(2,574 posts)That's why comparing Billy OReilly ratings to Rachel Maddow's is useless until accessability is factored in.
I once read that Murdock/Fox actually "donated" tvs to public places and institutions (airports, military bases) with the stipulation that they be tuned to fox news. If this is true, it's disgraceful that fox propaganda is so easily (and cheaply) spewed in our tax supported
public spaces and institutions.
Good to see that Dish is finally charging Fox news. Hope Dish wins, Faux has to pay/charge customers, and their viewers
drops drastically. I also call Directtv periodically to complain that FoxNews ("Hate Tv" automatically appears on my channels without my approval or ordering it.
If Fox News is playing anywhere I am, I always politely ask that the channel be changed to less "upsetting" fare. Never had a problem.
