I agree that Newsmax is not a serious news source. I sometimes forget they even exist, both because I don't know anyone who watches them and because they aren't shown in public places like airports or doctor's offices.

Ive never seen it listed as a channel
 
What makes newsmax relevant is that the people who complain about the media or fake news tend to point to Newsmax, OANN or something similar as the REAL unbiased news. I have plenty of problems with the media but anyone who pimps these news channels when complaining about fake news isnt a serious person. Its one thing to just not condemn them as fake and bias news, but most of these prominent people are outright promoting them as real news which is clownish.

I don't know anyone on this board who watches these outlets. I know I dont
 
I own up to my politics. Recognize and understand their source and history.

Rather than bash the source then propagate the refiltered and sanitized versions ?

For years I have proudly and unapolgeticly been anti (R) and further left than liberal (D) .

For example
Not an " I don't watch Tucker ..." then go on - virtually verbatim his last night program.
 
Sounds like Tucker may see some of the same current events from a similar viewpoint as someone here. I'm pretty sure thethe and I are significantly left of him on economics, and sturg has a libertarian streak that Tucker doesn't share. That mostly leaves the woke idiocy as a communal punching bag that we can all see eye to eye on.

Your enthusiasm for the woke stuff no doubt makes you more sensitive to that and makes the different viewpoints blur.

There's actually more legal basis for this than people realize. It would be quite easy for these companies to be regulated as utilities or else have common carrier regulations put on them that would seriously curtail their ability to discriminate (in the legal sense) based on the content of speech.

I don't think this should happen but I also don't think these companies should be bowing to woke mobs and banning Trump but allowing the Ayatollah to keep his account.

IF ISPs can dodge common carrier, there's no way Facebook, etc. would get it slapped on them.
