3. This is par for the course most places...

Honestly almost any place I go with public tv's tuned to news channels, it's always fox news. Stores, the gym, lunch rooms at business places.....

As loathsome as it is I honestly think it has less to do with an ideological bent as much as it is just a visually streamlined news channel that is easy to see and get what is going on without having to hear it.

Yes, I realize that's more pathetic than anything, and it's not to say we SHOULDN'T point it out and get them changed. Just that I don't necessarily think these places having it on is a political or ideological thing as it is an aesthetic thing.
