Treatment of Ben: fair, unfair or about right?

CNN is in scandal hell right now, check it out if you don’t believe me.

Fox news, not my favorite, but pretty decent folk currently. Not a big fan of Hannity, but Fox and Friends in the morning not bad.

I don’t care for Juan Williams or Greg Gutfield, but the rest are decent.

I didn’t care for Tucker at first but from what I hear he has developed quite the following.

When was the last time you watched it?

To say the entire lineup are scumbags doesn’t seem accurate and maybe a bit harsh.

We will just have to agree to disagree on news outlets.

Really any news agency (CNN's has had some significant problems with employee morality recently)

That's quite the understatement.

I dont know why you keep bringing up CNN, Im talking about Fox, it is awful when it comes to actual news, it is chalked full of far right wing nuttery and conspiracy BS. The fact that they lead in ratings only shows what huge scumbags they are, putting out the crap they do to that big of an audience is beyond irresponsible. Attack CNN untill you are blue in the face wont bother me, but Fox is by far the worst thing I have ever seen in news.

Litmus test - if you watch CNN or MSNBC, you probably don't know this guys exists, and if you do, it's because he's been pegged as a Russian Agent or The New Face of White Supremacy.

And remember, all print and TV media in his country is owned by a handful of corporations, and their talking points are distributed down to the local level.

Are you talking about Fox sports? Are you saying Aikman, Howie Long, Michael Strahan, etc., are scumbags?

In case you didn't know it, Fox sports is in a different division of the corporation than Fox News.

Isn't Fox Sports owned by Disney? Or did they just buy the movie studio?

I'm not sure about 20th Century Fox but Disney does own The Simpsons now. Disney also owns Marvel, Star Wars, ESPN, ABC, the list goes on. Soon there will be like 4 or 5 corporations that own everything in this country.

My question is who owns Cleatus the football robot, is it still Fox Sports? Thanks for that, Fox Sports.

Thanks.

I knew that they bought parts of Fox. And that they didn't buy the news part of Fox. But I didn't know if they bought the sports part. I don't think so, but not sure.

I rarely watch US news services any more. There are too many agendas from all sides. It's joined the vast wasteland of 'entertainment' rather than informed journalism. I prefer Reuters as a more independent news source. At least they have little reason for US political bias.

Still plenty of good journalism out there, unfortunately it get drowned out by the nuts on tv, you know its a problem when the people with highest ratings calling themselves news are Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity.

Hilarious that progressives stomp and kick like children throwing a tantrum when their decades long stranglehold on news is threatened by ONE channel, and of course call for censorship.

Hell, Joe Rogan gets a bigger daily audience than all CNN and MSNBC shows combined.

You're losing.

yes.. those are entertainers not news journalist.

What is scary is people actually brag about cable news ratings when its like 2.5 mill per night. Those aren’t huge numbers.

What’s frustrating though is Americans are really blinded by these news stations.

losing what?

What makes you think someone is
a progressive? Is it because they aren’t fans of Fox News?

and Joe Rogan? lmao.. that dude is nothing w he just found a nice niche of bros looking for a new hero.

While I’m certainly not a fan of Fox News I think these stations have turned adults into petty children. Most of these shock jocks are just entertainers who are playing the audience and don’t believe half the stuff they peddle to the masses.

It's funny that people think CNN, MSNBC, etc. are actually progressive when they actively torpedo'ed the one progressive candidate who was in the lead during the primary in favor of one of the worst politicians ever in Biden. They did the same thing years ago with Howard Dean. Who can forget Chris Matthews bizarrely freaking out over Sanders on live television. All these media outlets are corporate owned and act accordingly.

Bernie is not progressive, he's an avowed socialist. Their support for crazy CRT and BLM policies delineate them from classical liberals, who have had enough of that bull****.
