I work 2 1/2 jobs and don't have time to watch fox or any other news channel. I get all my news from conservative cave.

I used to try to catch Bret Baier's show every day, but nowadays I'm always busy with other things and rarely watch Fox at all.

A little bit more than never, but not much.  I don't have cable--I pay to have garbage hauled away from my house, I'd be a fool to pay to have it piped in.  Not that Fox News is garbage, I'm talking about cable TV in general.  I do watch Fox News if I am staying in a motel or visiting my mother.  And I occasionally catch Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace since I get it for free over the air.

I work for the Anaheim Angels during baseball season. The season is approximately 6 months therefore I count it as a half job.

yep.  We shoot during the National Anthem, Player introductions, any homerun for the Angels and a victory volley of the Angels win.

This was a shot that captured a comet just leaving the tube during the Anthem on opening day


On the subject of watching Fox News. I find it interestnig that the majority of us conservative knuckledraggers on this site don't watch Fox on a regular basis or at all. This kinda shoots down the DUmmies claim that we are a bunch of brainwashed zombies who have to turn to Fox for our daily instructions on how to think and who to hate.

I might turn to Fox News on election day.  Perhaps if there is breaking news during the rare times I'm home.

Did discover a really cool overnight radio show about a year ago, Red Eye Radio based out of DFW but is a national broadcast.  It is on from midnight to 5 am Central time.  The best part is their smartphone app.  They post podcasts every morning following their show.  You can listen to five hours without commercials as they are edited out, which cuts the time down to about 3 hours.

The two hosts are very entertaining, and their beliefs would fit in well here.  It is a show very unlike Rush, Savage, Levin...all of whom I listen to occasionally.  Check it out.

Rarely have watched Fox or other news programs after Mitt lost. Started paying attention since the debate. Heck, I was surprised that CNN treated Trump fairly. Must have to do with dollar signs.

My MIL watches Fox (mainly because I have CNN blocked!  :naughty:) or listens to music on Direct TV, the "boss" watches the local news, other than that, no other sources of news other than the internet.

     I watch/listen to Megyn Kelly when I can. Everyone else is more or less unwatchable: O'Reilly is too much of a Walter Winchell wannabe, Hannity is the Right's Ed Schultz, and the others are just background noise. I cannot bear to listen to that smarmy ferret Shep Smith at all.

     I do not consider any other organization to be news.

I like the Five for Gutfield, Guilfoyle, and Tantaros, Megyn, and Greta. I didn't know how I'd take Greta coming from CNN, but she's been one of the most fair and balanced people there. I cannot STAND O'Reilly and Sean kinda gets on my nerves. That's when I watch it, which is rare. I'm normally on my Apple TV watching movies from ITunes, NetFlix, or YouTube videos. It's easier to get news from the internet, even Facebook. News channels will run a story 5000 times in one day. I watched last night because I was waiting for the fireworks in Ferguson.

I watch "Occasionally (1-2 days a week)" because that averages to around 5 to 10 days a month. And when I say watch, I mean I might see it for an hour, or it may be for only 5 minutes. But to sit down and watch FN, not really. And certainly not the political stuff at the end of the night. So more accurately, it's maybe 4-5 hours a month total.

Nah, I'd rather find a game to watch or a movie on netflix. Something where I can just zone out and watch things unfold at the end of a busy day.

During the day, I have FNC on for background noise, but if something does catch my attention, I go to the internet for more info.  I watch Cavuto and The Five, Greta is okay and Bret Baier is pretty good.

I hardly ever watch Hannity or O'Reilly.  The best part of O'Reilly's show is on Monday when he has Jesse Watter's do his Watter's World segment.

     I guess O'Reilly isn't a straight news program per se, but I can't stand his enormous ego and his incessant references to himself. As for Hannity, he just doesn't seem very smart to me. By the time he comes on, I have other things to do, anyway.

     Like most of my CC brethren, I have better things to do than watch television, anyway. This stands in contrast to DU, where they watch more television than my teenagers. I never sat through even five minutes of the Daily Show, nor whatever that other asshole did, and I stopped watching late night television in the early 90's.

I used to LOVE TLC, Discovery, and the History Channel, but now it's nothing but bullshit shows like Pawn Stars, Hillbilly stuff, etc. I can sit there and watch documentaries on NetFlix all day long. They have a massive collection of documentaries that's continuously growing. I can't stand anything on TV anymore. Every now and then I'll watch something like Poolmaster just to get ideas of what I'll do if I ever hit MegaMillions. If I had thought about it, I would have canceled cable right after the Superbowl and picked it back up this month before college season.

     TV is bullshit. It's either people pretending to be rich or endless shows with people competing against each other. And at some point, American audiences became completely fine with turning over critique privileges to pissy, faggy British men. Also, cooking shows used to be slightly relaxing, but now it's nothing but assholes trying to impress professional assholes.
