Happy to be one of the 600K!

Funny how my BP and anxiety have dropped dramatically since I went cold turkey...😁

marinap76.bsky.social•136 days ago

Me too … tried to watch Maddow tonight and just couldn’t handle it anymore. My mental and physical health means more than hearing anger inducing bullshit for another 4 years. 🫠

inmywoodshop.bsky.social•136 days ago

Thank you for this! I was asking if someone knew the stats on another post I saw. What about newspapers? Any numbers on lost subscriptions?

pinelandsjane.bsky.social•134 days ago

Not an enduring loss. Temporary. Many are so distressed that they have forgone news to maintain some sense of sanity.

marya-maryland.bsky.social•136 days ago

We need to fill the vacuum. That’s the really scary part.

marya-maryland.bsky.social•136 days ago

Yah!

thedevilsadvocate.bsky.social•136 days ago

I really don’t understand this vitriol towards MSNBC, Rachel Maddow, Chris Hayes, Jen psaki, and joy Reid Consistently exposed and warned about Trump, what am I missing?

starlightshelling.bsky.social•136 days ago

My problem is I just cannot hear them talking about Trump for hours on end . They will have to do that now. They will also have to bend the knee to him eventually to avoid being persecuted. It’s sad really.

thedevilsadvocate.bsky.social•136 days ago

I don't see Rachel or Chris ever 'bending the knee'. Chris does talk a lot about Trump and no doubt will continue to do so. Rachel, on the other hand, tells more nuanced stories. She educates, and I think that's a good thing. Like John Oliver on Last Week Tonight.

wanderlust2023.bsky.social•136 days ago

Almost a decade of it already. 4 more years is definitely a choice & people are protecting their mental health.

ciscosalvato.bsky.social•136 days ago

I’ve learned a lot from Maddow and Lawrence, but my issue with supporting any corporate media is how poorly any of them framed just what a feat of recovery President Biden accomplished.

MSNBC has been all orange shitstain almost 24/7 since he came down the escalator.

And forget actual world news.

thedevilsadvocate.bsky.social•136 days ago

I am very selective in who I watch, and Rachel and Chris were fucking cheerleaders for Biden, and presented facts and stats consistently

ciscosalvato.bsky.social•136 days ago

👍🏼

kankaym.bsky.social•134 days ago

Agree

thedevilsadvocate.bsky.social•136 days ago

I think Anderson tried really hard too.

thedevilsadvocate.bsky.social•136 days ago

Rachel & Chris certainly did their best. They held no punches.

sissydonhadit.bsky.social•136 days ago

💯 agree

lisadjbn.bsky.social•136 days ago

They definitely lost me, have tried to peak in occasionally & I'm always reminded why I just can't watch.

cathyandlexi.bsky.social•136 days ago

You know what they’ll do, they’ll just shift to the right more to compete with Fox etc

cathyandlexi.bsky.social•136 days ago

Exactly. I’m watching Maddow and Lawrence. That’s it

I haven’t turned on MSNBC since 11/5. And I used to tape shows and watch 7 days a week . Going cold Turkey has been tough but listening to them would turn my stomach

juicymarrow.bsky.social•136 days ago

Same. I was even in their Insights community! Now all of a sudden I am getting all these notifications like a bad breakup with an ex in denial. It’s not me; it’s you, MSNBC 👋

Nice. Are the post and nyt still bleeding?

tatig2.bsky.social•136 days ago

Stopped watching CNN about 6 months ago and as of last Wednesday, MSNBC is done. They wanted Trump back because chaos brings viewers but after 9 years, they're getting the opposite. I'm done.

wanderlust2023.bsky.social•136 days ago

I haven’t watched CNN for about 5-6 years & only turned on certain shows on MSNBC during the campaign.

Completely & forever done now.

Truthfully, now that I’m not interested in following the news I’m getting a lot more done after I get home from work!

daisyd.bsky.social•136 days ago

Right???? Me too! I actually sanded down 2 wood lawn chairs and stained them! Woo hooo! Been wanting to for a year! Hahaha!

morganfall.bsky.social•136 days ago

Ooh. That's my jam. What stain did you use?

I know a guy does stain and finishes for my industry and he color matched my wood floors.

daisyd.bsky.social•134 days ago

I’m sorry I just saw this! Late reply! It’s a light stain since it’s on an Adirondack chair made from old wine barrels. I wanted to try to keep as much of the original wine stain as I could but also try to more protect the wood. I hope I did it right???

