What News Station to Watch? Login/Join 
10mm is The
Boom of Doom

Sometimes, I just want to kick back and watch the news on TV, or have it on in the background while cooking dinner. But finding what to watch has become more difficult, something that doesn't make my blood boil.

The major networks, CNN, and MSNBC are clearly out, as is the Dead Man Walking network (that shall not be named, so please don't.)

One America News Network (OAN) is ok, but feels amateurish. I hope it improves and fills the vacuum.

CSPAN is occasionally alright but can be as dull as watching a dead turtle try and roll over.

Is CRTV any good? Can it be watched on cable box or Xbox?

Anything else?

Hmm. I actually like Lester Holt on NBC. He seems like a straight shooter, but he also is somewhat controlled by his producers and the network. What is CRTV?

Lester could hardly contain his glee when he was reporting that O'Reilly had been shitcanned.

"Straight Shooter"? I guess you missed his dimowit marionette dance during the presidential election run up. He is as biased as any of them and I won't give him, any of his lamestream cronies, or their cable siblings a look. Screw 'em!

I much prefer a couple of the internet outlets for national and world news. I will watch my local TV stations for local coverage.

None, TV news sucks, every one is biased and have there own agenda. It is just not worth the effort to watch and get pissed about.

As a young man, I was in love with Vanna White. That girl could turn letters all day long.

Now all she does is touch a screen.

Fox Business has a great deal of news and other discussion without most of the obnoxious douchebags.

I really miss FBN which we lost when we went to a very stripped down Comcast TV package.

None. Go online. Most people can read faster than those ass'oles on TV can read a story off a teleprompter.

I Like OAN although at times it feels like a college production.

I love the little historical/patriotic things they squeeze in between segments, beats an extra commercial by far.

I love Final Thoughts and Tipping Point.

Another vote for Fox Business.

I got on to them during last fall's election cycle. No Bill O'Really ego. No Megyno - Woman Avenger. No Sean Insanity fashion review and 19th century Victorian novel drama llama.




They don't think it be like it is, but it do.

I'd suggest you rethink the question. How about, "Which station actually broadcasts news?" If you find an answer to that question, please post it here.

I have pretty much forgone all broadcast news since the inauguration. It's just ridiculous. At 0500 I turn of Fox while I sip coffe but that is usually it for the day. I check the Fox app a few times a day but I only open articles when something non-political happens. I am just SICK of politics 25/8.

I check the ONAN website but they use a lot of Reuters articles which are COMPLETELY left leaning so I stopped going there.

I DVR Brett Baier's Special Report on FNC and watch it when convenient.
For local news, I pick the one with the best-looking weatherwoman.

None. Local news that seems balanced, but that is it.

Lester Holt has been caught lying so many times, it's embarrassing.

Fox headline news on Sirius XM.
On line Fox resembles a tabloid with some news thrown in anymore
