1. This is a superb system

and one I use for most all cable news beyond Al Jazeera .

2. I use it!

FOX news channel and the local FOX affiliate are both blocked on my channel programming. That way I can't even accidentally view their propaganda and give them a hit.
Why anyone would patronize a network with such evil intentions is beyond me.

3. Guess your not a football fan.

7. They don't send me a check....

...why should I watch something that I care absolutely nothing about? Don't watch any sports. I won't be a part of the obscene salaries and ticket prices that have driven the less fortunate away from the stadiums.

4. I'm going to lower my media intake across the board.

As well as the Internet comments on said media.

All it does is make my anxiety worse and send my blood pressure soaring.

5. I never watch it but OTOH

This attitude would ignore the fact that it's happening. A major network could have influence, and we could be concerned about that without this flippant attitude that it will go away and have no affect upon our neighbors if we just don't watch it ourselves.

6. Unfortunately that doesn't make it go away.

It's still there encouraging and influencing Fox News viewers and dumbing down the discourse. IMO it's better to know what nonsense they're spreading because inevitably it will come up in conversation with my RW family and friends.
