What is DU's concensus of News Nation Cable News

[boston bean]

I never knew it existed until today.

1. Well.... I sometimes watch Ashleigh Banfield. She mostly reports on true crime stories

Other than that no. Cuomo moved over there from CNN. He has Bill O'Reilly on his show. No thank you.

2. FOX Lite

They lean strongly to the right (they employ Bill O'Reilly for God's sake) but not as far as FOX.

3. I watched some interviews CC did on youtube

and someone linked a yt video of the prison where M is now... they are kind of like fox light, agree with that. But maybe not as bad. I watch almost no news now anyway.

9. Who is CC?

4. They claim to try to be middle ground

Seems like they strive to do the both-sides style. Personally, I find journalists repulsive if they can't/won't challenge conservatives or refer to criminal politicians as such.

5. They lean to the right,

but occasionally they have interviews with Democratic public figures and general interest stories so I will post those videos. I lean towards Dan Abrams who seems fair in his role as anchor. The station is essentially a rebranding of WGN from Chicago so it wasn't as blatant of an attempt to develop a right-wing audience like Murdoch did with the Fox News Corporation.

10. Are they kinda like HLN? (The CNN spinoff)

That's what it seems like to me.

Mostly "news", but nothing heavy.

[Sneederbunk]

6. They give a platform to Bill O'Reilly

'Nuff said.

7. All television news and opinion is bad.

I quit watching a long time ago.

8. I've only seen their true crime coverage. I don't know if they have anything else.

But I don't have cable.

I first saw them two years ago when all those Idaho college students were murdered in that house.

I think the competition may have brought back Court TV.

Vinnie Politan is back at Court TV and he was my favorite back then.

11. They love Republican talking points...their graphics copy Fox

They are right leaning for sure. Cuomo's show is just full of Republican guests and he does a lot both siderisms. I don't really care for the station.
