from all Federal government facilities such as the VA, Military bases, etc..?
There has to be a way to shut that American cancer off.

1. Y'know, every time I see a question like this,

I ask myself how they would handle the same issue in Europe.

[brooklynite]

2. Yes, but...

AFRTS can choose which channels it makes available.

However, do you want the Government to apply the same scrutiny when a Republican Administration is in charge?

[The Magistrate]

4. They Will, Sir

Not doing something because the Republicans 'might' do the same is a mug's game.

7. +1

8. They will? You mean they haven't already?

[Beachnutt]

6. I think the rethugs do that already

From my understanding most waiting areas such as Dr offices etc on military bases fox nuze is always on.

Fact check: False claim that Canada, UK barred Fox News from distribution

https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/11/19/fact-check-uk-did-not-pull-fox-news-channel-still-airs-canada/8636298002/

Widespread social media posts claim several countries are limiting Fox News' ability to broadcast abroad.

“U.K. discontinued Fox’s license & threw them out, & Canada won’t grant Fox a license to operate there,” reads the text of the Facebook post shared on Nov. 11. “We need to do this!”

The post generated close to 500 likes in less than a week. Another social media user shared the post that received over 1000 likes, though it was later deleted.

But the claim is false.

Fox News is still operating in Canada, a spokesperson of Canada's regulatory broadcast commission, told USA TODAY. And Fox News itself made the decision to pull out of the U.K due to a lack of viewers, 21st Century Fox, the parent company of the channel, told CNN.

14. That's why I said partial ban,

I still believe Fox was banned for certain outlets in Canada.

16. no

I still believe Fox was banned for certain outlets in Canada

5. Not this again. NT

[Celerity]

9. not a full ban (which is not possible)

the OP said

from all Federal government facilities such as the VA, Military bases, etc..

10. Fox news should be responsible and...

Provide a laugh track after a point is made by all of their commentators, from each show.
In that way, they can’t be held liable for inciting violence. Then they can claim, the network is really for entertainment.

[jimfields33]

13. You do know the ratings at Fox News is only at most 3 million

Why it gets so much attention I’ll never know. If we stop talking about it, the news will only go to the 3 million.

15. Best idea I heard in a long time, canned laughter.

If Fox itself won't do it the other networks should do it when they are showing clips from Fox. Great idea, and it makes perfect sense.
