Skydance to Buy Paramount Global

19 hours ago, ABC 7 Denver said:

 

Fox News and MSNBC aren't news channels. They exhibit political punditry (opinion). They can brand themselves however they like, but just because they call themselves "news" doesn't mean they are news. Call a potato whatever you want, but it does not make it a banana.

CNN as well despite any assurance that they are a genuine news channel.  If the channels' day is filled with punditry and opinion of ANY kind, that ship has sailed.

 

Sadly, the concept of a "news channel" is long gone.  The only thing that even comes close are the "live" variants like NBC News Now and Fox's LiveNow.
