Anti- Biden ads, Trump rally ads saying TEXT TO ---- for tickets, Trump leadsership ads ..🤮🤢🤬👎

Sucks since The Weather Channel had become my go-to channel whenever I had to quick-flip from MSM.

I find Nat'l weather patterns interesting.

I've lived in a lot of areas across the country so as I see weather systems move I can relate to what ppl in those States are experiencing.
Kinda of a been there/seen that, thing.

That fker has now ruined my personal connection ti the rest of the world.

Remember that the provider sells ads too.
Some of those commercials might be local content. Comcast here sells ads through EffecTV. We can always tell when the ad is locally inserted. Sound quality is different. Not inferior, but differs.
Even if they have ads on their site, the local ads wouldn't be there. Maybe you miss half of the PINO lie ads.
