      Thank you for being honest with why you're upset.

        The difference is that tens of millions in urban areas can receive the four I named for free with a roof antenna or even rabbit ears, because they are broadcast channels; Fox is a cable channel that must be paid for, & even if you have cable service, "basic service" (which I have) does not include Fox--it has to be added at extra cost.

          My wife has relatives in Germany. They say that all the TV news they get from America is from CNN or such. All they do is bash Trump.

          The liberal people of Germany are quick to judge America and Trump from all the propaganda they receive yet THEY are the ones living in socialism, a 55% tax bracket, , over-run with muslims and crime.

            Like you I cannot see the point of paying for TV only to watch commercials too!

            I get that you think the broadcast networks don't have Trump's back. But they would say it's not their job to have it.

            But on the other hand your cup runneth over when it comes to the kind of free programming you like, on your AM radio.

            And whatever PBS may be, it's not vicious, is it?

                I don't think the Germans would swap with us right now. They think they're doing it better. Tax or immigration policy notwithstanding.

                Germany's governing coalition has shot up in approval ratings amid the massive public health crisis unleashed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Support for the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party has dropped.

                  Burns me up must mean something else? OK.

                      This was your post, and what I replied to. "I think some folks get upset that it isnt 4th of July every day."

                        Oh brother! You need to listen to the weekly contest between Shields & Brooks as to who can traduce Trump most soundly. But for sheer viciousness, Christan Amanpour can't be touched--PBS gives her an hour five days a wk to spew her venom.

                          I was in Singapore, watching a clip of the fighting in Bosnia, and a young couple had been killed. Someone said, "Why kill a beautiful girl like that? There are plenty of ugly ones!"

                          Just then Christan Amanpour came on screen, and someone else said, "Yeah. Like that one."

                            Real simple. You're mad at public comments, made on a British tabloid website, seen as not favorable to Donald Trump?

                            News Flash! Americans are the biggest proponent of American Exceptionalism. Europeans may not agree with you, your political choices, or your leadership's comments on any or all subjects you care deeply about. The 4th of July comment was merely poking fun at that.

                                Vicious means 'deliberately cruel or violent'. Again, not an adjective I would use for the meek souls that occupy PBS airwaves. Maybe a YouTube example clip?

                                Help me out here....why watch something you don't like? Or in Ray's case, visit the web site?
