Good.

Here's a fun fact. Fox News makes more than $2 for every cable/streaming subscriber in the country (assuming Fox News is on the basic tier - which I think it almost always is).

So let's take YouTube TV. It has 8 million subscribers. That works out to $16 million a month in carriage fees and $192 million a year.

The many of us, whoever never, ever watch Fox News and despise all they stand for, are helping fund the channel's propaganda.

Now add the likes of Comcast (~$300 million a year), Charter (~$295 million a year), Cox (~$156 million a year) and we're paying them a TON of cash each year to be the mouthpiece of those who want to destroy our way of life.

IMO it's time to reach out to these companies, tell them you're ending your service, and you're doing so because you don't want your hard earned dollars supporting Fox News.
