Those fox viewers are pretty amazing. I mean between the boat parades and macing protestors in Portland, I'm amazed that they have the energy at the end of the day to watch state run propaganda.

That is why most aren't watching cnn or msnbc.

I understand why Tucker is #1 eventhough he was unseated by Hannity. He is lighting people up tonight. Chris Cuomo was caught on tape with Michael Cohen dissing women and saying the media is not your friend or can't be trusted. Hmmm.....interesting.

They won’t ever see the way they’re played for fools because of the hate in their hearts. It’s amazing to watch it all unfold.

Watching Fox News does not make you a winner, it's actually the opposite.

Post like these are very telling. You're presented with a fact and all you can do is attack back personally. That doesn't reflect well on your political positions.

The poster seemed to claim he was a part of the winning just because fox was tops in ratings. I fail to see the issue with his response. No different than people claiming to be a winner because their candidate was elected. Kinda stupid

If their candidate was elected then yes, it's a winner. In this case, by saying that "it's the opposite" of winner, the post is calling Fox viewers losers. That's nothing but personal. A more adult response would have been to acknowledge that there are a lot of Fox viewers or perhaps you want to give a number that shows how many are not watching Fox.

Actually I was surprised to see this because I don't think Fox News today is nearly what it was under Roger Ailes

No, you aren't a winner just because you voted for a certain candidate or watched a TV show. No more so than bammers are winners because they bought a roll tide shirt off the Walmart sale rack

OK, I get that...but does it make them "just the opposite"?

And you personally declare yourself a winner because of it?

Actually if he’s an alum and active supporter I think it’s perfectly acceptable to use capitalized WE. It is a separation from the non alumnus who aren’t invested like your bammer example.

Caveat: as long as he uses capital WE when we lose too.

So is the poster also a fox News alumnus? Trump admin alum?

FoxNews finished #1 in the 25-54 demographic. CNN was #2. BSNBC brought up the rear.

FoxNews was #1 in all of television.

Winning probably gets old.

Who am I fooling? It never gets old!

Do you work for Fox or something? Do you have nice bonus check on the way? Cool

I agree with UTvolpj...if he watches Tucker Carlson tonight, he doesn't instantly become a winner

Ok that was funny ... but like I said I think you’re both right in areas.

Here’s another one. I too am an alum but I live 1000 miles away, am not a season ticket holder, and do not contribute to the university in any serious support sense. Take a local Knoxville business man who never attended but is a lifetime giver and season ticket holder. I’d argue he clearly is more invested than I am and probably more entitled to use capital WE.

I used to watch CNN and MSNBC all the time. I would only spend very little time on FoxNews.

I would like to watch more CNN and MSNBC but it is literally hard to stomach now.

FoxNews has a couple of conservative shows at night but much of the day time reporting is objective and fair. Even with Tucker, though he is conservative leaning he has called out Trump and the Republicans numerous times.

With CNN and MSNBC they try to come off as journalists at night in order to trick people into thinking they're just reporters but they are political hacks, and their daytime programming is just as bad. There is literally no break from them doing the Democrats bidding. It is better to watch the local news.

I don't think it's terribly productive to argue who can say "we" when it comes to sports teams but I don't think anyone is more qualified than someone who paid tuition for 3-5 yrs. It's your school and nothing will ever change that.

Ok on that we agree. For sports programs the WE is really up for grabs. But yeah you only have one alma mater. The University of Tennessee is MY alma mater.
