One of my favourite crap achievements was getting three pointless answers to the final question.

Yep, Bit like Jinxy and the BBC that he says he never watches, Funny that.
GB News doesn't make you pay a license which will land you in big trouble if you don't pay.

What is the strange interest that lefties have in certain TV news channels that they profess they’d never watch anyway? 🤷‍♂️
Don't need to when we've got "Tavistock Tucker" and "Marjorie Taylor-Jinx" to keep us misinformed about the content.

Mind you, before he finally hobbles off from this mortal coil Roops might even rebadge his own right-wing UK TV maouthpiece. He could even call it "Laurence Fox News"

Do you have to watch awful, repetitive adverts, though?

I never minded Tucker Carlson, I watched him, Oftern disagreed with him but sometimes i agreed with what he said. The thing with the "Stolen" 2020 election was that there has not been one shred of evidence to say Trump was robbed of it, Even 3 years down the road not one piece, Carlson and others peddled this lie not because they believed it, They didn't but it was because their audience did and money (Advertising) talks. No matter how many time Trump said he was robbed, During all the interviews on Fox News and other stations he never came with a file or anything to back up his claims, The Dominion thing has cost Fox News dear imo and i don't think Carlson will be the last to leave.

If the 2020 election was stolen the Democrats, Justice Dept, FBI, Congress, Election Dept, The voting machine makers, Those in charge of Polling stations would all had to have been in cahoots together.

CNN's "version" of Carlson, Don Lemon has said he has been "terminated" by the broadcaster after 17 years as a host when he found out his contract wasn't being renewed.

"Not one piece" isn't strictly true - there has been evidence presented but it was thought not to have been enough in any area to cause a different result.

Anyway, Biden has announced he will be running in 2024, or as the excellent Babylon Bee puts it:
