Stopped 30 years ago. Read the conspiracy news and nutjobs. Far more entertaining. Lately they have been more accurate.

I haven't sat and watched a the news for at least 25 years. It got to the point that I just couldn't stand the BS.
Some times it comes on after a show that the wife and I watched. It always starts with "First off, breaking new!"
If it is a slow night they still do the same introduction, some stupid stuff makes "breaking news."

I turn on the TV to catch the news highlights, in order to stay up to date. It is not in my nature to just sit there staring at the screen - always so many other things that I want to do. Things to make, things to fix, and sometimes things need breaking.

When I really need some downtime, I tend to read - or take the boat out for a moonlight cruise when the lake is quiet.

Cannot remember when I last watched the news. My life is much better without the Man telling me how to feel and act.

I can't stand watching the news anymore. It just undoes everything my blood pressure medication does. It's almost impossible to find a station with "news" people who don't spin things based on their personal views at some point, and their views seldom line up with mine. I just want someone to report the news using just the facts without trying to steer my thought process their way, but that's obviously too much to ask.

I quit local news years ago. If I want the weather, I have an app on my phone. I watch Fox some but it won't but a few years and it will be moved left, its already headed that way.


Thanks, Billy

I’m about there with you, Grizz. Can’t believe where our country has gone. I think I’m about done for a while and just gonna focus on my family, my job, and enjoying life!
