Yup, I haven't watched one minute of Fox since they called Arizona. That was the last straw. Not even Hannity, Tucker or Gutfeld. I'll go back a bit eventually, but it will never be the same.

That’s great.

As I posted back in Nov 2016 I dumped cable altogether.

Lots of free programming through streaming.

Might start watching news again with Newsmax or OANN, but haven’t watched any newscasts including local and haven’t missed a thing.

And forget sports as I don’t care any more. I was a huge Boston Red Sox fan and they finally won it all in 2004. While I sat there watching all the celebrations, the only thing that was going thru my head was the song
“Is That All There Is” by Peggy Lee. Lol!

same. though i didn't bother with the email...

people were still voting in AZ when they made the call...i thought the news channels had some sort of agreement not to do so until the polls were closed

i'll get my news online....feel bad for tucker, dobbs and maria though

edit to add even my gym has turned news off of all flat panels....i think the manager may have been conservative as the cable news was usually fox, sports, game shows, local news etc on the rest

The gravy train is over at Fox News. Murdoch has made a fortune with this channel over the last 25 years. He'll still do OK, but much of the audience is going to tune out. Participating in (leading?) this coup is the final straw.
