How often do you watch Fox News?
« on: May 12, 2015, 12:28:28 AM »
How often do you tune in to Fox News and aren't arbitrarily subjected to it at various car dealerships, doctor's offices, quick oil change places, and fast food restaurants?

DUmmies love to announce that conservatives as a whole feed from "Faux News" like a baby from its mother's teat.  I don't normally ask about television viewing habits, but I almost never watch it.  I enjoy Bret Baier's show but don't go out of my way to watch it.  I skip over Fox News when I see it on the channel guide.  It simply doesn't interest me.  I don't care for O'Reilly or Hannity or anything else that makes me feel like the host is blatantly pushing a single viewpoint or agenda.

So... how do you rank on the mind-numbed robot scale?

Not a right and proper poll.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Direct TV has a Jewish channel, but it's mostly Jackie Mason reruns and some sort of Hebrew basketball feature.  Go figure.

I don't get to watch it as much as I used to...but that's because AFN mixes in a handful of FNC shows with MSNBC CNN and the rest of the alphabet soup that is the MSM.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

If SNY or MLB Network . . . Or Disney Channel/Disney Jr., or Nick Jr., or Cartoon Network aren't on, FNC is.

It's actually not on that much.  I didn't include my wife's choices (EWTN, Insp) in the above.  She occasionally flips it to CNN or MSNBC, and if I'm in the mood for comedy and/or fiction, I'll watch MSNBC with her.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

With 10 having responded I'm the lone "Never". Our TV watching is end-of-the-day entertainment.

My main sources of news/opinion are the morning drive show on KSFO (Brian Sussman, one of several who occasionally sub for Mark Levin), sites like PJMedia and Drudge, and discussion sites like CC. Were I able to listen to ConservaTalk radio I'd listen to Rush or Hugh Hewitt, but not to Hannity or Levin (style, not substance), and would avoid Savage; I liked Glenn Beck when he had a sense of humor.

I almost selected "never".  I think, in the last four years, I've watched it three times.

I frequently see it on one of the TVs at the gym, but I almost always have music in my headphones, so I don't hear it. But the poll specifically excluded such circumstances.

I don't have anything against Fox, but after a full day on the job, 1-1.5 hours of commute, working out, and such I need to relax.

IMO, underlying - I know, an appropriate choice of words - DU-folks' and other Libs'/Progs' stereotype of conservatives watching Fox News 24x7x52 is the horrifying fear that Fox's large viewership includes a large number of less politically focused people. IOW, a dread that MesSNBC, et al, have lost many of the the hearts and minds of ordinary people.

Never.....because I don't have cable.

Side note.....I haven't watched a segment of CBS 60 Minutes in years but Sunday night they had a former Russian spy on and I watched it. When he was asked what the Russian's biggest fear was during the Cold War, his answer was Ronald Reagan.

I used to watch it a lot by now I don't. I get most of my news from the Internet in one form or another and then if I have a question about anything I can search for it on the spot.

I do not watch the news at all.  I go to several websites to see news and it's rarely Fox.  Usually I go to BBC.  Sad to say they reporters across the pond actually report on actual happenings over here.

Oh Lawd, Hannity bugs the shit out of me.  His whining is like dragging a fork between my teeth.  Beck bugs me because he is always crying then he gets on some self rightous rant.  I do love Rush. I do listen to him while working.  I'm just amazed how he can predict something and then years later pull tape from years before and he was right.

I am a regular watcher and listener ( Sirius).  Someone mentioned the mandatory Fox at car dealerships.  Don' think that happens as much as the Mistaken claim.  This is a conservative village and the hardcore leftists here have hit every waiting room in town with shrill complaints.  I see CNN most places.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

I chose never.  I only watch cable news when a major live news event occurs, and flip around for the best video.  It's better just to mute them most of the time.  The baseless speculation to fill airtime is as annoying.

Almost never.

It gets tiresome listening to three or four people trying to outshout one another.

I would pay to see an hour of O'Reilly interviewing nadin, though.