This doesn’t make any sense to me . . . the American information landscape is being worsened by people moving down the news quality spectrum from cable to social media. If most are switching from cable to something higher quality, great . . . but the opposite is what’s happening.

gobearcats.bsky.social•136 days ago

I have to say MSNBC is still way better than the alternatives like FOX and CNN.

jpr93.bsky.social•136 days ago

I stopped watching CNN ages ago. Now I can barely watch MSNBC. I don't feel like watching them finger point and blame Kamala for America's stupidity.

frankieusa.bsky.social•136 days ago

O'Donnel and Maddow were warning about this for months. They dissected Project 2025. They made comparisons to the rise of Nazism in 1933 Germany. Don't blame MSNBC if you weren't listening to the primetime anchors.

iamwhoiam808.bsky.social•136 days ago

I ditched cable in 2016. I haven't regretted it.

ladyalegna.bsky.social•136 days ago

dinahcat.bsky.social•136 days ago

They chased dollars over the democracy. They’re still doing it now, trying to bring us all back with their feigned outrage headlines about what he’s up to (CNN). Yeah, we all knew what he was up to and where were these stories a week ago?

gr8fulchik.bsky.social•136 days ago

None of them made his rape urgent. None of them talked about his closeness w epstein. None of them reported the truth. This is how we got here. Instead of showing the world who he is they talked about biden and his shortcomings. I will never watch those that are owned by people who hide the truth

Me too, and gushing all about Melania. Till they criticized him ONCE. Then Trump went all out to talk about Mika’s plastic surgery, and Joe “ killing” his assistant. Then they hated him. Now back to liking?

tish909.bsky.social•136 days ago

That and Mika trying to get Mark Halperin re-hired, by trying to coerce his victims to forgive him, was the last straw for me on Morning Joe.

We pretty much stopped watching them both after the 1st debate and they were all about Biden being too old. Tried to give them a chance here and there before the election. Shut them off for good at midnight on election night.

abakker63.bsky.social•136 days ago

thechildrenhour.bsky.social•136 days ago

I stopped watching after MSNBC after they began trashing Biden. I stopped watching CNN when they began the full throated support of the felon last year. I never returned.

cathyhadenough.bsky.social•136 days ago

Plus, my son is an IT Engineer at one of them, so I have to support his workplace! 🤷‍♀️

juicymarrow.bsky.social•136 days ago

May I humbly suggest to all who watch local news (I among you) that you find out who owns your station? https://amp.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/jul/02/sinclair-tv-disinformation-conservative-news

cathyhadenough.bsky.social•136 days ago

My son works (and we watch) at a Fox station owned by Gray Media - NOT Murdock.
Otherwise, my son wouldn't be there.
I also know which local stations are owned by whom.
Thank you for the heads up.

nytewynd.bsky.social•136 days ago

I kind of wish I had been tuning into those stations so I could be one of those who stopped tuning in, but I wasn't ... I was mainly getting my information from DKos, WaPo and those I trusted on ex-twitter ... I cancelled WaPo before the election, getting ready to leave x, barely hanging onto DK

Curious. Can he name himself as Rubio’s replacement or will there be a special election? Or does he get to name the replacement (other than himself) ?

piratewenchart.bsky.social•136 days ago

Yes, he can name himself and he would be up for re-election in 28. Or he can choose someone else - there are no rules for a special election if a post is vacated here. He may put himself in to get more exposure for the 28 presidential race too.

john18.bsky.social•136 days ago

I think a lot of us just can't bear to hear the news right now. I love even-keeled NPR but I can't handle drive time with them. I want screaming, weeping, and gnashing of teeth or a nice rallying cry, Henry the Fifth style.

MSNBC is imperfect but still Team Blue. We shouldn't eat our own.

cinnamonalice.bsky.social•136 days ago

I think that part of it is just that people are tired of the whole thing, don't want to hear about Trump, and are hiding from the news until they heal if they ever do. I am trying to watch everything else but news and coverage of Trump right now.

thegrownups.bsky.social•136 days ago

I believe they wanted him to win for the tax break that’s coming. Also when he won the first time, I watched either CNN or MSNBC nonstop. Once Biden won, I stopped binge watching the news. They thought viewers like me, would return to and be glued to the news again. It’s just a shitty rerun, NTY.

kas1a.bsky.social•136 days ago

Good !!!!!!

buttigiegdem.bsky.social•136 days ago

All I read now is @propublica.org Rolling Stone & watch Radio Canada

flukestarbucker.bsky.social•136 days ago

Rolling Stone was on point! They are trusted counter information specialists now. Great work!

buttigiegdem.bsky.social•136 days ago

I agree

They had the best reporting during the election

massdisillusion.bsky.social•136 days ago

now do NYTimes and WaPo

gailborges12028.bsky.social•136 days ago

Proud to be one of those former viewers.

jdaunell.bsky.social•136 days ago

I haven't been able to bring myself to watch.

blueallylove.bsky.social•136 days ago

Haaahahahah

worriedresister.bsky.social•136 days ago

All who are dear to me have sworn off news channels. I graduated from J School, it’s a hard decision for me, yet necessary.

mcbeth0943.bsky.social•136 days ago

I’d cut the cable if it weren’t for sports. Haven’t watched CNN in a LONG time and stopped watching MSNBC last week.

