My gym has four TV screens with cable and

[no_hypocrisy]

it just banned CNN, MSNBC, and FOX.

It's the YMCA.

Nobody had a problem to my knowledge. Sometimes, there'd be both FOX and MSNBC. We co-existed.

This is depressing to me. I liked to go on the treadmill and watch Nicole Wallace and catch up on the day.

1. They should

only show HGTV. That’s what my eye dr. office does. Maybe they had arguments break out sometime when you weren’t around.

[LisaM]

2. Or sports.

I mean, it's a gym. There are a bunch of basketball tournaments going on.

[Rebl2]

4. That's an idea

[Mossfern]

3. I agree

there should be no politics at the gym.
One of the reasons I stopped going to my gym is because half of the TVs were tuned in to Fox.
(also because of back surgery ) I'm reluctant to return.

16. I quit the gym I was going to for 20 years because people would have all the

TVs tuned to Fox. I would see nearly every TV on the elliptical machines and stationary
bikes tuned to Fox. They also had a row of about 6 TVs in one area and most were on Fox.
The manager was a MAGA, he would set every TV on Fox before they opened, you had to
ask one of the employees if they would change channels. I finally got fed up and quit, then I
started going to Planet Fitness, they have a line of 20 TVs with 10 channels permanently set
on each side. They have MSNBC, Fox, CBS, NBC, HGTV, History, ESPN, Discover
and couple others, there are no problems. Another thing at the old gym people would
sit and hold up weight machines talking on the phone, at Planet Fitness you are supposed to go to the
lobby to make a call.

5. I always wanted one of those"Tv-b-gone"

things on Amazon. Around $25 and will shut off any tv in the country. Looks kind of like a car fob.

6. If you have a smartphone you can listen to MSNBC for free with earbuds It's legal

Use this link:

https://tunein.com/radio/MSNBC-s297990/

It's only audio no video. But, it's an option you might be able to use.

9. Thanks, I wrote it down.

Cut my cable and miss MSNBC. I usually look for videos the next day on DU. This helps.

[mucifer]

11. msnbc also has a link to the tunein audio on their website. It is live 24/7

just click on listen live

[multigraincracker]

13. Tons of stuff on the app

Local tv and radio stations. Like a gold mine for me. I have terrible vision and would rather just listen. I wonder how much Premium is?

[lynintenn]

7. My Dr.'s office always had the TV on Fox.

The Doctor's brother complained . Now it is on TVLAND. which shows reruns of The Rifleman, Andy Griffith and Wagon Train. I actually enjoy the old reruns and usually end up in nostalgic conversations with others.

[DemocratInPa]

10. No Gunsmoke?

Matt Dillon was the man

[ProfessorGAC]

18. It's On There

Runs from 11 to 3 central each week day. Right after Bonanza & just before Andy Griffith.
Been like that for quite some time, too. So, people who need their Matt Dillon fix are all set.

8. Don't they have screens on the treadmills?

At my local Ys, they have screens on the treadmills and stationary bikes that you can listen to with air pods, earbuds, etc.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

12. You can get MSNBC on your Smartphone

By going to the App Store and installing the MSNBC live app to your phone. You can be anywhere there is WiFi and enjoy your shows.

I do that as well to watch NETFLIX shows.

[Liberal In Texas]

14. Smart phone. Subscription to Sirius/XM. Hook up to their WiFi. Stream Channel 127 or MSNBC or CNN.

Get a pair of noise cancelling headsets with Bluetooth. No wires. Put the phone on the treadmill or in your pocket. Works like a charm.

[Emile]

15. My eye clinic plays DogTV and no one complains.

[Arthur_Frain]

17. Yeah, here in Palmer Alaska

The local gym nixed CNN, briefly abandoned fox, but they’re back, and added newsmax to the Cardio Theatre. Pretty pathetic.
