DirecTV dropped OAN today, rejecting GOP pleas to keep right-wing network

How, dude? I am a devotee of Tucker Carlson and Greg Gutfeld. Two giants in the media world. I hardly ever watch OAN.
you should be proud of Tucker...

 
Republicans need to go scorched earth on these companies.

Like after the 2022 elections they need to pass massive puntitive taxes on cable and satellite networks Without sufficient ideological diversity in news.
 
Expect McCarthy to go after this next year, since GOPs mix Covid and the border; Ukraine and the border; On the Border

Oh my....

Define "sufficient ideological diversity."
 
A literal cult owned station gets chopped and the gop whines. Im never voting for a single republican again ever. I used to vote mixed ticket. Just **** off gop.
 
I respect your call that OAN is slime. It is possible for others to differ with you, no? Btw I am a fan of Tucker Carlson and Greg Gutfeld. Before that I was a fan of Bill O'Reilly

If the Republicans were truly interested in exercising power the answer is “you know what we mean and you better do it if you know what’s good for you”

And if the Republicans are told to "shove it!"?

I don’t think you’ve ever voted for a Republican in your life.

Then the carriers should be told to shove it with punitive taxes and property confiscation.

This is exactly what the left does to industries they disfavor
 
I can make that decision myself.
No doubt. Tucker is supporting supporting a guy who is slaughtering humans in the country next to him.

I'm glad you can make a decision.
 
Lol, no. Reality is what it is. There are no "alternative facts" and a lie remains a lie even if you wish it was true.

Take this "widespread voter fraud" thing. That's not an opinion. This has been investigated, litigated and and rehashed ad infinitum and there is absolutely no evidence that it happened. Repeating that claim is lying, not expressing an opinion. They could say "dOnald tRump should have won" and that would be an opinion. "Widespread voter fraud" is not.

Can you understand the difference?
 
Good

there should be standards to be able to call one's self "news"

OAN and Newsmax do not fit that at all and should be dropped from all broadcasting or they should be labeled as something else.

Fox as shitty as it is, is not going to be dropped based on money alone but also because if it is MSNBC could certainly find itself in the same realm . . .
Id be fine with forcing ALL news to some standards though, I'm all on board with that but one couldn't magically drop fox from mainstream and not also look at other mainstream news
