Lower class version of Faux News as far as I can tell from the few second I saw when channel surfing.

Never watch it.

And they're also major hypocrites, having sought for years to use federal regulation to boost another cable channel that they created.

Its schtick was more ostentatiously no-nonsense news delivery at that time, combined with highly spun and ultra serious explanations of what viewers should make of it. There were no delicately tanned thighs displayed by Fox-style blondes (did they offend grumpy archmisogynists?), but it was strictly for those who couldn't get enough disinformation and agitprop, and Trump, from Fox.