I’m done. I’ll stick to my local paper and local dinky tv news station here on out. The mass media failed us at every turn so🖕🏻them.

maehemm2017.bsky.social•136 days ago

💯💯💯

mrsr16.bsky.social•136 days ago

I didn’t watch it yesterday, but made the mistake of turning on this morning. I will NOT listen to them denigrate the party or Harris’s campaign. Turned off immediately & am appreciating the quiet as I recover from COVID. I don’t need more stress. I will miss people like @mollyjongfast.bsky.social

octoveemo.bsky.social•136 days ago

I used to subscribe to their YouTube channels... but after last week I purged my YouTube subscription list of the channels. As well as any other non news channels that came out as full on Right Wing after the election.

longislandtonv.bsky.social•136 days ago

Last week was the last time I tuned in.

thebluenami.bsky.social•136 days ago

agree 💯. yes, i have not turned on the tv since election night…but if msnbc hosts had done their actual job instead of trying to play “both sides”…i could be tempted to watch. i’ll stick to credible sources online during this time…

1unrulysquirrel.bsky.social•136 days ago

😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

capamerica.bsky.social•136 days ago

I'll take a 5 min glance here and there on MSN (with "my" hosts) and then, turn it, don't think twice

cathyandlexi.bsky.social•136 days ago

Maddow and Lawrence. That’s it

thesailife.bsky.social•136 days ago

I only watched Lawerence but not anymore because I don’t want to give msnbc any kind ratings. I hope he joins Bluesky and eventually does a podcast.

unitedwestand4a11.bsky.social•136 days ago

Nicole Wallace has always been one of my favorites

antifavet.bsky.social•136 days ago

Add my name to the list of those who has turned off ALL cable news!! FUCK’EM

chigirlchase.bsky.social•136 days ago

Nicolle is a hard to break, but I might never go back

caligirl76.bsky.social•136 days ago

I watched Rachel last night but otherwise my tolerance is 0% for MSNBC right now. CNN has been 0% since they put MAGA in leadership over there.

18diannem.bsky.social•136 days ago

I have not had on
Network News dince 11/6

annesbu.bsky.social•136 days ago

Looks like I'm in good company. I had been watching Nicolle, but even she was unwatchable last night.

ednad.bsky.social•136 days ago

Absofuckinlutely! My last holdout was Maddow, I watched a few minutes last night. I'm done. Her open was reminding us of all the corrupt cabinet in the 1st admin, something not 1 talking head has mentioned in their "reporting" of new cabinet nominations this week. More amnesia, imagine that

sonialiddick.bsky.social•136 days ago

I can't stomach watching any of them 🤮

socratessnow.bsky.social•136 days ago

I plan on not watching cable news for at least four years.

habanerohoney.bsky.social•136 days ago

So disappointed in CNN for leaning towards the right, especially Dana.

pleasant-1975.bsky.social•136 days ago

Yes, but I don't feel that Lawrence O'Donnell deserves this.

defiantcicada.bsky.social•136 days ago

I'm never going back.

kbspsmfishcop.bsky.social•136 days ago

Exactly!

caliteacher.bsky.social•136 days ago

Ooooh I love this for them!!!!

boatmatears.bsky.social•136 days ago

This is exactly how I feel. They wanted the orange felon so badly because they thought our eyes would be glued to the TV. Not this time. And I know many more who feel the same way.

tessc1.bsky.social•136 days ago

💯

cathyob1.bsky.social•136 days ago

I don't have the stomach for cable news right now. They might talk about "he who shall not be named."

starlightshelling.bsky.social•136 days ago

Exactly

madkatsmum1.bsky.social•136 days ago

Well deserved

mamacass.bsky.social•136 days ago

ludquick.bsky.social•136 days ago

Good! Haven't watched since election and don't plan to anytime soon.

