Add to that the court verdict and fine.

I must say I don’t understand the conservative mindset that enjoys being in an echo chamber. I’m a liberal, but I never watch CNN or MSNBC. Why would I? I already know what I think about the issues; I don’t need someone to parrot it back to me.

I occasionally watch Fox, because I like to hear what “the other side” thinks, and to challenge my opinions. But for some reason, conservatives don’t want to be challenged. They just want someone to confirm their biases, 24/7.

Anyone who thinks this is solely limited to Fox or Republicans is biased themselves.

Considering that that 2 million people aren't just keeping to themselves but are also influencing others, surely you understand that their impact is much greater than their raw numbers show

Negative. I'm right of center and watch/read CNN & BBC each more than Fox.

Point taken. Not all Republicans are in the echo chamber, and some liberals are.

I didn't ask you for anything and certainly wouldn't ask you for irrelevant links.

Whenever I have been forced to watch CNN or MSNBC all they talk about is Doom and Gloom. One would think that they would be happy that Biden is in charge but nope. They can't get past their TDS. He lives in their heads and is making them explode.

My wife and I watch "The Five" on Fox just about every night while we eat dinner and they take on the hot topics of the day and as serious and dire they are the cast still finds humor and makes the show entertaining. We are informed and entertained.


CNN is negative. Fox is Positive. No wonder why so many on the Left are miserable if all they watch is Left wing news.

LOL, Fox is "positive." That's hilarious. They are the worst of the corporate conservative media... worse than the Conservative News Network and the Universal Comcast channel.

Fox at least attempts to provide balanced discussion with Liberal contributors brought in to nearly every panel discussion.

But don't let me challenge your bias
