Fox is okay...but there are too many neoconservative "Never Trumpers" there, so...more specifically I trust Tucker Carlson, and if not him, then Laura Ingraham.

If anyone is uncomfortable with the likes, maybe it has more to do with their opinion and/or preferences that needs a second thought?

Or, if/when uncomfortable, simply stay quiet.

"Never miss a good opportunity to keep your mouth shut" is another way to point out that sometimes listening is the simple better way to go...
No. It's apparent why you designed this thread...but keep pretending otherwise.

Interesting how this thread differs from this one in the results.

Which news outlet do you trust the most?

No? Curious...

What is that reason any different from what I stated in my opening comment?

Say you are entirely correct. Is there a problem with anyone who begins a thread for a particular reason? As long as the intent also includes mature, intelligent, fair and objective exchange of opinion? What's the beef?

No one need participate in any thread after all. Right?

Checking Fox News as I do every morning, I find it "interesting" they are about the only news organization not featuring how Trump was "not happy" with the "send her back" chanting. Back-peddling on his own unbelievable comments and not exactly too unhappy with the chants from the look at the video.

Does this mean that Fox News viewers and/or Trump supporters prefer not to consider why Trump claims to have been unhappy with the chanting? I'm guessing yes, since I've read much in this forum about how Trump supporters see nothing wrong with Trump's racist insults. What's the problem with the chanting then? What's the problem according to Trump and everyone else who sees the obvious problem with Trump's many forms of bigotry?

Awfully hard to tell if you follow Fox News anyway...

Interesting. Thanks! I wonder why the difference...

Question in the other poll has to do with which you "trust" the most. Not sure that explains the difference. Maybe Fox News viewers are the more "trusting" sort?

I dumped CNN for Reuters, it was a good decision.

I don't stick to one source. That's a sure way to wind up misinformed.

Please choose and/or provide what source of news you follow most often and why. Thanks!
If you believe your poll's results, most who comment in this forum don't follow Fox News. A quick look at a few names of people who follow Fox News shows they follow other news sources as well. imo, you wanted and expected the poll to show that conservatives/right wingers watch only Fox and/or Fox infected viewers with the consrvative/rw virus.
