... I figured you wouldn't have it on in the background willingly because you frequently talk about how cable-news can't be trusted, etc etc. (So I just thought it was something you were being forced to endure.)

From what I can tell... you don't look a day over 35.

I rarely watch Cable news before noon unless there are hearings - I check what's going on very early in the morning and then head out for our walk.

I know the interests of the owners but I still like to know what they're pushing on any given day.
