Any way to trade many of these news channels?

Any way to trade many of these worthless news channels ie: ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, Bloomberg, FOX etc. for something worth watching ? I would rather watch Gunsmoke reruns than what these channels spew...

HI, I want to stop from receiving and paying for Fox News as they are not a news channel but a (Edited per community guidelines) outlet.

Don't mess with old people.  The older we get, the less "Life in Prison" is a deterrent.

You can’t remove it from your package. The only way to not pay for it is to downgrade to a package that doesn’t include it, if such a package even exists.

These two services on AT & T have been pushing lies and dangerous hate speech for many months. Last night, Tucker Carlson directed his viewers on FOX to approach anyone wearing a mask in compliance with the CDC guidelines, and demand that the person remove their mask. He further told them if they saw a child wearing a mask to call the police and Child Protective Services and report it as child abuse. This sort of reckless, dangerous, and possibly criminal (Incitement) speech has no place on AT&T streaming service and by paying to have those services on, AT&T is complicit in promoting these dangerous lies and hate speech. They must go. NEWSMAX is well documented (and currently being sued) for nightly promotion of political lies and intentional promotion of violence and hatred. Again, by paying to have them on your streaming service, AT&T is supporting these possibly criminal hate speech services. Its time for them to go!

That has been my attitude for the many years of them promoting lies and hate. However, when they started demanding that their viewers harass and attack me and my family, that is not protected speech and does not belong on AT&T.

i seriously doubt fox is targeting you and your family , in fact im 100 percent confident they have no clue who you are. you should do some research as providers contract packages where they have no authority over what channels are included. you can rant all you want but at&t isnt going to pull fox neither is charter,comcast, or any other provider because you dont agree.

For everyone that thinks a certain TV personality is a waste of space, there's someone that thinks that same personality is the cat's meow.

 OAN gives fair, honest reporting.  I also believe it is important to allow all perspectives to be heard.

OAN must be kept on Direct Tv or I cancel our subscription.
