I've been DVR'ing those and replacing them with my "news hour" around dinner. I figure I'm getting about the same information out of that compared to the nightly national news.....

The News is horrible
A few years back I had to stop my Parents DVR from recording it daily //
My Mom has early on set dementia and it was making her paranoid/ sick ( everyday is the end of the world)
Funny people bring up the Game show network ...
Love taping Old Family feuds, Pyramid, Press your luck , card sharks etc for her

Sorry about your Mom 
Sounds like the daily news shows was having the same effect on your Mom as it has had on most of the contributors of the political forum.

Thanks Brother ...Life is too short, Thanks be to GOD she is taking it in good stride and laughs constantly ..Crazy how our Brains work ... She cant remember breakfast , but remembers every random day in 1967 like it just happened ....
I remember my Grandfather before he past ( WW2 disabled vet / Political Science teacher ) Warning that the 24 hour news networks ( in their infancy at that time) were going to create mass paranoia by blowing every tiny mole hill into BREAKING NEWS = HYSTERIA as VOLCANO ERUPTS ...
The Internet is even worse =
FACEBOOK and social media is loaded with people who have 45+ FAKE usernames and Try to stir the pot in every forum/topic with angry hateful comments ...

Double ... Your Grandfather was clearly a visionary.
I read/watch enough news so that I can stay informed, but if I find it starts effecting my emotional state I simply turn it off.
As you said, life is too short. I have never understood people who repeatedly watch the same shows (specifically, cable news) that makes them so angry. I won't even watch a sad movie.
I'm on the back 9 of my journey through life, and whatever time I have left I want to enjoy. Getting angry/mad/sad/emotional over something that you have no control over is not what I choose to do with my time.

Girlfriend of mine stopped by and walked up there and ripped 'em a new a ss hole. Landlord is a doosh so I don't pay him rent anymore. It'll take him 8 months to evict me. That's 12 grand I will pocket.

I've been saying this for the past several weeks. Watching regular TV just p!sses me off. Even regular TV is throwing this Left wing political BS in our faces. Samantha B and Trevor Noah ruined TBS and Comedy Central for me.
Outside of the Family Fued, Billions and the former Last Man Standing, I can't standing watch regular cable. Sh!t, Bill Maher is a total jerk off but at least HBO isn't airing his ad b/w ever movie and show.
Cancelling my subscription to Optimum until the Devils and Jets start again. I can always catch episodes of South Park, Last Man Standing and Seinfeld b/w either of the 2.
Invest in Netflix and Hulu!
I used to be a huge fan of Bobby Iger and what he's accomplished with Disney. When he cancelled Last Man Standing b/c of its Conservative outlook, I lost all respect for the man, the ABC network and the Disney corporation.
Soft Elite Liberals trying to control people.
There's also talk that he will run against Trump in 2020. That's actually a scary thought b/c he could win.

I am 100% with you...
The MRS and I Never watch sad movies , Why Bother ??? I always tell her to invite her sister over if thats what she wants to watch
If you have zero control over something , why even think about it ???
Sounds like we are cut from some of the same cloth

I hadn't watched Wheel in years and for good reason. My wife gets pi$$ed watching it with me because I scream at the tv at poor strategy. Many of you may or may not know but years ago they got rid of the Free Spin for a wedge called the Free Play. When you land on it you can pick a consonant, solve or get a free vowel. I screamed at this woman who called T saying {You dumb c%NT take the F&cking free vowel!}
They added in the 3rd round this new wedge called the express. If you land on it for get a consonant right you get 1K per letter. Then you can choose to "Ride the Express" If you choose to you keep calling out consonants and for each you get 1K vowels still cost $250 and if you get a letter wrong you bankrupt. I like the concept
I called the Wheel of Fortune line and said I have a million dollar idea. The woman said "Do tell sir" My idea is when people hit bankrupt they lose their money prizes wild card etc. I think there should be a wedge on the wheel called BANK. If you land on it and get the consonant right you get what was in the bank of bankrupted money and prizes....She hung up on me

There is no such thing as "the news".
It is just people trying to sell Pampers, Beer ("stay thirsty my friend"), and tampons. To do that with high profit margins you need rating. You get rating by out shining the other news guy.
We are all doomed. 
Oh garbage. Just teasing. .....about the doomed part. The new really is TOTAL garbage.
