Woke news broadcaster MSNBC lost 33 percent of its primetime viewers during its coverage of the Israel Hamas war.

The outlet's viewer figures were down 24 percent overall for the four days between October 7 and 10 which saw the outbreak of war between Israel and Hamas terrorists.

By comparison the shocking events saw a leap in Fox News's audience, up 42 percent, and in CNN's coverage, which saw a 17 percent rise in viewers.

I’ve been watching CNN and the BBC lately, I’m up very early like 3am in the morning most days, they are the only news outlets with live news, if you know they are basically liberal you get up to date news that’s not terrible.

The BBC in particular is very liberal, but they do show a lot more international news than we get from CNN, Fox, MSNBC, etc...

Regarding the RUS-UKR War,on MSNBC “Russian aggression or invasion” is used almost constantly.

BUT..they are equating Israel with the Palistenians and Hamas.

[Moorings]

Yeah, the very “smart” and woke people at MSDNC want to equate the people who initiated an attack, raped women and girls, beheaded and murdered babies and children, took civilian hostages of all ages, with the people who responded to this attack and there was collateral damage while the targeted the terrorists.

33% of zero is still zero.

As President Trump noted, say what you want - Israel was not ready.

Of course, if you wanted them to attack because you've got a million people with guns and you're gonna blast the hell out of them, then you do exactly...but they didn't have that.

I started watching Al-jazerra on Saturday. Mostly because they actually had correspondents on the ground in Israel, Gaza and the West Bank. I have actually found that their broadcasts were petty even handed.

I also started watching clips from WIOW (India News station).
I have to turn on the subtitles though because it is hard to understand their English accent.

FYI, the English version of Al-Jezzera is mostly British broadcasters. So, they are much easier to understand than the WIOW people.

If you know what you’re watching some of these foreign networks do a better job than the MSM in this country, even if you watch both at least you can compare the two

[moovova]

I watch none of them anymore.
