Fox News is incredible, same SH** again today, not covering Obama live now in Charlotte, NC. CNN
and MSNBC have uninterrupted coverage, Fox News nothing. No wonder the RW'ers are so clueless and ignorant.

7. Some are forced to watch Fox news in some work areas that have TVs in
customer areas and only Fox news is aired. It warps the minds of casual viewers IMO.

9. Well, yes that's true.
But it's still not surprising is it?

13. No, not really. Last time I was in the hospital for news I had the choice of
Fox cable news, Fox local, and fortunately CNN cable news was on the lineup... but with 100 plus channels, it was clear they had excluded MSNBC. MSNBC is on the local lineup here for channels. All the other channels were there but MSNBC. I had wanted to watch KO and Rachel.

11. If that is the case, I usually ask them to change the channel
If they refuse, I take my business elsewhere and explain to them why. I realize it's easier to do this in a large city where you have greater options than in a small town, but the more of us who do this, I think the lesson will eventually sink in.

6. They make inline filters for cable TV that will block individual channels.
You don't need to do anything with the converter box. The filter knocks out the channel before it gets there. Anyone dumb enough to think FOX is a "news" source wouldn't be able to figure out that you put one on their cable link.
