  • Love this broadcast but ..

    Unfortunately, ABC has cowed to the pressure from far right extremism. We want the news that people care about not the news that “they”want to hear. Have some integrity!

  • Does not support Free Speech

    World News Tonight with David Muir has been my go-to for news each day. I appreciate all that David, Martha, Ginger, Whitt, Pierre, etc. bring to the news. However, as ABC and their parent company, Disney, so quickly participated in the curtailing of our first amendment right to free speech, I recognize that I can no longer trust this organization for my news. It’s a very sad state of affairs; I expected a vigorous defense of our Democracy from this company.

    This week's podcast goes from Sunday... more

    I’m canceling Hulu and Disney and anything affiliated with ABC for wrongfully canceling Jimmy Kimmel. I suggest you do the same. It’s time for action.
