Now, if we could just get some conservative money to start an alternative to Twitter, Google, YouTube, etc.


It's been tried .... it ain't gonna happen. Those three, along with Facebook, are too big combined.

Think about it.

They are the robber barons of their day. How screwy is the world these days?

Id rather watch paint dry than watch that network.

The average Fox News viewer is 65

Bring in O'Reilly


Most of the advertisers deserted him on Fox. That's the main reason he was fired. Why would advertisers flock to him on another network?

You've got to be kidding? If it weren't for her looks, this 24 year old would be nothing. She never has an original thought and simply spouts things she probably read on Facebook. She'd be a better fit on the Walton and Johnson show!

Yeah, instead of an actual "fair and balanced" network, lets have another echo chamber.

There's no such thing as an actual fair and balanced news network. If that's what you want then your best bet is to watch Bret Baier deliver the news and then turn the tv off. That's as close as you're going to get because there's no money to be made in just showing the news. It's amazing how naive some of you guys are while pretending to be some type of cynic. As a conservative I'd definitely be open to a new openly conservative network that doesn't pretend to be the news source of record like Fox, MSNBC, Fox, and CNN.

TBH, I wouldn't mind a commentary outlet that doesn't hide behind a patina of objectivity. I would especially like to see a wide range of viewpoints on the right side of the axis covered. I'd like a network that could embrace the rivalry of competing like-minded individuals. Frankly, more than anything, I want to see Ben Shapiro on tv.

His show got decent ratings but was flying space available for most markets. The time slot kept getting moved around on an almost weekly basis. It's crazy to think the money a network or station could have made on him but they refused because they didn't want that message out there.

He has been fairly resilient to the lefts attack on his advertisers. If one leaves there are 4 more lined up to take their place.

Big money is evidently behind this and given the climate it would probably work.

Bring in O'Reilly, Hannity, Tomi Lahren, Lauren Southern, maybe Martha MacCallum and some others. Who knows?

I'd do my best to support it - hell, I'd try to invest in it if possible.



They need to throw some money at Limbaugh and Levine.

That's pretty my my view of it also. His show is the best there is on TV, and I try to never miss it.

You gotta bring in Miller just for the humor, dude is pretty funny at times if you can keep up with his obscure references.

Would be awesome. Toss in Gutfeld and it would be great. Don't let Hannity or Waters anywhere near it.