aviationnerd.bsky.social•136 days ago

I hope they all go under

janarchy.bsky.social•136 days ago

I'm seeing people saying that everyone should watch Maddow because she's screaming Doom Porn to the sky about fascism and all the stuff they're going to do (Project 2025) etc Things we already knew and things she didn't GAF about until it was too late. Why torture myself?

itspoetic.bsky.social•136 days ago

Exactly I haven't watched since the election

therewillbenoquiet.bsky.social•136 days ago

Me either. Done with MSM…they let us down and there’s no way we can forgive them for this.

itspoetic.bsky.social•136 days ago

And who would have thought MSN, not me.. it took me by surprise

daisyd.bsky.social•136 days ago

They can go fuck off all the way to fuck town. I’m so angry I don’t want to see any of their complicit faces. They are sell outs for ratings and this is just as much THEIR FAULT.
#BoycottMSM

pattic.bsky.social•136 days ago

It's the same in Canada. We have less than a year until our next election, and Maplemaga has been pushing hard for over a year. We have to do the fact-checking ourselves because msm is bought and paid for by Russia.

serendipityinfl.bsky.social•136 days ago

I love Rachel Maddow and Lawrence, but as far as CNN, l can't do it anymore.. they are constantly lecturing and gloating over Dem's defeat.
Scott Jennings smug and crass shit talking is too much.

lanna-mick.bsky.social•136 days ago

I haven't looked at sites like that for 'news' in many years, it's bs what they air.
There are so many good independent news outlets out there now, like the MeidasTouch News etc......

lynnshelly.bsky.social•136 days ago

I haven’t been on since Election Day but when I’m done pouting, protesting or whatever it is, I will watch Lawerence if he’s still on.

cjeuyp.bsky.social•136 days ago

I used to watch MSNBC on a regular basis, but even before the election… I found myself losing interest in their “Broadcast Twitter” approach of an anchor and various talking heads speculating about the topics of the day. The nauseating post-election analysis (such as blaming Biden) is even worse.

cjeuyp.bsky.social•136 days ago

Now… I will add… that we need to protect our journalists, because we *know* that the Trump administration will be coming after them. I suggest that these networks do some serious soul-searching and agree to strive for higher levels of journalistic integrity. Lazy journalism will not suffice.

ashleyjstevens.bsky.social•136 days ago

Good, they deserve it!

deekotheweek.bsky.social•136 days ago

jazzygirl.bsky.social•136 days ago

Yes, I’m just done with them. No one wants to look at Trump it makes you sick to your stomach 🤮

mikaelaskyesays.bsky.social•136 days ago

Where are you getting the data form

starlightshelling.bsky.social•136 days ago

Here Reuters , BBC , friend threads

mikaelaskyesays.bsky.social•136 days ago

They have been on the decline for some time. At this point amazing how CNN is able to survive.

alstewart.bsky.social•136 days ago

And it's funny (not funny) how all of a sudden, Andrea Mitchell, "steps down" from her noon show...right after the election. Reckon it's "Mission Accomplished" after helping torpedo the election. Her, Chris Jansing, & Katy Tur shoulda been gone long ago. Rasheeda Jones needs to step down at @msnbc

fifisdream.bsky.social•136 days ago

It was their job! They are owned by the right. They never did work for us.

time2speaktruth.bsky.social•136 days ago

Thanks for reminding me, before I left XHell I meant to drag @CNN some more about being the Quislings who gave Trump a free town hall to spread his lies. I'll pop over and do that now.

time2speaktruth.bsky.social•136 days ago

OK Fine. Got that done. I'm back.

unitedwestand4a11.bsky.social•136 days ago

I completely understand what you’re saying but CNN and MSNBC are one of the very few ones that still bring some truth so I will keep supporting them. I turn every time they try whitewashing things because I know they look at the details of win people are on and how they are speaking

passthesalty.bsky.social•136 days ago

I haven't been able to turn on the news since last Tuesday! I'm just still so sick of it all.

lizzyb1860.bsky.social•136 days ago

itwasthedukes.bsky.social•136 days ago

They deserve it. I will not watch an MSM broadcast until they stop sanewashing trump and his acolytes and actually start, ya know, reporting again. Stop with all of the “both-sides” crap. They just need to fucking do their job.

isupportblues.bsky.social•136 days ago

I have watched CNN for the last few years, but the way they have cosied up to Dump is disgusting, no integrity at all, the whole system is corrupt, they went out of their way to bring POTUS down while Dumps health is given a pass, i just hope Kamala and Joe are taking action behind the scenes.

spookymorales.bsky.social•136 days ago

Stopped watching corporate media over a year ago...so much less stress in my life. I will never go back. They let democracy down when we needed them most! Never again!
