Fox News Nabs Historic Cable Ratings Victory

[Dos Equis]

You posted that Fox appears to be the most honest of the networks with their stories. How did you come to this conclusion? What I mean is what is your criteria for determining honesty in reporting.

All the networks have "anchors" who are basically celebrity personalities and not newscasters. Most of the content in these shows is the host's opinion. Even during interviews, they do most of the talking instead of the interviewee. I don't believe opinions are held to the same standard as reporting, in terms of honesty.

Networks have opinion shows and hard news shows.  With places like CNN and MSNBC, they are impossible to distinguish.

No surprise. I feel the majority of Americans see the B.S. that CNN is. Problem is, nobody is allowed to speak against anything libbytarded.

The hard news on CNN airs during the off hours. Late at night and on weekends. The opinion shows get Primetime. Just as the opinion shows are aired during primetime on FOX. Fox News removed one of its only nighttime hours of news coverage. The 7 p.m. hour, anchored by Martha MacCallum and called "The Story," will become "Fox News Primetime" and will be led by a "rotating" cast of opinion hosts.

Is that when they aired the Hunter Biden laptop story?

Bret Baier is hard news.  He is as straight, honest, and fair as they come when it comes to news anchors. 

Overall, the reason Fox News beats CNN and MSNBC like a drum is because Fox is just better at it.  Smarter, funnier, more honest.  (Although I frankly don't completely trust any network, including Fox.)  What's crazy is how many people on CNN and MSNBC who have shows or recurring guest roles that are just not very bright.  Or dishonest.  Or both.  Does anyone really watch Al Sharpton on MSNBC or Brian Stelter on CNN and come away thinking:  those guys are really bright?

Sharpton was pure comedy gold when he had his daily show before getting demoted.  The moron struggled to read the prompter and would sound out the words like a 1st grader just learning to read.  They had to give him the weekend gig instead of firing him or he'd probably sue for racism.

And to think Democrats actually put him on the debate state during a presidential election season.

Rev Al was  so far left  , the right blinker fell off his car.

His time on cable news has forced him to be a little less "partisan left" overall.
Mind you he's still way to the left, he's just not the same fire breather he once way.

Of course he's older and lot lighter now, so that might have mellowed him out a bit?

[IRON CROSS]

Do you people really pay $$$ to watch TV crap 

[Body-Buildah]

Libtardz are epic failures at everything they come in contact with, (like Howards Dads peentang)...

Yeah, he definitely lost a lot of weight.

Thanks for bringing up Dad, a lifelong republican.
He served in the end of WWII and in the Korean war as a naval gunners mate on an aircraft carrier.
Worked his way up from basic shipwright to structural welding supervisor at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard ( Nuclear subs).

Great father show taught me how to be a man:

At age 12 , I didn't want to keep shoveling snow in my drive way.
I said fuk this and headed back in.
I only got one step down and before the 2nd , he shoved me into the snowbank.

I dusted myself off and went back to work and glanced over to him.
He just nodded his apporval that  started again and never said a word.

You should have reported him to the child labor people.

I have never watch Sharpton or Stelter, when are they on?

Why do you think Fox News removed Martha MacCallum?

I don't know what times they are on.  I think Sharpton has been relegated to the weekend and Stelter is on every day?  Stelter's show is called "Reliable Sources," which has to be one of the funniest names ever for a show that is full of partisan BS. 

I don't know what happened to Martha MacCallum.

Cable, streaming, Netflix, Britbox, online movie rental/purchase and probably more. My Comcast/xfinity bill is over $260 a month and that's with a discount because I've been their customer since 1983.

What is funny is that I rarely turn on the TV before 7:00 PM and off at 11:00, with time out for dinner prep. I eat dinner between 8:00 and 9:00 PM. Still 3 to 4 hours is a lot of TV. I'm a big fan of documentaries....not so much sitcoms or reality shows.

I can buy pirated DVD of any US produced TV series for $ 5 per season, like The Walking Dead,Forged in Fire, ..................

Yeah, it is ridiculous. We didn't always have such an expensive package. It has evolved over the years. Also, after my wife became ill, home entertainment was a mainstay for her. I could reduce the cost by going to a lesser package. I also have hi-speed internet with unlimited data because with so many people using it we'd go over the limit. The package includes phone service for the landline. That is definitely something I could cut since none of us ever use it.
