Oh, God. The President Is Watching One America News Now
"It appears the Fox News Channel has been insufficiently loyal to the current president. It might be hard to believe considering they've got a three-hour morning show devoted to boosting him, where the Fox & Friends dunces defend him from 6 a.m. onwards. Granted, from nine to noon there is a Serious News Show—America's Newsroom—which merely slants reality rather than remake it wholesale. But then we're back with Outnumbered around lunch. There are some more Serious Shows in the afternoon, broken up by the mind-bending lackey stupidity of The Five, before we arrive for the primetime hours. That's where Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and Laura Ingraham go back-to-back to reassure the audience of aging paranoiacs that the whole world really is out to get our president, a simple patriot and self-made businessman who's safeguarding America against the hordes of Others.
But none of this was enough, apparently. Not enough subservience, not enough uncut racism. The president is diversifying his information stream to include a television channel that makes Fox News look like PBS NewsHour. The leader of the free world, we regret to report, is watching One America News Network. In fact, he has been for some time."

And Trump's not alone. Meet Mike Gundy. Former interviewee for the HC at Tennessee and, apparently, a political rube.
Oklahoma State RB Chuba Hubbard says he won't participate in workouts due to coach Mike Gundy's OAN shirt
"Oklahoma State star running back Chuba Hubbard said he will no longer participate in Cowboys activities due to a photo of head coach Mike Gundy wearing a T-shirt of a far-right TV channel.
Gundy was photographer recently on a fishing trip with his two sons while wearing a One America News Network, a far-right, pro-Trump cable news network founded in 2013 and known to push conspiracy theories.
“I will not stand for this.. This is completely insensitive to everything going on in society, and it’s unacceptable. I will not be doing anything with Oklahoma State until things CHANGE,” Hubbard tweeted over the photo of Gundy.
Seems Gundy is a tad confused about political slants on TV...
“I tell you what's funny is, I was flipping through stations. I found one — I don't even know if anybody knows about this — it's called OAN,” Gundy said in April. “It's One America News. And it was so refreshing. They just report the news. There's no commentary. There's no opinions on this. There's no left. There's no right. They just reported the news. And I've been watching them the last week, because they're given us the news and given us more information — in my opinion — some of the positives are coming out. So, that was refreshing.”
Wow. Hayseed sporting the mullet ain't too sharp. Thank god we didn't hire this dude. He's gonna have to fight hard to win back the locker room after showing his ignorance and right-wing slant.
