(Disclaimer: I don't contribute to MSM profits anyway, haven't had a tv or cable for almost 20 years, for this very reason.)

(131,199 posts)thick and fast, and haven't had the TV on except for Netflix since. I did it for my own sanity and blood pressure, but I hope enough people do it for them to get the message. Not holding my breath, though.

(886 posts)turned them off and canceled my streaming subscription that includes Fox, MSNBC and CNN. I refuse to subsidize them anymore just to get the ESPN package. Not anymore.

(73,909 posts)they regularly post stuff like bullshit nyt headlines and bullshit takes by cnn and msnbc hosts.
lotta ppl canceled their nyt subs. i need to cancel my wapo sub. i rarely see anything worth reading any more. i used to b a fan of jennifer rubin. ive been kinda dogging her there to report on the eptein files. despite a couple posts that got a lot of likes and rts for a week, she never responded.
ratings r down for both cnn and msnbc, and nyt has done a couple of editorials about sick fucks unfitness lately.

(12,587 posts)My oldest son was in the habit of making fun of me bc I always had MSNBC running in the background.
No more.
All of these cable news shows including MSNBC have lost me with their round-the-clock condemnation of President Biden acting as a pile-on to other MSM venues. There are individual hosts working in good faith but by-and-large the talking heads have joined the rumor/whisper squad.
I find it all disgusting.

(1,791 posts)I never watch local news, can't get MSNBC for some reason (even though it's supposed to be on my Dish tier), don't care for online news sites. I typically see something here, and either just read it and move on, or do some further researching.

(173 posts)I never watch CNN, but MSNBC I appreciate a few honest ones. I retreated from watching last week. I definitely will not watch for the coming two weeks. So disappointed.
I watch Randi Rhodes through her podcast. Have done so for nearly 20 years.

I only know what they say filtered through more balanced liberal commentators. Hearing them second hand reduces the impact of their propaganda.

(8,012 posts)I have no interest in watching newsreaders debate our oncoming cataclysm. This site serves well as a fact-based information pool.
Always distrusted Big Media. Period. I can watch clips posted by intelligent humans, but I have no interest in the Big River of Infotainment.
