Entertainment posing as news is how I would describe FOX and some of the MSNBC "news" shows.

Well, I must disagree.100%, this time. I'll only pick 3 things.

I say, lets speak about the last month only. It doesn't feel like "Entertainment News"when FOX vividly shows what is happening daily at our U.S. borders, on our U.S.College campuses, in the Square of our Ivy League Universities, or with our Beloved U.S. Marshalls and Police Departments..

No ENTERTAINMENT- AT ALL.

Sad, but true, but not Entertaining in any way, shape or form.
Newsmax is not entertaining either.

I have no horse in this one....but by way of clarity...FOX has a news division as well as an entertainment division. The latter is where/what you’d find entertaining. I’ve never viewed the news as entertaining....except for the weather girl(s)!

Cyber Attack?

For weeks, parts of the Internet have been down. We own an e-commerce business and have been struggling through the random outages. Yesterday it was Amazon seller central and PayPal.

My mom has been trying to get her TSA clearance for 3 weeks but couldn't due to the government's internal software not working. She also couldn't get a new phone last week because Verizon was down.

I think we are under some kind of cyber attack. This has been going on for weeks. If our livelihood wasn't reliant on the web, I probably wouldn't notice.

It’s solar activity, the activity on the sun is extremely dynamic right now. There are many articles on it. I’ll try and be as neutral as possible with this PBS citation LOL

if you watch this network in the morning, after looking at the people on it, and what they talk about, ask yourself, why am watching this dribble?

Let’s be honest all news reporters have their leanings in one direction or another, we all do even if we unaware of it.

But MSNBC and Fox have taken this to whole other level and as far as I’m concern, they should not be considered news networks. They either come to the defense or attack a position which they do or do not agree with to the point if you stand back you realize is nothing more than pandering to their viewers. Thier main concern are their ratings.

I LIKE TO BROADEN MY HORIZONS and gather as many FACTS as possible, funny how that works!

Does the name "Nick Sandman" ring a bell?

No, that was Fox that was fined heavily for not reporting truthfully on election results and those voting machines.

And recent findings are showing that many of those "lies" are being prove to be true...
