FOX news tops CNN and MSNBC combined.
That’s COMBINED.
FOX viewership is up 25% from a year ago —CNN has collapsed even below the Hallmark and cartoon channel......
I don't like either channel. Honestly, I would actually pay good money for a news channel that created shows with real conversations between members of both parties. That way we can maybe get some dialogue going and perhaps each side could get a better understanding of where the other is coming from on various topics.
Right now both FOX and CNN offer up echo chambers. If you watch Hannity, he's going to have right wing guests on who agree with him. Ditto for anyone from CNN. Or they follow the old Bill O'Reilly tactic of bringing on a opposing view point and then proceed to shouting the guy down and then claiming victory. It's boring and frankly useless. All that does is preach to the choir on each side leaving us more divided than ever.
Of course, it would require that there be a person from each party brave enough, and willing to engage in actual discussion and not just repeat the lines fed to them by the RNC/DNC. Fat chance of that happening.
This.

1/3 Commercials
1/3 "Talking Head" political blowhards just spouting their OPINIONS as FACTS .
1/3 The same "Top" stories over and over and over again every 1/2 hour.
Why are people so compelled to sit in front of their televisions and have someone else’s opinions fed to them in a constant stream?
Guess that's what people who watch Fox like about Sean Hannity. Or those who listen to Rush like about him. Constant opinions all the time. But it's just a bad thing if it's CNN doing it? There's nothing wrong with opinions, and I don't know of one time when CNN reported an opinion as a fact.
lol so who watches? somebody watches kinda the point of the thread.
My post was in respond to another poster that people who watch FOX watch it all the time. I watch FOX on Election Day mostly. But that’s it, not a regular.

Chronic Fox watchers need a daily "fix" to counteract reality and the cognitive dissonance of trying to justify support for a regime that is led by a totalitarian A-hole of a person...a crack-pot that brings shame on the country every day of his administration. Without Fox, Trump would be playing tin-God at Mar-a-Lago and golfing every day (oh, wait...he does that pretty much already.) Well, he'd be doing it on his own dime, not taxpayer's money.
