great panelists, everyday.

Did anyone ever trust Chris Matthew’s imitation of a conservative?

That was the first step towards Evil.

It is deceptive advertising to call it
“Most Watched, Most Trusted.” It is neither.

Most days I have OAN on one TV and sometimes FOX, most times something else, on the other TV.

OAN, still emerging, does not yet have FOX’s breadth and depth, but it’s getting there. And most of the anchors and reporters, as in the picture you provided, really are easy on the eyes!

For the moment, OAN offers itself as a viable news alternative, but I look forward to the day when it is a lot more than just “viable”!

CA....

I liked FNC better when their motto was “We Report. You Decide.”


Absolutely agree!! I can catch OANN on the internet sometimes...it reminds me of Fox in the early days.
