And they make the local anchors read their propaganda BS. I never watch them.

Except a few months back when I participated in a local protest against the Idiot-in-Chief. It was an upbeat and passionate march in our town square. Lots of people driving by honking their support (OK, and a few middle fingers). But to watch the news that night on that channel, you would have thought it was Armageddon!

No more.

Sorry you are forced to pay for that crap. I'm still on cable and they won't disengage Fox from the "package" of channels.
