    So, given that concern, what are your observations / thoughts on the personal freedoms that we've been giving up for the past 12 yrs under W & O?

    And for nynj & DP......both of you are right, turn it ALL off & people will be free at last, free at last....the boobtube is off, thank gawd almighty we are free at last!!

    pink, you have freedom FROM things (oppression etc)
    not freedom TO things (healthcare, college)

    this is the major difference between moral people who work for a living and amoral people who think its ok to take from productive people and give to unproductive people

    Not at all. I'm not a big Hannity guy, I'll watch it but I like Tucker Carlson's show better. But on the real, Fox has the most fair and balanced coverage of them all. There are lots of shows with lots of different views and opinions, and some are even liberal or at least very skeptical.

    They provide a variety is my point. More than anything, they try and stick to the facts and most of them call a spade a spade. Trump gets plenty of negative when deserved. The MSM / DNC have told people Fox is bad, but since the beginning of the Trump campaign, I haven't felt they were overly bias. They destroy the MSM and the liberals, but it's warranted and accurate! So what's the problem? Tell me what makes them bad? Be specific and detailed please.

    Used to have cable forEVER. Been on an antenna for over a year. I don't miss ANY of it. I get around 100 channels, many of which can teach me Spanish or Vietnamese! :p The 50 or so in English are just fine. Average less than an hour TV per day now. I think my IQ is increasing daily.

    Fair enough. I don't watch InfoWars btw.
    That's not an example. Other than his being an open conservative, what does he say that is wrong? He gets a little wound up and neurotic at times but the facts are correct 99% of the time. So what's the issue?

    He's open about his bias but he isn't afraid to call BS on any Republican / Conservative. He has been critical of Trump and members of the house and senate. He doesn't continue to s*ck em off when they mess up, he speaks up. He'll call a spade a spade.
