This is pretty interesting for multiple reasons

[EdwinAMartin]

George Soros, Roy Singham give hundreds of millions to the Marxist/Democrat party in America. The Democrat party is over represented in the legacy media and NPR. So. you are correct, all they care about is money, money from Marxist/Communist donors, not traditional, objective, journalism.

Anybody who has been anywhere on a College campus in the 46 or so years, knows there is almost no 'objective journalism' at any major network or major paper or website. The 'moderates' even at Harvard are cowards and easily bullied into silence there. Same on the Right; National Review doesn't have near the standards it had under Buckley's watch as one sad example.

Maybe you should cut back on your meds if you think that Fox is any different than the other three.

It is.

They rotate in a different direction, though.

In any event, Fox News is more Fox Opinion, despite its name. But its opinion (however much watered-down it has become) is typically more conservative than the others. But, ABC, NBC and SeeBS rarely acknowledge their own political advocacy. Fox does.

MSN and MSNBC are so ridiculously bad I have to check and see if I accidently clicked on a Babylon Bee link.

Fox's local affiliates are better than average on the local real news stuff, at least in my area.

That may be.

But to be clear, I was comparing the Fox News Network’s programming to the broadcast networks’ NEWS programming.

The Fox News Network is clearly and primarily programming OPINION shows.
ABC’s and NBC’s and SeeBS’s news division’s offer what they pretend is objective “news” reporting. It isn’t. It is propaganda; that is, they share their biased liberal Opinions presented as if it were real “news” or based on accurate accounts of what “news” actually means.

I wasn't disagreeing. The local news affiliates run regular news, not opinion pieces. There is more to Fox than the cable channels.

I grok that.

You’re right. I wasn’t suggesting otherwise.

I just wanted to be clear that my references to Fox ADAs with reference to “the Fox News Network” and its cable shows.

Their Live Now channel is about the only one I will watch a Trump speech or anybody else's speeches on; they run the entire speech, unlike the selective edits the left wing Democrat channels run.

I think making up a joke making fun of FLOTUS' as an 'expectant widow' when her husband is POTUS is really actionable. Kimmel is toast.

No it’s no “actionable” at all, and it’s probably true. Melania is 24 years younger than Trump. She’s hoping and praying he dies soon and she’ll be rid of him.

They don’t live together, and haven’t for years. She doesn’t even show up on his birthday.

This isn’t a marriage. It’s a business arrangement.

All channels run full speeches. MSNOW also runs full Congressional and Senate Hearings. FOX doesn’t do that.

If that were true, they wouldn't be producing such excretable content.

It's all in the numbers. It's a very competitive market these days. It's not like the 1960s when there were the three broadcast networks with a few oddballs on UHF. The Internet changed everything with streaming movies and networks. Philo has over 70 channels and Sling has over 200.

Consider Fox News; it's in 87M households (91% of subscribers) but only averages 2.5M viewers in prime time. A household in the US averages about 3 people. 3 X 87 = 261M. So what are the other 258M Americans watching? Fox is the most watched followed by MSN at 1.3M and CNN at 1M. The rest are watching entertainment such as movies, comedy shows or the Golf channel.

While network bosses make mistakes, it's all about the money. They'll keep showing shows that people watch and cancel those they don't.

The only conspiracy in American television is to make money.

Anyone who fearmongers about the content of television are uninformed people, especially if claiming it's the LW, Marxist, Communist Jews.

If money making were the only goal terrible woke content that few care to watch, wouldn't be being produced in such quantity.

I watch none of them any longer. Too much crap. Not enough content.

Because I can watch a brief excerpt and interpret what the intent is very quickly.

Helen of Troy was a Greek woman. To cast a black actress to portray her is idiotic.

It would be like casting Sean Connery to portray Martin Luther King. Sheer idiocy.

So you lied about not watching. Interesting. Which ones do you peek at?

Why do you GAS what investors choose to invest their money? Are you anti-capitalism? Are you a Russian communist? A monarchist or fascist? Just anti-American in general?

BTW, not only is Helen of Troy probably a myth, but, like Jesus, if she did exist, she would have been Mediterranean in appearance meaning she was brown.
