yepPeople that want that sort of conspiracy theory level nonsense will still find it, including OANN's website.
you should be proud of Tucker...How, dude? I am a devotee of Tucker Carlson and Greg Gutfeld. Two giants in the media world. I hardly ever watch OAN.

Republicans need to go scorched earth on these companies.DirecTV dropped OAN today, rejecting GOP pleas to keep right-wing network
OAN previously sued DirecTV, saying channel removal could force the network to shut down.arstechnica.com
OAN previously sued DirecTV, saying channel removal could force the network to shut down.
One America News has officially been removed from DirecTV, as the TV provider resisted pressure from Republicans to keep the right-wing network in its channel lineup. A DirecTV spokesperson confirmed to Ars today that the channel removal went ahead as scheduled.
OAN's future is in doubt as the network's owner has said losing the DirecTV deal might force it to shut down. DirecTV previously issued a notice to users stating that OAN would leave DirecTV's satellite channel lineup and the online service DirecTV Stream after April 4. The removal also affected A Wealth of Entertainment (AWE), another channel owned by OAN parent company Herring Networks.
DirecTV announced it wouldn't renew its carriage deal with OAN after pressure from advocacy groups that pointed out OAN "is a major supporter of the Stop the Steal movement," spread "election fraud lies that claimed the 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump," "stok[ed] violent calls for the attack on the US Capitol," and airs "wall-to-wall COVID-19 disinformation." US Reps. Anna Eshoo (D-Calif.) and Jerry McNerney (D-Calif.) had also questioned DirecTV owner AT&T and other TV providers about why they carry OAN, Newsmax, and Fox News.
DirecTV has since expanded its deal with Fox by offering Fox Nation streaming as a premium add-on. When asked whether it will keep Newsmax, DirecTV told Ars, "As we do for every network in our lineup, we'll evaluate and make decisions as we approach each contract's expiration." The DirecTV spokesperson also said, "I'm not at liberty to provide the expiration date of the contract [with Newsmax]."

ideological diversity.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.
Define "sufficient ideological diversity."Republicans need to go scorched earth on these companies.

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
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.
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”Define "sufficient ideological diversity."
And if the Republicans are told to "shove it!"?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”
I don’t think you’ve ever voted for a Republican in your life.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.
Then the carriers should be told to shove it with punitive taxes and property confiscation.And if the Republicans are told to "shove it!"?
Why?Then the carriers should be told to shove it with punitive taxes and property confiscation.
To force them to carry out an agenda amendable to our side.Why?
Define "amendable."To force them to carry out an agenda amendable to our side.
It's certainly not really "news" then, right?What's wrong with that? Is it a crime?
Whatever is convenient at the time.Define "amendable."
No doubt. Tucker is supporting supporting a guy who is slaughtering humans in the country next to him.I can make that decision myself.
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.Each Joe should be his own judge of what are "blatant lies" and what are "opinions". You have that right. No one should ever take it away. I find nothing as intolerable as another arrogating to himself a right which does not belong to them.
I am a whack-job for defending your right to be your own judge of what you consider lies or opinions?
