No one needs a bunch of liberal propagandists lying to them every day.
“And typically paying for the privilege! The media-induced stupor that this nation has suffered is to me inexplicable in hindsight. Cut the cable, go to streaming. There are fine new widescreen tv monitors with software built in to work with Netflix, Hulu, Roku, et al. Be done with them. Let them die like the dinosaurs they are. Media Darwin Award time, after this past year, 2016. We now know what they are beyond a shadow of a doubt. Time to say a final farewell.”
We hosted our annual New Year’s Party last night with our long time conservative friends. We celebrated the New Year on EST. Our friends noticed our new Vizio smart tv, the roku box and the WIFi booster under the tv.
I told them that we are cutting the cable this month and just going to streaming non news programs.
Most of these friends are in their 70 to 80’s and have a fear of trying something new like that. However, they want to stop watching FAUX and ABCNNBCBS.
My non techie wife told them they don’t need any fancy gear to do that. They can just decide not to watch Faux, ABCNNBCBS and the NFL and make that a New Year’s resolution.
She told them, we stopped watching our local tv news after the election due to their constant Trump attacks and pushing the illegal agendas.
She suggested that they start today. Then, they can get a younger relative to help them cut the cable and teach them how stream, Roku and Sling.
We were surprised how stunned, these intelligent/conservative good friends were with my wife’s simple Nancy Reagan approach, “Don’t
watch Faux, ABCNNBCBS and the NFL!” No high tech training, skills or equipment needed.
Just say NO!
Worked for us. I figured, first cut cable then everything else will simply fall into place, and it has.
I am fine with the content we have and the price we now pay ($24/month).
I recommend you subscribe to One America News on the Roku, you will never miss decent, real news.
