3. I like the lack of

Hysteria,and the deeper level discussion.

And no talking points or other republican bullshit.
Wish news was like this all the time

4. COMCAST owns MSNBC and Sky and is now actively cross promoting their products. n/t

5. If sky news has less republicans

On air nobody yammering about what they think is great. Wish it wasent 2 am when sky news came on. I need to sleep. Dammit.

Anyways goodnight DU.

6. Sky is part of Comcast now...?

I thought it was still owned by Murdoch. No wonder it now seems to be free of bias.

7. He got out of Sky in 2018...

10. Murdoch still owns "Sky News Australia"

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sky_News_Australia

Sky News Australia is a right-wing Australian 24-hour cable and satellite news channel available on the Foxtel, Optus Television, and Flash News ...

Since its takeover by the Murdoch family in 2016, and the subsequent sale of Murdoch's remaining shares in Sky Britain to Comcast, Sky News Australia has no relation to the British Sky News.

8. Good news...I turned it on tonight as well

Nice to have more than just BBC World to turn to...when I was in Europe last fall my wife and I noted the HUGE differences in news coverage and TV in general...suffice it to say, they don't let people come on and spew nothing but inuendo and fact-free partisan rants every 15 minutes!

11. Love the Scottish student, with broad Scottish accent, buying an emergency van

and driving it to the UKR border to donate. Not the first time he's donated emergency vans.
BTW - His name is Umran Ali Javaid.

12. My husband noticed this earlier (we're in Calif) & wondered. Thank you all; I just shared your posts

…with him.

Remember when MSNBC used to switch to prison porn after Rachel? Ugh. That seems to be gone for good, for which I am thankful.

13. I'm In Portugal Watching Sky News Right Now

Surfing Latest Threads. Good job MSNBC. Better than 3rd re-runs of shows I watched already.

14. Hopefully They Will Replace Murder TV On The Weekends With SkyNews

I know who dunning on every show. I'm too lazy to push the button on the remote to change channels.

15. They've been airing Sky for at least a few weeks now.

I like it, and with rapidly developing events, MSNBC can keep up with breaking news. MSNBC has never had the same resources as CNN for overnight coverage, and I think this makes more sense than rerunning the previous night’s shows.

I’m not sure, though, if this includes weekends. I’m typically not up that early to see.

[Raine]

16. I've been watching it all week

I really like it. It's nce to have news that's neutral without partisan commentary.
