Wish Madcow and Schultz were off the list, or at least lower than Morning Joe and Cooper.

Fox is the place to go - if

you wanna keep up with the latest conspiracy theories and national election poll disclaimers from the parallel universe. Chalk it up to morbid curiosity over watching a sinking ship.

Fox seems to be the only network that has both sides of the story - backwards typist

Where Matthews spits at Republicans he has on his show and Schultz yells about them --I think he thinks the dems are hard of hearing-- Fox has respect for both sides...well, with the exception of a few times when Barney Fife acted like a jerk on O'Reilly's show back in 2008 spittering and sputtering when O'Reilly got him on the financial problems being the fault of him and his cohorts.

I don't watch Fox all the time but it's getting a little easier to watch because they don't lie like Andrea Mitchell and the rest of MSM. Plus, if they make a mistake in reporting a story, they apologize. I watch Bret, Shep, and The Five. I don't watch O'Reilly, Hannity, or Greta anymore. Hubs won't allow it 'cuz he hates politics.

My goodness. Your husband dictates what - TV you watch? SM

If my husband said I was NOT ALLOWED to watch what I wanted, well...I would never be married to someone like that. Sounds like a parent/child thing going on.

Proud liberal

Totally uncalled for.... - SK1

Does belittling someone else make your socks go up and down?

Sure. She signed it "proud liberal." - A weird bunch. (sm)

[ In Reply To ..]
and then to be proud of it yet. Ack.

He hates politics and I respect his opinion - backwards typist

Would you want to watch something on TV that you hate? Guess you would divorce your hubby if that were the case? Doubt it.

But, in reality, I really didn't have to answer your post, but it's posts like this that really make me shake my head.

Don't you have 2 TV's? We only have 1 with cable, - so luckily mine doesn't mind.(sm)

most of the time, but like me, he gets sick of it once in awhile too.

Could also be because Fox is only one voice - and the others are many

[ In Reply To ..]
If you are of a right-wing viewpoint and that's what you want to hear, Fox is your only place to go. If you are of a more middle of the road or left-leaning viewpoint, you have lots of other places to go. Personally, I think that's why Fox News ratings stay as good as they are. They are the only voice of their kind. Those of us who prefer a more reasoned approach have a lot more options and it spreads the wealth around a bit more.

Hey lady, Comedy Channel even beat out the "others." - How sad is that?

Media is dead.

This one happens to be Rasmussen, but it matters not because Gallup, CBS, CNN, etc. polls ALL show that Ocommie is a LOSER. BTW, Bush's numbers were nowhere near this low at the same point in his presidency.

Forty-four percent (44%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Inde ...

Clint Eastwood's bizarre speech at the Republican National Convention last week didn't go over so well with voters in Florida and North Carolina, but it didn't hurt his overall image, a pair of new polls show.

"DDonald Trump’s inauguration ratings were the second-highest in 36 years, according to Nielsen. The swearing-in of the 45th president was seen by 30.6 million viewers across 12 networks. The only inauguration over the last three decades that tops Trump’s number in the linear ratings? Barack Obama’s first inauguration back in 2009, which had a record-setting 37.8 million viewers. So Trump was down from the last new president to take office. But before that, to get an Inau ...

After more than 40 years of MT'ing, I have lost 80% hearing in left ear and 10% in right ear. This, according to doc, is definitely due to constant sound assault on my ears for all of these years. I now need dual hearing aids; the left ear to compensate for severe hearing loss and the right ear to prevent hearing loss. I will be getting them within the next week. My real concern is whether I will be able to wear either my in-the-ear headset or over-the-head head ...
