Seriously, what’s gone wrong with The Federalist? They were getting really good, now everybody over there seems to be taking stupid pills.
Actually lately I been watching Al Jazeera America personally than Fox or CNN interinoal
Today I been turning into to BBC world news they been having coverage on French attack
How about everyone everywhere just stop watching cable news, forever.
They also have too many females. I like listening to a male voice - why can't we have more of them?
um... what??!
‘CNN ran a feature about the ten biggest stories of 2014, and didnt even mention the midterm elections. Like it never even happened.’
Congress is behaving this same way, by the way.
How can Dish exact an early out penalty if they breach the contract by not having the station promised?
If I had opted in for Dish in the past two years during which they sent me a lot of mailers, I’d have gotten it for Fox and a couple - a couple - of other stations.
Our family watches TV together, we have one tv. We watch red eye, (fast forwarding), and some of the evening shows. a little network tv - jeopardy, and some superhero things.
If I’m not getting fox, what am I paying a hundred per month for?
I think people don’t watch their money, nor do they protect it.
Dish could hold me to a contract?
That’s too powerful
I’d think about a class action
Anybody who wants to switch from Dish to Direct give me a call and help feed a kid in America.
Pray America wakes up
Just “now” discovering the other news outlets are one-sided??
I was a huge news junkie for decades. Started in my early teen years. I still have some VHS recordings I made in the 1980s from CNN. All sorts of things, including bits on the Reagan-Mondale race. And when FoxNews started around 1996, it was practically the default position on my tv-set, and stayed that way for years.
But I don’t know. The recent years of watching the GOP-E backstab Palin, seeing FoxNews morph into the Karl Rove beltway establishment network, and going all agog over Mitt Romney, with various talking-heads pushing insanity from amnesty to fag-marriage... my thirty-plus year long interest in watching the news and its coverage of the political scene just literally DIED. Dead as a doornail. Nowadays, even the mere thought of turning on FoxNews, much less the cretinous MSNBC or CNN, just makes me shudder with revulsion. I’ll go a full month without watching a single minute of news. I no longer even make a point to tune in appearances of Palin or Cruz, like I used to.
In a way, I guess I just no longer feel invested in what becomes of the country as a whole. That’s probably the root cause.
This writer does not seem especially bright. Did he not already know that about O’Reilly and Hannity? My favorite FOX News program is Special Report. I would like to watch “The Five” more, but Beckel makes me too angry. Redeye used to be pretty funny, but I’m tired of leftie Andy Levy claiming to be a “Libertarian”. Why do so many leftists call themselves “Libertarians”?
Fox will return. At least Dish tries to negotiate for better prices instead of bending over for Fox. Though we went without TCM on Dish and when it came back my bill went up $5.
I toyed with going to Direct TV but was afraid I would switch and then Direct TV would do the same thing. Also I can’t get The Blaze on Direct TV.
I still miss N.E.T. The real Conservative Television Network. Too bad Weyrich couldn’t get the sponsorship needed to make it a success. I’d much rather pay for a N.E.T. type network than any news network satellite or cable TV offers today.
No excrement Mr. Holmes.
The funny thing is most conservatives don’t even like or watch FOX News yet that’s the running narrative from the left. They think we take that network for gospel when we all know it’s Establishment TV. Personally, I like BBC News and the Russian news network RT. They do a far better job of reporting the news than any American network does these days.
I learned that insipid mortgage commercials interspersed with nothing but gary condit updates told me nothing about the state of the world.
Memory Hole.
I can agree with him on the "blowhard" but without totally understand his definition of "strident," I'm hard pressed to understand his reasoning there.
I find someone speaking for the Federalist, who can't understand the line-up on a satellite dish a bit "low information" to be taken seriously.
I haven’t watched cable news for nearly two years. I get all of my news from the internet or radio.
I’ve turned increasingly apathetic and cynical over time, so I really don’t give a damn about it all much anymore. The bought-off crooked bastards are gonna do what they are gonna do. (see yesterday’s House Speaker election as the perfect example)
I just turned all the crap off and decided to enjoy life as much as I can. To think I used to follow this stuff like a cliffhanger movie just kills me. That’s time out of my lide I’ll never get back. lol
I have Dish.
It’s actually been refreshing to have a break from the Karl Rove channel’s endless campaigning for Jeb Bush.
