I used to watch CNN and even MSNBC years ago and thought they were basically unbiased or at least very professional in that regard. I tried FOX and thought is was more right leaning than CNN was left leaning, but now CNN is as bad or worse than FOX is.

I don't even watch TV anymore except during FB season. I just stream everything. And I try to stay away from any political centered site online.

Good idea, I'm about ready to cut cord on cable TV and go just with over the air and internet. Netflix and Sling TV for $30/mo. Sling has ESPN channels.

Yep. There is no news. Every one is a 24/7 editorial network.

Do it. You won't be sorry. I cut the cord and couldn't be happier. I didn't even have Sling. I'm fine with Netflix, Amazon, YouTube Red and Watch ESPN. I avoid politics and religion like they're plague. Yuck.

How do you use WatchESPN?

Started YouTube on your recommendation 6 weeks ago and you were right. Good stuff. No more $200+ to Comcast for me.

I don't, I use the ESPN app if there is a game on.

I haven't watched any major news sources for a long time. I still think overall Fox tries to be balanced a bit more, the others don't even try to hide their hate for America.

I use my brother's password. He's a news junkie and can't cut the cord.

I did the same thing over a year ago and haven't looked back. It's great.

That's because "news" channels rarely play any actual news, and it's been like that for a long long time now.
If you look at their program scheduling they'll have like 1-2 hours a day at most labeled "News", the rest of the day is labeled "Talk Show" "Opinion show" or what have you.

Cut the cord, bro. Haven't seen it mentioned but PlayStation Vue is great. Pick up a nice HD antenna for local stations and you are set.

In every study ever conducted, the news content on Fox is the most independent of all networks.
Note- News content is not the same as editorial content.
